It's intended to be used with Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 (MSFS) and should stay a game level instrument. Don't use it for real navigation purpose or training. This GTN750 is not an integration of the Garmin trainer. It has been built from scratch using the Asobo and Working Title development tools for full integration in the simulator. Don't expect an exact replication of the real instrument even if it provides most of its functionality. Since we master the code we can provide extra features not available in the Garmin trainer or in competitor products. The GTN750 is available as a lite package (free if loaded from our website) that provides all the necessary functionality for flying your flight plan and an optional premium activation key that provides extended features. The GTN750 can be used by aircraft providers to be fully integrated in their cockpit in a 3D bezel. There is an integrator's guide for this purpose. Installation Install from the PMS50 website The product is delivered as a free MSFS package to be installed in the MSFS Community folder. Get the GTN750 package from the PMS50 site . In the home page, click on the "Download" button. If you have a windows message "path too long" while installing the packages, please read this. Or use the 7-zip program Or unzip the package first in your disk root (ex C:/) and then copy (drag) the unzipped directory to the community folder. Or try to use the free MSFS Addons Linker program. If you have any issue with the installation in your environment do the following: Empty the community folder. Install the last version of the GTN750 package. Test with the GTN750 toolbar panel (see Toolbar chapter). Put back one by one the other Mods into the community folder to see if there is a conflict with one of them. WARNING: The official package is currently available only from our PMS50 site (https://pms50.com). If you download the software from any other site, you participate to a copyright violation and you risk legal actions. You may also have a non functional software and damage to your computer. If you have already installed the package from an alternative site, please replace it with the official package. Any modification, reverse engineering or debugging of our Javascript obfuscated code is prohibited. Install GTN750 package The package name is "pms50-instrument-gtn750". Unzip the package into the Community folder Start MSFS If you don't know the path of your community folder or if you can't see the package in the content manager after install or if it says "Not installed", do the following while running the sim: Go to Options / General Click on "Developers" which you will find at the bottom of the list on the left Switch Developers Mode on On the Dev Menu select Tools / Virtual File System The community folder location can be found under "Packages Folders": Click on "Open Community Folder".

The GTN750 package requires to use a third party aircraft with the GTN750 integrated. Check the aircraft documentation for the way to activate the GTN750. You can also use the panel version that is available in any aircraft. Verifying the installation To verify the correct installation, go the sim content manager and search for "pms50". You should then see the main GTN 750 packages and the optional specific aircraft packages (if you installed some): For MSFS 2024, go to Marketplace / My library and search for "PMS50": Install from the marketplace The GTN750 package is available from the marketplace. Note: The marketplace package has a small cost due to Microsoft’s system. This package is the GTN750 lite version. If you want the premium version, you should buy the license separately from the PMS50 website and install it as described below (chapter Premium extension activation). On the MSFS marketplace page, search for "PMS50" and choose the "GTN750 Avionics" package. The GTN750 doesn't display / power on If you have installed the package in the community folder: First of all, verify the installation as described above. You must have the latest GTN750 version. Your aircraft must be at the latest release too. Run the GTN750 toolbar panel (see chapter "Toolbar panel") after starting your aircraft in Ready to Take Off mode. If it's not working, this is probably an installation issue or an old version of the software running. Remove the GTN750 package from the community folder and install it again. If the toolbar panel is still not working, go to the GTN750 package folder in the community folder and run "verify.bat". This should create a local file named "report_pms50-instrument- gtn750.txt". This file should show somewhere "NO ERRORS". If you have some errors please contact the support and post this file. If the toolbar panel works, go to its System / System Status page and verify the version and the WTT mode. If you contact the support, please post a screenshot of this page. Some aircraft require the GTN750 selection from a tablet or a cockpit switch (ex Carenado tablet). Verify if it's selected. The GTN750 bezel should be displayed when selected even if it's black or white. Test by removing any other Mod from your community folder (move them to a temporary folder). Keep only the aircraft