ixeg 737 altimeter

[migliaracer]

Hi, recently been having a problem with the pilot side altimeter going mad it constantly reads 10,000 feet too high and cannot be adjusted. I deleted the plane and reloaded it from the  website and discovered its still doing it, Any ideas? Regards Ian.

Hmm - one thing I could imagine happening here is that you have "failures" enabled and suffer from a blocked static port... or some other plugin interfering with it and writing a wrong value to the dataref of the CPTs altimeter.

Or... is it not powered?

Maybe send us a screenshot? (also one of your overhead panel)?

Cheers, Jan

Hi sorry it's been so long.  This is my favourite plane and was working really well until I updated it to the latest version then the 'baros' went haywire. Failures are switched off

I think you may be suffering some interference from another plugin or add-on. To isolate the problem you would have to remove them (temporarily) and then add them back one by one.

Also try to display the DATA OUTPUT values for altitudes on screen (small green numbers) to see what is going on.

You screenshots are too small, I can not see what your altimeter is set to, but it looks like your Kollsman window value is different in the left altimeter - they should both be set to the current airport QNH value (or 29.92 and 1013 for standard conditions).

Hi, the right hand side is reading 2992 and is in  negative numbers but the 2992 can be changed. The pilot side is 9000 feet  but the baro cannot be changed  the needle swings wildly then goes back to where it was. I will try removing the plugins next. Thanks for your prompt reply, regards Ian.
