Aircraft Configuration Files
Basics
The Aircraft Configuration Files are used by the CDU/FMS and the Glass Cockpit. They have the extension
.TXT for your convenience, and they can be edited with any text editor.
Glass Cockpit Only
If you do not have the CDU/FMS software, the Aircraft Configuration file is referenced within PFD.INI. I.e.
you would have an entry Type=B737400.TXT to reference the file for the B737-400. This file is loaded only
once, when the Glass Cockpit is started.
Glass Cockpit with CDU/FMS
If you use the CDU/FMS software, things are different.
First of all, edit PFD.INI and enter Type=CDU, instead of Type=B737400.TXT. This will load the aircraft
type file that is provided by the CDU. The file will be retreived from the NetDir Folder. For more information
about that, please check the Glass Cockpit instructions.
The Aircraft Configuration Files go into a Folder ("Types") within the main CDU folder, you should find
several .TXT files there. If you want to create your own TXT file, just copy one of the existing ones and use
it as a template.
The Aircraft Type used by the CDU (and subsequently by the Glass Cockpit) can be selected on startup,
pressing LSK 1L, or later on by going to the INIT/REF, IDENT page.
Every time you select a new aircraft type, the data is re-loaded, put into the NetDir folder and the Glass
Cockpit is instructed to load it as well. The name of the selected aircraft should show up in the Engine
Page.

Aircraft Configuration File
Each aircraft type has its own set of data which can be currently set via entries in a file which is referenced
in the PFD.INI (see above) entry Type=FILENAME.EXT (e.g. Type=B737400.TXT). In the default
Setup of the Glass Cockpit software you will find B737400.TXT and B747400.TX
In this particular example are some annotations for the B737400.TXT file if you want to change the
settings, but you will surely soon find more aircraft types made by us or others online.
These files will be transferred from the CDU/FMS to all other client PCs at a later stage, allowing you to
change the type you are using "on the fly". To use the aircraft type selected in the CDU, edit your PFD.INI
and set Type=CDU.
General Data
AircraftType=737-700
Project Magenta Revision: 12 March-08
105
This is simply the name of the aircraft. This value can be empty if you don't want it to appear on the
Engine page.
TOGAPitch=15
The TOGAPitch entry defines the fixed pitch the Flight Director goes to when the throttles are in TOGA
mode (either via the MCP/Autopilot or the defualt FS98 TOGA mode)
N1ref = 93
When you are not using the CDU and the MCP/Autopilot, the reference N1 value is fixed and is more of an
optical thing than a real feature. The N1 limit can be set via the CDU and is then sent to the MCP/Autopilot
program limiting the trhottles according to the particular phase of flight as wet in the CDU or in the
MCP.INI file.
Flare = 20
AGL in feet where you want the flare to be initiated for this particular aircraft
RadioAlt = 18
When you have a non-zero indication for the radio altimeter in the PFD and enter this value for the radio
altimeter on the ground, it will display 00.
EFIS=On
Will switch to EFIS mode if a 737 / 757 or 767 is in theAircraftType= entry, but not for the 767-400 as it
has a PFD/ND layout
EADI=On
With the 75/767 it will switch to the more modern horizon with the speed tape instead of the fast slow
indication
RAGauge=On
With the 75/767 it will display the radio altimeter gauge to the right of the horizon and move the altimeter
further to the right if EFIS=On
HideN2=On
With the 747-400 inhibits the display of N2 on the upper EICAS
RunwayLength=6000
Will force the Glass Cockpit (ND) and FMC (Alternates) to load only airports with runways longer than that
value.
EGT = On
Indicates whether you want EGT to be displayed in the Eingine page of this aircraft (vertical instruments
only)
NetWeight=88000
Project Magenta Revision: 12 March-08
106
Payload = 20000
Fuelmax = 40000
These weights are in pounds, where the payload is a fixed value which should be taken into account within
the AIR file of the type flown (please check the flight model's documentation) as well as the weight. The
setting Fuelmax is only used when FS is not connected.
Engines=CFM56-7B20
The name of the engine type used, this is for display in the IDENT page.
EnginesRate=20K
