And - it just works flawlessly - finally the Epson prints as it should 🙏🙏 thanks Alex.

Would be great if there was an auto connect option - any chances for that?

Thanks 🙏

Ohh this is just what I need - I have an EPSON TM20iii that I for weeks have been trying to get to print correctly via AdaptPSX and WidePSX. No matter what I do in the printer and paper settings it does not print correctly and I get exactly the issues described in other threads with truncated lines and huge margins.

I really hope this will solve it.

Will report back later :D

Hangar 7 / Keyboard shortcut for lights?
Last post by Aleks - Mon, 18 Mar 2024 08:16
Are there keyboard shortcuts to handle lights (taxi, strobe, landing, etc.)?

If not, is it possible to get these in the next update? :)

Thanks.

Quote from: boeing747430 on Sat, 16 Mar 2024 14:19Quite often the GPS receivers will not recover and start working again properly after a flight through a jamming or spoofing area. Don't know why, it's just the way it is. Only a full reset by pulling circuit breakers will help - but only if procedures allow.

On 747s, it could screw up the whole  multi mode receiver and even leave you without an ILS-receiver on that particular MMR.

Maybe some kind of memory compare function, that fails when the current GPS position differs too much from the most recent position (GPS going from south-Yemen to Angola within 3 sec). Maybe if such a function (should it exist) fails, parts of other systems are deemed unreliable and thus fail too.

Just taking a guess...

good morning I have a problem with mcp2 the v/s vanopola when I try it has the adjustment it seems crazy, it goes as soon as I touch it for example if I try to program it shows -800 it immediately goes to -3000 maybe I want to mark -200 it immediately goes to -4000.

Hangar 7 / GPS spoofing

Quote"GPS spoofing can continue to have consequences for the systems on board even though you have long since flown out of the disturbed area. As a result, pilots cannot fully rely on the data provided by their systems during the entire flight," says VNV vice-chairman George. "There are stories that after GPS spoofing in the Middle East, pilots received incorrect messages from their systems when landing in Tokyo."

Apparently GPS spoofing still has effect on the systems even after leaving the "spoofing-area". I can't see how, as soon as the area is left and a legitimate gps signal is picked up the systems wlll only follow the most recent signal right?

Systems I can think of right now that may be affected by spoofing:
-EGPWS
-FMS
-ACARS?
