Ho do I get my new GF MCP pro up and running?
I am working on this for two days now without any progress. I hope I can get some help.
I am on W10 and X-Plane. Just bought the MCP Pro. Installed GIT for XP. Installed GF drivers, used the fixer file. My MCP Pro is lighting up when connecting to the PC (USB2), then dark.
Starting GIT for XP delivers three green and discovers the loaded aircraft correctly (X-Plane is running).
Importing a zip-file is not successful. Each time I click Import, GIT closes down. I tried this for multiple aircraft. I already renamed the documents folder.
Of course I uninstalled, re-installed, tried and tried. Have been reading and following all instructions.
I have no idea what to do next. Any help would be highly appreciated. Thank you in advance. I am attaching the log file (showing two error messages).

This is your problem:
20:37:19 WinSock: Connection Failed: Unable to read data from the transport connection: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.
20:37:19 LUA Processor: Connect Exception - Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
GIT cannot talk to the GIT plugin running in X-Plane. Try disabling your firewall to see if that is blocking it. There is also a config file in Documents\GoFlight Interface Tool called LUA Config.txt that allows you to change the hotname (ip addresss) and ip port.

Thank you for your support. I disabled firewall, checked IP address X-Plane, replaced 'local host' in the LUA Config file to that IP-address. See attachment. Started X-Plane with TBM900 loaded. Started GIT. Log-file does not show any errors. Started import wizard. When entering the file by browsing and double click GIT closes and nothing happens. Restart of GIT is showing the errors again. See attachment. LUA Config changed back to 'local host'. See attachment.
Restarted X-Plane and then GIT: log-file has no errors. Filled import wizard manually by entering the file and path. I cannot click the MCP Pro box. Click Import. After a while is message: Complete. But nothing changed and the MCP Pro is still dead as it was. See screenshots before and after import action.
Could you suggest any option for further investigation? Thanks again.
Loek.

I have the feeling we are very close to success. What will be the final step?
Thanks!
Best wishes
