Cannot Use the iPad


Recommended Posts

I can't use the buttons on the iPad.  I can turn it on and off, I can dim it but it won't brighten up even though it shows the arrow for it.  I cannot click on the 3 icons on the iPad and have them do anything.  The icon turns to a hand and you can click but nothing happens, no checklist, AviTab etc, just nothing.

On a Mac if that helps.

Not sure if it is supposed to be missing or not but there is also no Autopilot on/off switch.  Goran suggested in the interim to map a button which I already have programmed on my HOTAS and that works for now.

We will look into it, on Mac to check if there is any relevancy. What OSX version? Also please post here Log.txt and GizmoLog.txt for further investigation.

This autopilot has not on button. Press the HDG and the AP will be engaged. Disable it with the trim.

I'm using MacOS Version 10.15.1 on an iMac Pro 3GHZ 10-core Intel Xeon W with 64GB DDR4 RAM with a Radeon Pro Vega 64X 16GB RAM.  Attached are my log files for your review.

Thanks for any help you can provide here!

Hello there. There a specific pdf file in the documentation folder, of how to operate the iPad. By disabling Gizmo you are disabling the aircraft completely. On the Gizmo tool tray (go with you mouse to the right edge of your screen) the last icon is to hide/show the iPad. There is an on/off button and many more,  explained in the documentation.
