Look for alternative
Implement in xpopengc

• ZIBO changed datarefs
• Implement solution with commands generalized for xplane

Stab Trim Cutout swiches are now supported in ZIBO. Implement in xpusb.

Right now all xpcockpit clients have a manual configuration of the X-Plane IP and also listen to the xpconnect server plugin to be running in order to exchange data with X-Plane. X-Plane operates a UDP beacon transmitting its IP address and we will know when X-Plane is running and what version it has:
https://github.com/ale-novo/xplane/blob/master/xplane.py
nasa/XPlaneConnect#147

It would be cool to implement that feature in xpcockpit clients. Try out with xpclient and implement it to other clients as well. Still leave the option to manually configure the IP though.

Seems to receive data but does not display anything

Hi, the ./configure script is not in the git repository, can you please check it in.

With STD QNH the pre-selected QNH appears in white on PFD below STD sign.

Implement IAS Disagree in speed tape

laminar/B738/autopilot/ias_disagree

• check for error codes in rasperry update scripts
• exit scripts when error is encountered and report the error to the user

C/O Button on MCP should allow to switch between IAS and MACH Number above a certain altitude. Does not seem to work right now.

During Takeoff thrust levers need to be able to be manually adjusted when THR HOLD mode is reached.

Flap indicator is not linear with flap positions 0,1,2,5,10,15,25,30,40
Use linear interpolation as in compass xppi code.

• check initialization of UDP transfer with X-plane

UDP read loop is not captured on ctrl-c if:

• neither x-plane
  NOR
• sismo card can be reached (e.g. with wrong host IP address)

The WXR data message format has changed.

The XP11 one:

the four chars RADR and a NULL.
float lon longitude of the radar point
float lat latitude of course
float storm_level_0_100 precip level, 0 to 100
float storm_height_meters the storm tops in meters MSL

The XP12 one:

the four chars RADR, and a fifth byte that is internal-use.
float lon longitude of the scan pointa
float lat latitude of the scan point
float bases_meters the cloud basees in meters MSL
float tops_meters the cloud tops in meters MSL
float clouds_ratio cloud ratio this lat and lon ratio
float precip_ratio precip ratio at this lat and lon

This will require some changes in libxpcockpit/src/wxrdata.c

Ideally we can adapt it in the way so that both XP11 and XP12 can be
satisfied without hardcoding the new format and deleting the old one.

EFIS Capt/FO Baro Setting or/and STD button seem to be changing the QNH / STD on both sides.
Todo : unlink

• during connect() of the tcp/ip client the server is still starting and will block the client
• implement connect with timeout in all clients. Duplicate solution of xpsismo with xpusb etc.

Diagnose timing of disconnect command in xpsismo mcp implementation
Trigger solenoid correctly

On PFD of FO the QNH is displayed as the captain's QNH independently of the FO QNH position. Altitude is correctly set to FO QNH.

The green PFD speed bug should move according to the MCP SPD display. It does not.

Turning up means going down.

Make CMD ONCE transfer to xpserver faster, so each cycle a CMD ONCE can be issued.

When a FMC key is pressed, it should start to auto-repeat the letter/number.
Implement key hold in xppi fmc code.

currently displays show when x-plane is connected (green square) but they never turn back red when disconnected

During AT operation, throttle levers sometimes do not both move. AT disconnects.
Check THR HOLD Mode operation

Last axis in xpusb's support for BU0836 seems to be reversed.
Problem for YokeRudder, since right brake of FO (axis 6) seems to be Tiller (axis 7)

Remove from code. Was for testing positioning only

Dataref laminar/B738/ap/ils_active does not exist any more in ZIBO Mod as of XP12.
Was used to show ILS Text on PFD when on ILS approach.
Replace ...

Beside each TCAS Blob there should be an arrow showing if the acf is climbing or descending relative to our own ACF

Sometimes raspi / xpopengc only links first few datarefs but then stops. Clearly shown in /var/log/syslog.
Why does it not continue?

• Should be dashed
• Possibly goes away when in LNAV mode (check Manual)

TCAS is only shown in certain alt and dist range.

... not implemented.

When MCP SPD display switches from kts to mach, the COURSE and SPD 7 segment displays become dim.
This is likely a buffer overflow in the SISMO 7 segment bit packing algorithm in libsismo.c

no comment.

Hello,

I simply downloaded, compiled and make install xpserver and copied the plugin as per de instructions. Now X-plane crashes.

X-Plane: 10.51 64 bit (also tried 32bit and same result).

Here's the log.txt

Cheers and thank you for your time

The NAV display shows the hold pattern in a dynamic mode when in the hold (depends on airspeed and wind etc.). Make use of respective datarefs and display changing hold pattern in real time.

PFD display should show alt / vs / ap alt in metres as well if MTRS button on EFIS is pressed

The magenta route line should start from the aircraft position to the next waypoint if a direct waypoint command is entered into the FMC. The last waypoint has no more meaning in this mode. Currently there is still a line between the last and the current waypoint even after a DCT is entered.

Implement OpenGL message handling for debugging OpenGL code.

// Enable OpenGL Debugging (or not)
glEnable ( GL_DEBUG_OUTPUT );
glDebugMessageCallback( MessageCallback, 0 );
--> latter is not defined despite of using glext.h
Why?

See piki-s comment. When can I manually override the AT?
