Got abit of a problem. I am using CLS 747-200 and I almost have my FDC set up how I want it. The pronlem I have is on push back my taxi checks start regardless of setting a delay to start when I am taxing. And also I have Before take off check boxed checked,but once giving clearance to take off, the checks don't call out.
anyone have any ideas please
many thanks
Drew

Hi Dave,
I am using the CLS 747-200 I had to set up in the performance editor.
What I have checked is as follows.
I am using the FSUIPC4

I have all the checklist ticked apart from before start and after start. I am using Auto 2.
Delay(sec's) between calls and response = 0.30
"ticked" Interactive checklist-response delay = 2 sec'ss

Before PB checks begin = 0
Before start checks begin =0
After start checks = 20
Taxi checks = 20
Before T/O checks = 60 also have the prepare for take off called at "Before takeoff checks"
After T/O checks = 2000 feet AGL + 90 Secs
Climb checks =8000 feet MSL "ticked"
Descent checks = 15000 feet MSL "ticked"
Approach checks = 1200
After landing checks = 20 Secs

Hope this is what you wanted

Many thanks Drew

Delay(sec's) between calls and response = 0.30 change to 1.0 or 1.20
"ticked" Interactive checklist-response delay = 2 sec'ss same as mine

Before PB checks begin = 0 add a time here say 5
Before start checks begin =0 add a time here say 5
After start checks = 20
Taxi checks = 20
Before T/O checks = 60 also have the prepare for take off called at "Before takeoff checks"

try this for now,you could try using 747-200 stock profile and changing the autopilot to 3rd party and re-naming it "CLS 747-200" without the quotes

Thanks dave I shall try those settings.

What I have notice and this might make a difference is. I am using AES as well. I notice when AES is ready to do a push back u have to release parking brake, does this start the timer? I set Taxi checks to 180 secs to se if it does any better but still calls out when I am being pushed back.

HI Dave,

I tryed your suggestion and it didn't work even with the default profile. I am not sure what is happening now as I am using Auto 1 now and I still have to hit the hotkey to active interactive checks. IE Taxing and take off. Also I set 60 secs for after start to check but it came on straight away. not sure what I am doing wrong. And one last thing the sound check you can play to chose voices doesn't work. I have the DVD version of FDC.

Thanks
Drew

Try another flight just using FS and FDC nothing else, incase something is interfering with it..

Once FDC is loaded you only need to hit spacebar once to set it off through the checklists..

as for checking voices,sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't..depends which voice set you are using..

Hi Drew,

First thing to do is ensure you are running the latest version of fdc, which is 3.14, and the only supported version.

If not, please download and install the latest cumulative update package from this forum and when doing so make sure you stop all other programs, especially your anti virus and any other security type programs you may have.

Once you're running 3.14, if you have the same problem, email me a copy of the black box log file from the fdc/logs folder.

Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S

Just copy and paste the latest log(s) from FDC/Logs folder to your desktop and then e-mail support and attach a zip file with logs enclosed..
