CRJ-200 and vasFMC

[MacFlyerDK]

Sorry if this has been answered before....

Is it possible to use the standalone vasFMC mac version on the same computer but 2. monitor

and get all of the functionality found in the default embedded FMC ?

I could just try I know since the vasFMC is free, but I had some conflict issues earlier (now solved)

and I do not want to destroy my settings once again

Well, vasfmc is used in the CRJ already, so I don't understand your question.

Well, yes I understand that part, but I want to undock the FMC and PFD to a second monitor

running on the same computer or a second one.

The standalone vasFMC plugin/application does that, so my question is merely if using

this would cause any problems with the crj200 logic.

And the next obvious question is how to set it up.

Should there be an extra plugin (the one from vasFMC) or

is everything already inside the CRJ folders ?

Well Philipp should unswer this one, but the only way I know showing the fms in a second monitor with same computer, is extending xplane to that second monitor, because is not possible right now to undock the screens out from x-plane main program

Hi Peter,

You want to have the CDU console (CDU screen + keypad) on a second monitor outside of the X-Plane window. Am I understanding this right?

Currently, this is not supported. But I am working on a technology that will allow me to "detach" the overlay windows (popups) and have them outside of X-Plane, or on a second monitor.

This is a shot from the current development, where I use this with an INS CDU:

You can see the gauge inside X-Plane and the detached display outside X-Plane (and the real unit sitting besides on the table ).

Don't ask me when this technique will make it into the CRJ though.

Cheers,

Philipp
