Differences MCP & CDU
MCP The MCP program has its own interface with options selectable by pressing the ESC key. Here you
can also select the specific type of aircraft you will use. This should also match to the type you select in the
CDU types IDENT page (see CDU section).
CDU The CDU main user interface is entered by pressing the MENU key twice on the CDU software
graphic or your CDU hardware. For the display setting these can be entered here or by editing the ini file.

Press the MENU key twice, now various options are available. If, for example you want the display settings,
select the LSK (Line Select Key) by that option. Now a new screen will present the various display modes.
By selecting full screen mode, the CDU bitmap will disappear and just the CDU display will be shown. This
is usually the option when using hardware. The display can then be resized via your hardware LSK keys as
shown or via your keyboard using the sizing / positioning keys.

About INI Files
Each Project Magenta program has an ini file. This file resides in the main program directory (for example
mcp.ini or GAIFR.ini). The ini file has many of the same options that the ESC menu function offers, but it
also has additional ones that are being updated on a more regular basis for different customer
requirements.
The ini files can be edited via the normal windows Notepad text editor. The files are self documenting. The
function is listed on the left, and a description of the action on the right. You only need to start editing ini
files for specific types of application; generally most options are available in the ESC menu.
A common example of ini file editing requirements is when connecting hardware via a serial interface. In
the ini file you will see an entry for that specific hardware (if we have supported it) and you may have to
enter the specific comm. Port number that your hardware is connected to. In the example below, MCP
hardware is connected to the Comm. port number one on the computer.
For further information on specific ini file settings please contact support@projectmagenta.com

Boeing-Type Glass Cockpit
The Glass Cockpit setup with regard to positioning and sizing has already been discussed in the GENERAL
section of this document. Here, we will discuss a little bit about how the Glass Cockpit functions and what
further options are selectable by you and what you must set in order for the Glass Cockpit to function
properly.
Step 1 Aircraft Type
The Glass Cockpit will detect from MSFS the number of engines your specific flight Model has. This will
automatically change the engine display on the EICAS to the number of engines the flight model has. But
the Glass Cockpit still needs more information from you which will be discussed shortly.
If you selected a three engine aircraft (such as the 727) it will also display the appropriate number of
engines. This is an automatic function of the Glass Cockpit Software.
Please note that primary development of the Boeing Glass Cockpit is aimed at the 737. Secondary
development covers to a slightly lesser degree the 767, 777 and 747 types. This is because due to the
generic nature of the Glass Cockpit we can extend features to cover these other aircraft. We also cover the
EFIS modes of the 737 and usually this is an airline specific option (examples shown later). These various
options are selected by the ESC menu.
Apart from detecting the number of Engines your aircraft has the Glass Cockpit also needs to know a great
deal of other parameters. These are generated through text files. These files are associated by aircraft
type. Because sometimes the Glass Cockpit is run alone without the CDU software, there are two ways of
setting the specific aircraft type so that the Glass Cockpit knows the various performance characteristics
