| Post subject: | PF3 Problems with MSFS ATR |
| The last time I tried a flight with the recently released MSFS ATR. PF3 stopped communicating half way through the fight. I was told that the reason was that the COM radio had been tuned away from the correct frequency. I did not do this and the PF3_Display no longer seems to work with MSFS. Instead I was instructed to tune FSS on 122.20 then hotkey 4 to establish what frequency PF3 thought I should be on. This is the first time I have tried to complete a flight with the ATR using PF3 since then and the same thing happened again, only this time when I tried to contact PF3 I did not even get the ding. I tried tuning FSS 122.20 but the hotkey menu did not update so typing hotkey 4 made no sense. 3 times now I have tried using PF3 with the ATR and PF3 has stopped responding every time. It think there is something going on here that I do not know about. Mark |

Well I don't know if you attached the wrong log but you received the following from Departure when you were at an altitude of 7566'Then, 47 minutes later, you were still at 7566' and you disconnected from FS

| Hi Dave, What you are telling does not make any sense. I had not used PF3 for several months and just started using to test it out with the ATR which I do not think has anything to do with the problems I am having. The first flight I tried I did not get off the stand. When I connected PF3 to MSFS it connected OK displayed the frequencies it should and tuned frequency for me to get clearance. But when I pressed 0 I got nothing back from PF3. and that was that. The second flight seemed to be going OK until I reached TOD at (14000) and as did not get and descent instruction from PF3 I requested descent using L+n. I got the ding but nothing else. When I sent you the log you said the frequency had been changed from what it should be and in future I could tune FSS on 122.20 hotkey 4 to establish was frequency PF3 expects. The third flight again seemed to be going OK until again I reached TOD again at 14000. When I requested descent using L+n this time I got nothing from PF3 not even the ding. According to the log this time I never climbed above 7566 when in fact I was at 14000. And surely PF3 would have nagged me to climb to 14000. It used to. The forth flight (log attached) was a recurrence of the first flight I could not even get clearance. I think something is causing PF3 to hang and I suspect the attached log is not going to tell you anything. Mark |

| Mark, I can only comment on what the log tells me and your third flight ended when you disconnected from FS before reaching 8000' |

| Thanks Dave, I now think this is a problem caused by FSUIP7 hanging ,so I will over there if it happens again. One thing though, PF3 can restart a flight in a CTD. So could it not maintain it state in a MSFS disconnect situation allowing you to reconnect and carry on? Thanks again Mark |

| I have the MS ATR as well,so i can check with a short flight from Edinburgh to Southampton using Loganair,just to confirm if any other problems arise, Edit: I can confirm no issues with PF3 and MS ATR,everything is of the latest version |

| Hi I now think the root cause of my problem is FSUIPC7 hanging and not the ATR. I have created an FSUIPC7 lua script so I can control all the main ATR AP modes using my GoFlight MCP PRO and there have been at least 2 occasions when FSUIPC7 has hung while I have been dialing up the altitude. I suspect PF3 would see FSUIPC7 hanging as a MSFS disconnect. Of course I have no explanation why this particular lua code would cause a problem with FSUIPC7, but this is the most likely candidate at this time Thanks Mark |

| Suspect GoFlight and FSUIPC 7 obviously not talking to each other,my setup is Saitek Radio Panel,Saitek Multi panel using SPADNext and haven't encountered any issues. It's a nice aircraft to fly compared with Flight1 Software's version for FS2004 and FSX, |

| We really need to see the debug_monitor.log file for the flight to assess what happened (not the xdebug.log). Cheers, Martin |
