The CDU / MCDU and MCP type software are discussed at the end of this section
By its nature, the software is designed to be as versatile as possible. We cater for many different types of
application. For this reason, it is necessary to spend time familiarizing yourself with the basic concepts of
configuration. This section deals with the first level, getting started. From there on, much of the
customisazion techniques and options that are available to you will become self evident by
experimentation. To avoid confusion later, it is important to understand these basics first.
Whether you are running the demo software or the actual software for the first time this still applies. A
note about the demo software, it is the same as the actual software only that it is time limited. It can be
connected to MSFS but requires the same set-up and configuration as discussed previously.
Generally the software will go into a “demo” mode when it is not connected to anything (whether it is the
demo software or full version). It won’t revert to a demo mode if it is connected to MSFS. In demo mode,
the software will create an artificial situation, the instruments will appear as though they are flying, and
screen my change to show all the different modes. This is designed to give an overall impression for pure
demo purposes. But for set-up and configuration it is best to turn it off in the following way. Through this
you will also get an insight into the software main user interface.
Basics
When the software is up and running, by pressing the ESC key on your keyboard, a
default menu will appear superimposed on the screen. This is the main first level
user selectable options interface. The second level is the program ini files that
reside in the main program folders. A text editor can be used to change these, the
ini files are self documented by each option, but generally the options there are for
a more advanced stage of use. The Program Options Menu has further pages that
you can navigate to by clicking on the various options. Some
will simply turn things on or off, whilst other options will
take you to another page. To revert back to the software
itself, just press the ESC key again.
As an example, switch off the demo mode function of the
software. Click
with the mouse
on OTHER
SETTINGS. A
new page will
appear with a
number of other software options.
Uncheck the DEMO FLIGHT MODE. Now the software will
never revert into Demo mode. If you want demo mode back
again simply reselect it. When positioning instruments and

sizing them to fit your displays you may find that having the demo mode off will help you in that the
software will no longer switch between display modes allowing you time to configure and set it up. This is
true both of the free “demo” software and also the actual full software because the full software will also
switch into demo mode *if* not connected to MSFS or this option is not deselected.
The technique of software configuration applies to many different things that have varying degrees of
importance. Try selecting various options and see the results.
Positioning
The software does not know what screen ratio, screen size or resolution you have. We do not limit to any
one size. Therefore to avoid us putting in limitations of this nature, you have to set and position the
instruments. Once this is done, the software will remember the positioning. If you change monitor, reinstall,
or alter the resolution then you will have to perform this process again.
First, please navigate through all the various instrument display modes available. This mainly refers to the
Glass Cockpit type software. With other software like Quickmap, pmSystems and the GAIFR there are no
multiple screens to deal with, but much of the sizing and positioning is common across software platforms.
By pressing the Function keys F1 through to F10 you can cycle through each display mode on the Glass
Cockpits. Whilst on the selected page, you can position and size the instruments.
Cycling through the pages will give you different instrument views.
The surrounding Bitmap Frames can be turned on / off via the ESC
menu options.
As an example, here is the F4 page, most commonly used for the
Captains PFD and ND display run on a single TFT display. At
present the sizing is not correct. Both the PFD and ND have to be re-positioned and re-sized.
Positioning can be achieved either via the keyboard or the mouse. By placing the mouse over any
instrument, you can move the combination around. To move individual instruments, you can use a
combination of the CTRL, SHIFT, ALT and arrow keys. Please try this. It is first best to get a rough sizing,
