Hi,
since one of the last PF3 updates frequencies cannot be selected via the PF3 web display, neither via browser nor via ingame panel.
They have to be adjusted with the airplane equipment.

cheers

*** Moved to the Web Display sub-forum as this is unlikely to be a PF3 issue ***

Hi Bernd,

Web Display doesn't interact directly with PF3 to change the frequencies, so I don't think that this is caused by a PF3 update.
Other than this, is Web Display working normally? Could you look for a file called 'PF3WebDisplay.log', zip it and upload it for me please.
(You should find it in the folder PF3_Displayer\PF3_WEB_Display under you main PF3 folder)

Thanks,
Martin (Web Display developer)

Hi Martin,
sorry for not being aware that this can be a web display problem but the log file will not likely be helpful :(
Maybe it's a formatting issue coming from firefox :roll:

regards
Bernd

Not a problem, we haven't documented the internals of Web Display.
Unfortunately the zip file seems to be empty - please could you try again.

Thanks,
Martin

Hi Martin,
sorry for being sometimes a clumsy fellow :roll:
The real problem with "PF3(web)display" is: frequencies are not selectable but must be tuned from the cockpit. This is new since some time.

Bernd

Thank you for the log, I can see what the issue is:

18:04:11 812 PF3 Web Display: Server Release 2.3.1 - Template Release 2.3.1
18:04:11 815 PF3WebDisplay.ini file not found, using default values
18:04:11 818 PF3 address 127.0.0.1, PF3 Display port 1010, WebSocket port 7339
18:04:11 836 Starting PF3 Display interface ...
18:04:11 850 Connected to PF3 Display ...

As the .ini file could not be found Web Display works like PF3 Displayer - it does not enable frequency changes.
You say that this was working previously, so this suggests to me that the .ini file has somehow been deleted.
If you create a file called PF3WebDisplay.ini containing the following then everything should return to normal for you:
[PF3WebDisplay]
ATCRadio=COM1

This, and other options, are documented in the Web Display PDF, which you should find in the Web Display folder.

I hope that this helps,
Martin
