Hello guys,

 

I'm new on Vatsim and have trying to make two flight on the network. All thinks are well, I can connect , can file a flightplan and so on but I can't take Mode C to on. When I press the Mode C Button it change to green for half a second and then it turns to gray again. Also when I try over my Add-ons Status bar in flightsim the same. Anyone the same issue? What can I do?

 

I'm using Win 7, P3Dv4.1, FSLabs A320

 

Best regards

 

Axel

Have you tried changing the mode within the A320 transponder itself?

I can't say for sure, but it sounds like a bug in the way the A320 sets the transponder offsets. If it was a vPilot problem, I would have heard about it more, and with other aircraft. I would ask them about it.

If you are flying the FSlabs A320 you need to set the Mode C within the A320, if it is off on the transponder within the aircraft it will not work at all in Vpilot.

Along with changing the transponder to TA/RA, You also have to change the top left switch to AUTO or ON, and also turn on Altitude Reporting 2 switches underneath it

Hello Joshua,

 

many many thanks, the Altitude Reporting 2 switch was the one who makes the transponder working in the FSLabs and VPilot.

 

Thank you very much for help.

 

Best Regards