and the GTN750 package. Also verify that no external program involved with MSFS runs (ex FSUIPC, TDS, etc...). Restart the sim. If the GTN750 works in these conditions, you probably have a mod conflict. Try to re-add your mods one by one to identify the culprit. Don't forget to restart the sim after changing something in your community folder. This step is important because most of the issues come from a Mod conflict (ex livery or other GPS). Any mod that modifies the aircraft's panel.cfg file may prevent the GTN750 from running or displaying. If your aircraft has a hot GPS swapping feature including the GNS 530, test by cycle GNS/GTN selection. If your aircraft has a WTT additional package available, install it. See the "Working Title Technology" chapter above. Try with another aircraft if you have one available with the GTN750 in the cockpit. This could help to identify an aircraft-specific issue. Unplug your hardware. Some specific hardware (ex Honeycomb) may have a switch that could disable the avionics. Contact the support if you still have an issue after all these checks. Please provide the screenshot of the System / System Status page. Give us detailed information. Read the section "Before reporting a bug" on our support page. Premium extension activation The premium extension requires a paid license. Get it on the PMS50 site . You need to be connected to the internet at least when you start your flight but more generally to take advantage of all the features of the premium extension. If you have trouble to register on the pms50 site or to get your purchase receipt, please contact us. Some emails may be in your spam directory or rejected by your email provider. Currently all ATT and Bellsouth domains reject our transactional emails so don't use these emails to register on our site. Once you have your license, do the following to activate it: Start the sim, choose your airplane, start it and go to the GTN750 System/Setup/License page. Enter your license key and activate it. This operation will occur only one time. IMPORTANT Restart MSFS after license activation. Exit MSFS via the Welcome screen "quit to desktop" (PC only). If you kill it hardly or by the windows top right cross or by alt f4, you may have to enter your license again or the license may be blocked with a message "site_inactive" the next time you run the sim. If this occurs, please see the chapter "License deactivation / reactivation" below to recover. You need to be connected to the internet to activate your license. The License is a long string and it's easy to have a typo error. The license contains only characters "0 to 9" and "a to f". If you have an error "license invalid" this is a typo error on your side. The most common error is to type a letter "O" instead of the digit "0". Another common error is to type the Paypal or Stripe purchase key instead of the license activation key. If you have an error "site invalid" please recover as described in the chapter "License deactivation/reactivation below. If you ordered via Paypal/Stripe, be sure to not confuse the license key with the Paypal/Stripe purchase key that appears in your invoice. You got the license key in the email purchase receipt. You can also view it from your PMS50 account on the "My Account" page. The license is for one MSFS installation only. You just have to install it once and it will work for all your compatible aircraft. Updates To update the GNT750 package, stop the sim, re-download the new package from PMS50 site , remove the old one and unzip the new package in the community folder. Restart the sim. Be careful to save the content of the flight plan import folder if you have one before removing the package. The same for import waypoint, and checklist folders. It is not necessary to re-enter your license after an update. When there is an important update available, you will receive a message directly in the GTN750 instrument. If you got the GTN750 from the marketplace, just update it with the MSFS tools. License deactivation / reactivation If you change your computer or if you have any trouble, you may need to deactivate and reactivate your license. In such a situation you could get a message "site_inactive" in the GTN750 screen. That means that your license is not linked anymore to your installation (site). Don't panic and follow the procedure described below under "From your account" to deactivate the license. You will then able to reactivate it from the GTN750. If you want to transfer your license to another MSFS installation, first deactivate it from the old installation and then reactivate it on the new one. If you forgot to restart the simulator after entering the license and had to leave hardly the simulator (ex CTD), your license may not be recorded locally. The message "Your license cannot be checked. Reason: site_inactive" is then displayed in the GTN750. Follow the procedure described below under "From your account" to deactivate the license. You will then be able to reactivate it from the GTN750. From your aircraft You can deactivate your license directly in your aircraft in the System/Setup/License page of the GTN750. From your account You can also deactivate your license from your account