Navstax Nav/Com1 & Nav/Com2 are the same [solved]

[mallan157]

The Navstax Com2 & Nav2 frequencies are the same as those for the Com1 and Nav1 in the PA-30. Adjusting the frequency on either radio changes the display on both. The same is true on the 2D pop-up. (Its the Com1/Nav1 values that are shown on both units, suggesting that Com2 and Nav2 are incorrectly assigned somewhere). My Navstax stack works fine on the Turbo Otter and C310R - its only the PA-30 that has this issue. The default radios on the PA-30 are OK. My original install was 181112 but the 200302 install does the same thing with Navstax.

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Does your system meet the sim's requirements?
YES
Did you temporarily disable your anti-virus program during the download process?
YES
Before installing did you disable UAC. (User Account Control)?
YES
Did you install, and are you running the sim as an admin?
YES
Before running the sim did you make sure the FSX/P3D directory is off limits to any AV scanning?
YES
Does your system have the required distributables?
YES
Is your video card DX11 compatible?
YES
If applicable, did you disable any FSX to P3D migration tools (like Estonia) before running the sim?
YES
Are you using an aircraft other than a Milviz one as your default aircraft?
YES
Have you installed in the root sim directory?
YES
Do you have the appropriate SimConnect libraries installed?
YES

This is a limitation of the Navstax product I believe.
Have you contacted them?

[N4GIX]

The KX165A is COM1/NAV1
The KX165 is COM2/NAV2

What does your panel.cfg use? Post it so we can diagnose what might be wrong.

Bill, my MV_Twinkie panel.cfg is as below. I couldn't see anything which allocates the Com1/Nav1 and Com2/Nav2 radios.

Osh, my Navstax stack works fine with the C310R and the Turbo Otter - its only the Twinkie that has this issue, so I don't believe its a Navstax problem (unless its to do with how it handles the MV_Twinkie parameter in Gauge05).

Cheers,
Mark

Solved!

The Navstax configurator was showing the correct c1/n1 and c2/n2 allocations so I discounted this as a factor, but saving the configurator settings anyway seems to have set things right. (Have never had to set configurator values on a "built-in" Navstax before.)

Sorry for the hassle!

[N4GIX]

I am delighted to learn you found and fixed the problem. I had completely forgotten about the "Navstax Configurator" tool since it has been several years since I last worked with NavStax.
