PA-30 AND C310R PROBLEM WITH GTN750-650 Integration

Post by Harvard4 » Tue Nov 27, 2018 12:39 pm

I recently purchased both the Milviz PA-30 and C301R a/c. I have the GTN Complete software installed and using MVAMS selected the GTN750 option for both a/c.When installing the a/c I followed Milviz procedures ie AV OFF, Administrator rights etc.I am running P3DV4 on a high end rig.
The problem is that on both a/c I only get the pop-up version of the GTN750 which is not replacing the default version in the panel. If I click the pop-up
on the LHS Bezel it just cancels the pop-up. In the Menu bar I can see the three options for the GTN650-750 AND stack which if selected bring up the pop-ups.I have A2A's V35B Bonanza and the GTN750 installs correctly in the panel. I need help to solve issue,thank you.

There is on "default version of the GTN750" in the PA30 and C310R Redux. We only supply the mesh on which the F1 GTN750 will be displayed. We also supply the various configuration files necessary. If you used the F1 Configuration Utility, it will mess up our pre-configured system.

I suggest uninstalling and then reinstalling. Do not attempt to make any changes manually or with the F1 Configuration Utility program. All that is required is that the F1 gauges be present in the sim's ..\Gauges folder.

Thank you for your reply. I did what you suggested but I only get the default gns430 etc system.I checked for the F1 Gauges and I can see the following,F1GTN.dll, F1GTN_keyboard, F1GTNSVC.dll,and gtninterface.dll. I did not use the F1 Configuration utility program.
What am I missing?
best regards

I would suggest you start MVAMS as Admin, then select the plane, select the default panel and save. Close MVAMS and check that in fact the panel was changed to the default. Close P3D, open MVAMS again as Admin and select the GTN. Save and check if the GTN display correct

Hi, I did as you suggested but I only get the default GNS430 AND 530 in the panel. One thing is that the option in the aircraft menu bar top of screen does not list the gtn650/750 and stack pop-up as options.Only the gns430/530 along with pre-flight etc.

Hi, The problem was in the MVAMS it was not selecting the GTN options first time. I had to set the GTN OPTION TWICE in order for it to work correctly.
The same problem in both aircraft.
Thank you for help

Ah, yes that is an issue of which we are aware. This happens only the very first time one uses MVAMS to make a selection. Afterwards it works the first time. The programmer is looking for the reason. ;)