settings on the PMS50 site . Login to your account Go to MyAccount Click on the link "View Licenses" of your order ID. Click on Manage Sites Click on Deactivate Site Now you can reactivate your license from your aircraft in the System/Setup/License page of the GTN750. By contacting us If you can't deactivate your license or if you have any trouble, please contact support. License renewal If your license is expired you can renew it by doing the following: Login to your PMS50 account Go to My Account menu In the purchase section, click on "View Licenses" Click on "Extend license" Proceed to checkout You can renew your license before its expiration date. It will then be renewed for one year at its anniversary date. For example if the first purchase date is Nov 12 2020, if you renew the license on Sept 20 2021 it be valid until Nov 11 2022. License upgrade to lifetime If you currently own a per year license, you can upgrade it to a lifetime license by doing the following: Login to your PMS50 account Go to My Account menu In the purchase section, click on "View Licenses" Click on "View upgrades" Click on "Upgrade license" Proceed to checkout Important: your license must be valid so don’t wait the expiration date for upgrading. Anyway, if your license has expired and you want to upgrade it to lifetime, please contact us. License removing If you have decided to not renew your license, you should remove the local licensing data to avoid a license inactive message when starting the instrument. This can be done by pressing the "Clear License" button in the Setup License page. If you pressed this button by error, you will have to re-enter your license. Get version You can get the product version at different places: From the Content manager: search for "pms50". From the splash screen when you start the instrument "cold and start" or when switching off/on avionics. From the GTN750 System / System Status page. Working Title Technology (WTT) Some aircraft have an in-cockpit bezel that works with the WTT technology. This may require an extra package. It is recommended to install the additional WTT package in the community folder when there is one available to your aircraft. The WTT is a framework developed by the Working Title company that completely overrides the stock flight plan and autopilot management. It brings more features than the stock framework (better flight planner, holds, visual approaches, missed approaches, vectors to final, etc...). The WT engine can be internal or external. The internal WT engine requires an additional package for compatible aircraft (see here, second section, to get the additional package for your aircraft). The external WT engine is part of another WT GPS currently in the cockpit and running. Then the GTN750 is able to detect it and to use it. You can see that in action by using the GTN750 as a toolbar panel with the WT G1000Nxi or the WT GNS530. In this situation, the GTN750 brings some extra features to the WT GPSs: user waypoints, flight plan import, etc... Check the GTN750 System / System Status page to see the current detected WTT mode (internal, external or none). The aircraft behavior may be different when using the WTT mode. In the rest of this document you should find some remarks about differences between Stock mode and WTT mode. Stock mode stands for the sim behavior with a plane not using the Working Title Technology. WT G3X compatibility The GTN750 is compatible (as an external navigator) with the Working Title G3X instrument. This requires some specific configuration from the aircraft provider. The GTN750 will then work with its full functionality. However, when flying an ILS, be sure to arm the LOC mode (autopilot approach mode) before flying the FAF leg otherwise, the VLOC auto switch will turn the AP to ROLL mode when starting the FAF leg. If the GTN750 is not defined as an external navigator it will not sync with the G3X unless you set the flight planner ID to "g3x" in the GTN750 system/setup/options page (button "Flight Planner ID"). In this case, the GTN750 synchronizes to the internal G3X flight plan. When the G3X is not driven by an external navigator, it only flies under VFR so certain features of the GTN750 are disabled (e.g. no procedures). MSFS2024 compatibility Our GTN750 product is compatible with MSFS 2020 and MSFSF 2024. The same package can be installed on both platforms. The GTN750 automatically detects the MSFS version and loads the correct Working Title SDK according to it. However, you can get a compatibility issue with some aircraft made for MSFS 2020 and running on MSFS 2024. This is especially true for the ones using the Working Title G3X. With the G3X, we are checking the SDK compatibility and warn you if it's not compatible: To fix that, you can force the SDK version from the GTN750 options page. After that, you must restart the aircraft. The SDK version to be used is saved as a persistent variable at the aircraft level. Product use The use of the GTN750 is intuitive. This chapter describes only specific items. You can refer to the official GARMIN GTN750 for further information. However, this is not the real product here. Don't expect all the real instrument functionalities. You may also