Project Magenta Instructor Station
The Instructor Station software is based on our experience with several of our other products and particular
requirements we would have to such an application.
The system requirements are identical to our Glass Cockpit software and the software can be used on a
single or dual monitor configuration, as well as networked on several computers. The network interfacing is
provided via WideFS/FSUIPC, a free license is included as part of the package. The Project Magenta
instructor station is compatible to FS2004, some features may not work with previous versions of flight
simulator.
We do rely on feedback from our customers regarding this and other products, please do not hesitate to
contact us with your questions or requirements. support@projectmagenta.com
There are two core modes of operation, full screen (with a map menu) or in map mode with the instructor
interface as an inset. To allow the map to be discernable, the interface is made transparent.
Instructor Station Full Screen Mode
Map Screen Mode is accessed via the command on the Main Instructor Menu page. The operation of the
Instructor Interface is identical in both modes, although some options might not be available in one or the
other mode.

Instructor Station Connectivity
The instructor station talks to the flight simulator via WideFS/FSUIPC. Once the connection is made, it can
be verified with the pmFileCheck Program in the root folder of the Instructor Station (pmInst).
Some conventions which are also applicable to our other software are shared folders which allow the
communication to the other software.
NetDir – Communication with the Project Magenta FMC
FSPLANS – Main FS Flight Plan Folder (if no FMC is used)
Please use pmFileCheck to verify the connection is as expected, make sure FS as well as any other
programs (FMC, Autopilot) are running when you make this test. The program will report and suggest
changes, if necessary.
Instructor Station Conventions
Both the Options Menu screen [Esc]-key and the INI file (pmInst.ini) are subject to change and will most
probably be expanded. The INI-File is self documenting, thus you should find a description of each setting
next to the particular entry. If something is unclear, please let us know and it will be changed accordingly.
The Options menu is accessible at all times, it allows you to control both map and instructor station options
as well as the appearance of the software.
