Zach Decou Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 Hey Jim,I have some garbled text on my G1000 (look at the top center of the PFD). Looks like it's displaying everything at once. Also there are some rotary PNG's on the bottom of the PFD. I'm sure this has been brought up in other threads, but I'm incredibly short on time, so couldn't look.Thanks!Zach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JGregory Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 Zach,What you are seeing means that the plugin is not loading/running.Please post your log.txt file, systems specs, and xp version.Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JGregory Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 OSX 10.6.72.3 GHz i5Thanks Zach.At this point if you were to upgrade your operating system on the iMac to 10.6 you would have no problems.I am still looking into this as the plugin should run on almost "any" mac system regardless of version.I will get back to you.Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglewing7 Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 At this point, 10.6.7 is the most current OS for Macs. Until Lion is released sometime in July. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JGregory Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 *** This issue has been resolved. ***Anyone who is running OSX 10.5.X will need an update.In addition the .png problem with the "TRAFFIC" and "TERRAIN" Softkeys as well as the MFD NavSTat window have been fixed for ALL users.Cameron has reset all download links. If you wish to update just download the Corvalis 1.3 update again and all should be well.Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k5vinnie Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 I just purchased the Corvallis TT today and have been having problems getting ANYTHING entered into the nav system. When I press the "DIRECT TO" button, the screen pops up but there is no "Ready Pad" button to allow me to enter airports, vor, waypoints, etc... Any help here would be great. Thank you. -Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

k5vinnie Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 JG,I followed the manual step by step. When it gets to the part where I should be able to use the keypad to enter in my segments... I can't. Not the support I expected. Everything else seems to work perfect. The main reason for buying this add-on was because the xplane10 c400 was too basic and I wanted real nav or at least better nav. Is there an update? My account shows downloads remaining... Does that mean there are updates waiting? Or is that max downloads for the product purchased?I'll add some screenshots later so you can see where I'm getting stuck.

JGregory Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 (edited) Andy, Please have some patience… many C400 customers are doing exactly what you want to do without any problems. Make sure you are following the instructions on Pg. 137 of the POH titled "CREATING AN ACTIVE FLIGHT PLAN". Note that the button to pop-up the Ready Pad is only available in 2D cockpit mode (as seen on Pg. 137 of the POH). In 3D mode you would use the Read Pad in the center console (there is no on-screen pop-up in 3D mode). All flight plan entries are done on the MFD, not the PFD. Rest assured that you can enter a flight plan and do "real nav" just as you wish. Thousands of customers are!

k5vinnie Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 JG, I just figured out the bug... and it's not a bug. I didn't realize it actually mattered which FPL button you pressed!!! The RIGHT screen's FPL button!!!! The little yellow boxes didn't show up when I was searching for clickable areas on the right side but did for the left side. Good to go sir. Works beautifully! -Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k5vinnie Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 OK. While I've figured out part of this I'm still having a problem with the waypoint actually showing up in the active plan window. I go thru, enter the airport, it finds the right one, when I press and hold ENT.. the waypoint window drops away but the point never shows in the active plan window. It shows the red line on my nav screen and is displayed at the top of the screen.. but not in my active plan and entering multiple points seems to be a nogo as well. I went step by step this time!!! -Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JGregory Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 (edited) Andy, It sounds like you changed the "Page" that you were displaying. This is controlled with the large FMS knob. It's easy to click on this by mistake when you are clicking on the small knob to enter waypoints.

k5vinnie Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 Yep. Figured it out this morning. Question I do have... Longitude / Latitude waypoints... When I click the L/L button it brings up a window that defaults to an entry +00.000 for the LAT. I enter my LAT as +39.170 but can't figure out how to change to the LON entry. Tried the knobs... hitting ENT... SEL left or right... This should be my last question regarding this topic... the rest has been working well... I didn't see anything in the POH regarding entering Altitudes for each waypoint entry that would feed to the AP. Is that not enabled? No big deal. Thank you JG. -Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k5vinnie Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 JG, Here's a screen cap of the LAT/LON where I'm getting stuck. -Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JGregory Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 (edited) Andy, The entry for lat/lon is formatted as: +00.000 +000.00 You have to enter the + or -, plus the digits. You do not need to enter the decimal points. After you have completed the lat portion the cursor will automatically position at the +/- position for the lon entry. I believe the display in the Waypoint Entry Window is cutoff and you will only be able to see the lat portion of the entry, which is something I need to fix. I haven't made a lat/lon entry in a VERY LONG time, so be warned there may be bugs that I am unaware of. Currently you can not enter altitudes for each waypoint. This feature is not implemented. This version of the G1000 did not have VNAV, so they would only be advisory anyway. Edited September 6, 2014 by JGregory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k5vinnie Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 I was able to program the flight plan I wanted into an xplane10 fms... save the flight plan with altitudes... and the load it into the corvallis G1000. Just can't see the LON part when doing the entry.-Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k5vinnie Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 Thanks JG. Good to know about the altitudes though. -ANdy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the waypoint entry process that appears to have an issue… I am looking into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
