  • It is the GoFlight Interface Tool setup file.
  • Ok thanks, I download the software (GTI) and I only get one green light the other ones are red, do you have a step by step process how to make this work with X-Plane 11 and Zibo 737? I loaded the software twice the second time I disabled the firewall. Still not working.
    Thanks
  • Also I get a message of "pipe connect failed"

  • It sounds like the plugin is not running in X-Plane. During GIT installation, did you check the directory was correct for the plugin installation. If so please check the folder exists under plugin\resources in x-plane.

  • What is the name of the folder?
    Thanks
  • GIT Plugin
  • Reinstall and chose the plugin file but no change, not working.
  • What aircraft are you using? Did the Log tab show any errors after running the import wizard?

  • I am running the Zibo 738, in the Interface pic it shows b738 that I download from your site (profile), it sees the GoFlight unit but it does not talk to them, is it because Globaldata ref red X. Also the DRE mimic Mode is red. I use these units few years ago with Microsoft Sim and they all worked nicely. Your software seems a bit complicated.
    Thanks for your help.
  • edited April 2018
    What about the log?!?!

    Please run the import wizard again and see if any errors appear. If there are errors, please post the log here.

    Are there any errors in the Log tab when first starting GIT?

    You also need to physically remove the DataRefEditor plugin from the plugins folder to get the DRE Mimic Mode to go green.

    PS: Make sure you have read and followed the install guide here: https://www.pollypotsoftware.org.uk/support/user-guide/goflight-interface-tool-x-plane/33-installation/78-installation.html
  • DataRefEditor from X-Plane 11 or the Zibo 738?
    Thanks for your help
  • X-Plane 11
  • thank you I will try it.
  • You will need to run the import wizard again once removed.

  • Looking in the forum, the zibo config file is for version 3.25B of the aircraft. Is that the version you have installed?
  • Hold on! I have just noticed from your pictures that you have an MCP and not the MCP PRO. The config file is for the MCP PRO - hence why it isn't working!

  • your software let me change to MCP only but now I can not change anything to GoFlight unit.
  • The config file for the Zibo is not built for the MCP (only for the MCP PRO) - its never going to work!

    Best wishes
    Steve
  • ok, can I get a refund?
  • No - see the T&C's.

    The customer supplied Zibo download will not work with the MCP (only the MCP PRO) but you can build your own config for the Zibo and the MCP - that is what the product is all about - its an interfacing tool.

    David Williams is a customer who built the MCP PRO config file for the Zibo and if you ask him here on the forum, he may assist you in building the MCP config for the Zibo.

    Steve
  • How can I get in contact with him?
  • This is his original post of the Zibo files. https://www.pollypotsoftware.org.uk/vanillaforums/discussion/706/zibos-b737-x-plane-3-10o-alpha/p1

    He is the first poster on page 1.
