FSLabs A320: no approach inserted following a repos

[fugu68]

Hi,

Have just installed FSiPanel Advanced for P3D4.5 and FSLabs A320. I notice that when repositioning, it doesn't seem to insert the approach in the flight plan of the FMGC, only the airport. (e.g. reposition to LOWW for ILS 34, and you just get LOWW in the flight plan.)

The example videos suggest the runway and approach should be automatically selected by FSiPanel. Am I doing something wrong, or is this the current behaviour?

Otherwise, is a great tool - really useful.

Hi,

Can you check in Options / FSLabs that you have FMC ticked.

Hi,

Yes, program FMC is ticked in Options /FSLabs.

Anything else I can try?

Thanks,

Andrew

Are you sure the runway has an ILS approach ?

[fugu68]

Hi,

Yes, I've tried a few different approaches, and in each case I just get the airport in the FMGC - e.g.

LOWW RWY 34
EGLL RWY 09R

Andrew

ok, and do you have latest AIRAC for both the aircraft and FSiPanel ?

[fugu68]

Yes, cycle 2301 (26 Jan) in both FSLabs and FSiPanel are installed with FMS Data Manager.

Seen as active nav database (26Jan-22Feb) in FSLabs FMGS and FSIPanel/Setup Airports Database - 26Jan23-

I will give it a try today and report back.

Hi,

Just tried today at LOWW 34 with latest FSLabs A320, no issues at all.
Check video below, what is the difference on your system?

Hi,

Thanks for the video - I compared with my system, and the difference is when the FMGS is programmed, fsipanel does not select the approach correctly. The rest of the data is input fine.

I have attached some screenshots - and have a short video of the entire mcdu programming sequence (4MB) but cannot upload here due to the file type. I can email this if it helps?
