Operation NAV1 - NAV2 [Resolved]

PC6 to P3DV5.3, PC6 installer MV_PC6_v1.3.3_210728
When setting up a frequent VOR/DME on GNS, GNS detects it, shows the distance to the beacon. However, when NAV1 or NAV2 is selected on the navigation device, the pointer position will not change. I tried to use the NavStax radio panel, the position of the arrows does not change when NAV1 or NAV2 is selected. At the same time, when setting the ADF to the NDB beacon and when the selector on the navigation device is moved to the ADF position, the arrow changes its position and shows the direction to the NDB.
Please tell me what I'm doing wrong so that when setting up NAV, the arrow on the navigation device shows the direction to the VOR / DME beacon.
Thank you!

A screenshot here of how you have things set up may help here. Save as a .jpg and place it in your post.

Thanks for the answer.

I find LKTB at the Brno airport.
LOC 111.500 (DME111.500), VOR/DME 114.45, NDB 429

In the first screenshot, I have set the Garmin to LOC and VOR frequencies.
In the second screenshot, you can see that the arrows on the navigation device do not show the direction to the VOR.
When the selector on the navigation device is moved to the ADF position, the arrow shows the direction to the NDB.
Direction to VOR arrows on my navigation device do not show not only in Brno, they do not show direction at any airport or in flight when I tune in to VOR

At the same time, the lower navigation device works

Thank you! The question is removed, I apparently used the devices incorrectly. Now everything is fine. I took off from Brno airport and flew on VOR JAN 110.80 (near Bratislava). Everything is working correctly!

In flight, due to my inattention, the engine failed, so do not pay attention to the feathered propeller blades :)
