[Femke]

Thanks for this I cannot view the .org thread as they have me banned for some imagined slight.

Works a treat now your a life saver.

Where can I get the remote CDU or link thereof? I'm a X-Aviation CRJ owner, but don't recall getting an email about this ... although it's highly likely that I could have missed the email ...

 

Very much looking forward to this! Cheers!

Hi Kris

If you got the CRJ, youv'e got the Remote CDU all ready.

Can you access the CDU on the same machine now, by entering http://localhost:18387 into the browser of your choice, or from a different machine if you enter the URL like this http://192.168.0.2:18387

Just replace "192.168.0.2" with the IP address of the machine running X-Plane with the CRJ loaded.

Look at the files Manual/Remote-CDU-Howto.pdf for detailed usage instructions. .

Thanks Cessna729 for the insight .

Lol ... I'm a right old duffer, I read the first part of the thread about how it was going to be released and then all of a sudden it looked like people were already playing around with it. You've definitely made my day!

 

I'm off to play with it now. Cheers!

Hi,

 

I just bought an iPad mini and had to realize, that the remote cdu is not fully displayed. The last line is cut off and thus renders the cdu useless. The cdu display seems to be completly locked, for I am neither able to pinch it, nor can I enlarge or scroll it in any way.

 

I guess the problem would be fixed, if Safari could run in full screen mode. I searched the web and tried all I could think of, but to no avail.

 

Is there a way to fix this issue?

 

Thanx and cheers

Hi Phil,

 

omg....believe it or not, I had read all posts until about 46, because I believed to have had read something about a solution for this problem somewhere and decided, that it was not in this forum. Should have gone on reading a few more posts.....

 

Thanx and sorry for wasting your time;-)

 

Cheers

Hi skipper, if you want to save yourself some time... try the "search option" at the top of this web page

How do you make this work on MAC? I don't ever remember getting the allow local network connections box. It works fine for the FF757.

[philipp]

If you enabled X-Plane once to accept connections, it works for all airplanes. So if you allowed X-Plane to accept connections when connecting to the 757 CDU, that will also have allowed it for the CRJ.

Hmm well it deffinitely works for the 757 but not the CRJ. Any ideas?

The technology is the same. It's literally the same code, because I made them both

The URL is the same, the port is the same. 

You are not by any chance using the no-network patched CRJ?
