OnCourse Software

Hi Dave and everybody


I would like to set FDC to play like this

- Every flight phases launched manually
But
- For every phase, every instructions played automaticaly

I can't find how do this. Is it possible ?

I've tried 2 different modes :
- The semi auto mode : in this one, I must launch the first phase manually. Ok. but after, the following phases are launched automaticaly.
- The manual mode : in the one, I must launch manually every phase and every checklist instructions.

Thnak for help.

Hi Luc,

SEMI-AUTO mode should do exactly what you want. If you definitely have that mode selected (remember to save your options) and it doesn't work as described then please come back to me.

I come back

I would like FDC stop the checklist phase after every phase, and let me launch the following manually (interesting to make some settings like FMC, or wait for ATC instructions between some phase...). But I've a problem. On my system, the "Semi-Auto" Mode doesn't work like this.

I've made a new profile (for the PMDG J41), chosen the "Semi-Auto" mode, some other things, made the checklists, and I've saved all this.
When I'm in the aircraft, I launch first FDC (CTRL+SHT+A). After, I must launch the first phase (PRE-START phase) manually. Ok... But after this one has finished, FDC launch the following phase (and the others) directly and automaticaly without stop

Hi Luc,

Okay I've found the problem... and it looks like it's been that way since FDC was first released back in June 2002 !!!!

I've fixed this in readiness for the next release which I hope to make available very, very soon.

Ok, wonderfull Thank you very much for this quick help

I keep an eye here for the next version (and for the next PFE version too )
