FSIPanel not working since latest update of PMDG 777

Post by Strumpy »

Hi
Since after the update of the PMDG 777 after setting the aircraft up with Fuel Qty and payload and also setting up FSIPanel with airport, runway and
long final, when I hit Move AC it puts me into the air and advises me that it is preparing aircraft but it doesn't load the FMS with the arrival and ILS.
It then asks me to hold brakes for 3 seconds which gives me control of the aircraft, but obviously it wont fly the ILS. All was working well until I updated the aircraft. It looks like the update to the PMDG 777 is responsible but i don't see anyone else posting my problem.

Hi,

Which aircraft do you fly ? As you said no other reports.
737, Fenix or other ?

It was working fine before the latest update a couple of days ago.

I had the same problem...

Needed to remove and reinstall the Navigraph Navigation data after the 777 update. The update messed it up for me and FSI panel was unable to enter the approach information.

Hi Thanks for the reply did removing and reinstalling the Navigraph data fix the problem?

exact same problem here. Tried to uninstall and reinstall the latest Navigraph batch, to no avail. FSIPanel puts the plane in the right position, altitude but does not adjust the FMC, no ILS frequency is inserted etc. Just purchased this product an hour ago with the intention to train my landings with the PMDG 777 and now this...any ideas?

Ok, do you have Program FMC ticked under Setup/ PMDG/PMDG777 ?

I guess the problem is your navigraph database, FSiPanel cannot find any approaches to insert as they are missing maybe?

Look at this post on PMDG forum
https://forum.pmdg.com/forum/microsoft- ... rture-page

That could be our issue, did you try to insert the approach yourself?

Cheers,
