PSX.NET.EFB - Electronic Flight Bag For PSX

[samer747]

Hello and thank you Gary for soundsV2 update.

I just want to ask about the "interface calls" section in the EFB, do I need to do specific setup inorder to hear the cabin calls and announcements? I can only hear the chime when I push "flt int call"

The doors option in services do not work, but the other services works fine.

If any additional setups to need to be done please advice me, from any members figured something out with the setup.

Regards,

[macroflight]

After some digging... this is how I finally got the EFB to manage my doors:

1: Use version 1.2.1 of the PSX.NET Doors module. This is harder than it sounds, I could not find it anywhere except in an old ZIP file I got from Gary at some point (download link below)
2: Configure the Doors module! You need to tell it which doors to open when you click "Early Turnaround", "Boarding", "Just Prior Push" ("Push/Approach Stand" will always close all doors). And you need to do this for all aircraft types (passenger, passenger ER, Combi, etc.) that you use.

If the buttons "Early Turnaround", "Boarding", "Just Prior Push" and "Push/Approach Stand" works for you in the PSX.NET window AND you have version 1.2.1 of the Doors module, door control from the EFB should also work.

I put version 1.2.1 of the Doors module up for download here. If there's an official version around somewhere, let me know and I'll remove my copy. Version 1.2.0 (which is in the PSX.NET download link that the EFB manual links to) does not work.

If this port makes the EFB door controls work for you too, we can perhaps ask Gary to update the PSX.NET download link in the EFB manual and add some notes about how you need to configure the Doors module.

If you want pushback to work from the EFB, it seems you need version 1.1.1 of the PSX.NET GroundServices module. Since that version also seems unavailable for download, I have made a copy available here.

pls delete - error posting

Hey Macro - thanks yes pushback now works with the updated groundmodule - but be aware that the 1.1.1 removes the Groundservice prompt/menu on the center CDU which I use to connect and disconnect conditioned air (which you can't do in the EFB - only ext air is available)

For that reason I have reverted to the 1.1.0 version of groundservices module and instead handle pushback from center cdu.

Cheers

[Gary Oliver]

Ah yes - I removed the CDU prompts in the later versions - I'll add conditioned air to the EFB (its been annoying me too that its been missing, I always have to do it from my streamdeck)

[Gary Oliver]

Overwrite these files in the main EFB

[PSX747atlas]

Downloaded, overwrite and unblocked the .dll and now efb wont load, any advice?

[Gary Oliver]

Sorry there was a missing file - download it again, you need the GMAP.NET.WindowsPresentation.dll file too.

Where I get that missing .dll redownloaded from dropbox link only 3 files in it.

[Gary Oliver]

haha would help if I was running dropbox when I made the change so it synced - Is it there now?

[PSX747atlas]

got it thanks Gary.

Hi Gary,

Unfortunatley unable to open EFB with thos files, if I delete the 2 dlls and replace the original windows.dll I can open EFB, any ideas?

Thanks

ps Tried on my main PC and it blocks the download as virus found, so unable to go further, however my laptop where EFB is doesnt detect any virus and file is present in main folder and unblocked.

Alas not as successful as I hoped - Should have passed Macroflights testing service first - link removed will revisit tomorrow

[PSX747atlas]

Thanks Gary appreciate everything you do for us PSX users.

haha thanks Gary - no stress

Fixed it - https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/fq0udnml4nc5xzbmieuut/PSX.NET.EFB_V2.0.0.1.zip?rlkey=0jrjesvec6k4see5552a5vu3x&dl=1

Note the pushback page has now moved to a different menu item - tip: if you get the red cross on the taxiline then press left or right it will line up perfectly on the taxiway at default turn radius.

Cheers
