Then your anti-virus prevented it from being installed.

You did the opposite of what you should do; this plugin is REQUIRED.

Probably easier to exclude all of XP

There are no “keys” for (most) X-Aviation published addons. From your log you appear to be missing both of the possible DRM plugins, I’m not sure if/which the DA40 uses. But likely you need Gizmo64 or X-Aviation plugin. And once in the sim to sign into your X-Aviation account to authorise the product use on this PC.

That’s good because I still had no idea.

Earnest answer, thank you very much. At the time no-one who was already signed up for the forum would have been aware of the security question(s), nor likely was anyone informed other than the administrator (who isn’t me), as the questions did not exist before. And QUITE OFTEN people come here asking questions about completely unrelated software or services. So, asking for a clarification was entirely reasonable at the time.

I believe it can also read standard XP FMS files for flight plans. Maybe @amyinorbit can offer some instructions.

Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean. The 530 is the GNS. Are you referring to the UNS-1 FMC?

@Jim&Barb This appears to be an iMac released in 2017, and macOS 13 should be available for it. And unlike macOS 12, macOS 13 is still being supported by Apple (and hopefully TorqueSim!). To quote EveryMac:

Step 1: Remove all third party plugins except "X-Aviation".

Left-most and bottom-most, I've found works most reliably in general!

I’m sorry this isn't an xPilot support forum. You should go to their website.

I think you're missing the new X-Aviation DRM plugin, probably it got blocked by Anti-Malware during installation. Or you disabled it with X-Organizer.

Everyone will get their turn in time.

XPRealistic?

On the aircraft avionics. Via AviTab on the included EFB.

Both? As above post says, there is automation called "Nav-to-Nav Transfer", which will auto-tune the ILS frequency when entering the terminal airspace area, and once APPR is armed and the aircraft is closing on the localizer, it will auto-set the front course and switch nav source to LOC1(2). What you're doing wrong is manually switching to VOR to set the course. Coincidently I did a video recently that featured this. It's 4k, and not zoomed in, so you might need to enlarge it on your end to see the PFD, etc., clearly.
