Precision Approach Plugin

[Alexander Cohrs]

Hi guys, hi Gergely,

 

maybe I missed it, but I didn't see any informations about the example Plugins in the Wiki, and also the Docomeent in the Plugin folder does not help me:

 

Could you please describe how it is set up for a certain airport? From the time Gergely gave me and a mate an access to the Beta forum for developing purposes, I remember you have to adjust something in the asr file for that certain PAR view. But I can't remember anymore.

 

Could you guys please help me with some informations? And just in case I missed it in the Wiki, please don't mind.

 

Alex

Alexander,

 

Actually the installed plug-ins are just example programs and are for the plug-in programmers to see what they can do. But they may also be useful for the users only. Give us some time and we will add new pages to the docomeentation that describes how to use them.

An example ASR for now:

DisplayTypeName:Precision Approach View
DisplayTypeNeedRadarContent:0
DisplayTypeGeoReferenced:0
PLUGIN:Precision Approach Radar:Altitude:364
PLUGIN:Precision Approach Radar:Description:EDDF 25R PAR
PLUGIN:Precision Approach Radar:Heading:249
PLUGIN:Precision Approach Radar:Latitude:N050.02.41.460
PLUGIN:Precision Approach Radar:Longitude:E008.35.13.130
PLUGIN:Precision Approach Radar:Slope:3.0

Altitude is Airport Elevation

Lat/Long are the treshold of the runway

The rest should be self explaining.

Hi Gergely, hi Stephan,

 

thank you very much for the help. I understand the intention of these Plugins, however, for me they are quite useful for controlling anyway
