Hello! I'm having trouble with the connect window in Vpilot. I am not able to enter information in the "recent aircraft" box. The dropdown menu (recent aircraft) is empty. Which is normal because this is the first time I am using vPilot. But I am not able to enter data into the white line either. It is blocked for text entry. Please help!

Just to be clear, you're saying you can't click on the "Callsign" box below the dropdown? It's the green box highlighted below:

Can you click on the other two text boxes on that row?

Dear Bradley,

 

Thanks for your reply. No, it is not the call sign window. I'm not able to enter data in the line above that (Recent Aircraft). I just discovered that I am able to connect in observer mode. But not in the "normal" mode.

Problem solved! You pointed me in the right direction. Once I entered the "type code" everything worked well. Thank you very much. Best regards, William

Glad you figured it out. And yes, you should not be able to enter anything into the "Recent Aircraft" section; it is a dropdown that displays recently used aircraft. If you haven't connected yet, that should be empty.
