[SOLVED] FMS - after COPY ACTIVE no route-name displayed

[Stefan]

When i save my programmed route as described in the tutorial on page 18 Fig. 35, no route-name is displayed.

When i try to enter a route-name from the scratchpad by pressing LSK2 for recalling a route, i allways get the ROUTE NOT FOUND message. Seems to be a bug here.

For starters, could you check if the route is actually saved after you press "COPY ACTIVE" ? Does the file appear in Aircraft/X-Aviation/CRJ-200/plugins/CRJAvionics/routes/ ?

no, i don't have a directory Aircraft/X-Aviation/CRJ-200/CRJAvionics.

i tried to create Aircraft/X-Aviation/CRJ-200/CRJAvionics/routes/ and save the FP again - but nothing changed.

btw. when i press LSK2 twice with empty schratchpad, it says first ROUTE NOT FOUND, then ROUTE LOADED ...

[philipp]

Sorry, typo. The correct path is Aircraft/X-Aviation/CRJ-200/plugins/CRJAvionics/routes/

Delete the folder you created.

[Stefan]

yes, i found this directory with some files in it - but with strange names like ROUTE NOT FOUND, INVALID ENTRY, ROUTE LOADED and so on .....

they all contain flightplans.

Now i found, how it works at the moment!

It works different from the descriptions in the manual and in the tutorial - and different from the original Rockwell-Collins FMS

to save a route

1. first type the route-name into the scratchpad first (no automatic naming as described in the docs)

2. press LSK5 - route is now saved, but no name displayed

to load a route

1. type the route-name into the scratchpad

2. press LSK2 - route is now loaded, but no name displayed.

Estrange about the name not appearing, will make my teststings when I can

[philipp]

Confirmed.

Route name is not displayed. Fixed with next update.
