Dest Info (Approach) Fenix A320

Hey folks,

Just wondering if anyone else has encountered an issue with FSiPanel attempting to enter Dest info on the wrong phase. It attempts to enter it on the "Cruise" phase instead of the "Approach" phase, leading to an incorrect format error and the Dest info being left empty.

1) Load into Airport, on runway with panel state "Active"
2) Open FSiPanel, check data and then select Long Final then Move.
3) Aircraft goes through the flows, moves and then when it attempts to enter the Dest info it attempts to enter it on the incorrect page.

After a landing I did reset back to Long Final and it seemed to enter it correctly that time.

Any ideas?

Navigraph is also up to date on FSiPanel, Fennix and MSFS. The A320 is also updated to the latest version.

Could it be an issue since the Sharklets update?

Yep, latest version. If you can't manage to replicate it I'll give it another go and record it :)

Could you make a video maybe?

Sure thing! I'll run it again tonight and either report back that it's a user error on my part or with a video 😆

So I ran it a few times and can't seem to replicate the issue anymore! I did have a small update to FSiPanel before my attempts but it was probably something I was doing incorrectly.

Thanks for the response and thank you for the great work you do on the program! Most underrated addon in my opinion.

Hey there,

just bought FSiPanel and noticed the same thing with the Fenix, interesting thing I noticed is that it seems to only happen during the first "iteration".

Made a Video of my procedure: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Odzs3p ... sp=sharing (don't mind the black screen for a few seconds, that's when I switched to FSiPanel for a few seconds to choose the approach and click on "Move").

My Settings are identical to LegateImperator, so MCDU typing speed is set to the slowest possible.

It looks like the double input on the "activate approach phase" button is too fast or the MCDU is lagging on that first attempt, but if you've landed and start the whole process over again it is working perfectly.

Am I doing something wrong here?
