When I request a ACARS ATIS using key #2, I only receive part of the message in the simconnect message window. I need to make 2 or 3 request to get the rest of the message. If I only hit key 2 once, I receive the rest of the message when I get ATC instruction.

Show I not get the entire message within one window

Thanks for the help :D

Hi I have had this problem sometimes with the frequences on connect, in the same box.

I solved it by clicking in the box with the mouse, all then appeared.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for the help

Must be a setting in simconnect....I use a dual monitor setup, so I use PF3's message box not simconnects so i'm able to read all the message.

PF3 uses FSUIPC's message box. Could it be that FSUIPC5 for P3Dv4 uses Simconnect to forward this message to the simulator?

I have the same problem, half of the ACARS message until the next communication to ATC.

Are ACARS messages displayed on PF'3 message box at all? I don't think so. Do you mean the box with the past messages that starts up with PF3 Connect?

Using WideClient here btw.

ACARS ATIS uses the FS Kneeboard which is not available with P3D

Could it be that simconnect has a buffer limitation? It cannot display all the message because it is to long? I am wondering why the rest of the message is comming in section (usualy 2 more message) when i recieve ATC communications or when I hit the #2 key again. Just as a example ACtive Sky is using another window (green background and white writing), that window seems to be able to display a lot more text. Can i configure PF3 to use that one?

Thank you for the support

Pierre