have some differences because a game simulation cannot reproduce exactly all the real things. The official documentation will just help you to understand how it works. Flight plan The flight plan page displays your flight plan and procedures in the following order: Origin Departure procedure Enroute waypoints Arrival procedure Destination Approach The destination will always appear as the last waypoint before the approach. in WTT mode, you have to manually activate the approach when ready to fly it. If you remove the destination, the simulator will remove the approach and the arrival if there are some. Flight plan cleaning A startup, the GTN750 cleans the sim flight plan created from the world map if not already done. The purpose of flight plan cleaning is to remove some hidden unrealistic waypoints added by the sim (ex TIMECLI and TIMEAPP) because these waypoints are confusing and create issues in the flight plan management. To do that, the GTN750 creates a copy of the flight plan, deletes the current flight plan and recreates it from the copy. Flight plan catalog This is a premium feature. The premium extension manages a flight plan catalog. It is available from the flight plan page menu. It can store up to 30 flight plans per aircraft. Flight plans are saved internally (not in a file) at aircraft level. Aircraft catalogs are independent each other (A flight plan saved in an aircraft will not be visible from another aircraft). In order to save your current flight plan in the catalog, press the store button from the flight plan page menu. Importing a flight plan This is a premium feature. The premium extension allows importing a flight plan as your current flight plan. This is completely independent from the catalog feature but once imported you can save the flight plan to the catalog. There is no "export to file" function because this is not technically possible for now (javascript code cannot write a local file). Use the import button from the flight plan page menu to import a flight plan into the GTN750. This may give you a choice between several options depending if you are in WTT mode and if you own a premium license. Import from a file Only the PLN format is accepted. This feature is not available to XBOX users. To import a flight plan, set its name to "fpl.pln" and drop the file into the "fpl/gtn750" subdirectory of the GTN750 package inside the community folder. Only the file named fpl.pln is checked by the GTN750 import function. Any other files in the fpl/gtn750 subdirectory will be ignored so you can put here some of your pln files and rename (or copy) the one you want to import to "fpl.pln". Just think to save the content of this folder, if necessary, when updating the GTN750 package to a new version. Some external applications may not deliver a correct information in the pln files especially for waypoints associated to airports. Because of a bug inside the sim's kernel, this may result to a CTD. Little Navmap delivers well-formatted pln files. If you have a pln file coming from another external software, it is advised to first import it to Little Navmap and then re-export it for the GTN750. Import from SimBrief Before being able to import a flight plan from SimBrief you must have at least one flight plan generated in SimBrief and you must have entered your SimBrief pilot ID in the GTN750 System/Setup/SimBrief page. This is a one shot operation for all your aircraft. The SimBrief Pilot ID is a number that you can get from your SimBrief account settings. The GTN750 imports the latest SimBrief generated flight plan for your account ID. Note: if you want to share a flight plan with another user, you can ask him to enter your pilot ID into the GTN750 so he will be able to load your SimBrief flight flan, even if doesn't have himself a SimBrief account. Import from ATC You can also import the current ATC flight plan with the import button. This features works also for the lite version. You should import the ATC flight plan only in case of flight restart when you have lost your original world map flight plan. Importing from ATC works only if you are in WTT mode because the ATC flight plan may be different of the WT flight plan. Waypoint Altitude From the flight plan page, you can set the altitude constraint for each waypoint except for approach waypoints (sim limitation). The altitude constraint is limited to 20000 feet (sim limitation). For that, just click on the waypoint altitude field. You can also set the cruising altitude from the flight plan menu: Changing the cruising altitude will update the altitude of all the enroute waypoints. Any entered cruising altitude less than 1000ft will reset the cruising altitude. The cruising altitude is limited to 20000 feet (sim limitation). If you plan to cruise at higher level than FL200, don't use the cruising altitude. Cruising altitude is not a RW GTN750 feature. You can display the waypoint altitudes in the map by enabling constraints from the map menu. Metar This is a premium feature. Textual Metar data is available on the premium extension. It requires an API token (free) that you can get on the avwx rest API. Register on AVWX Choose the free version Get an API token Once you have your API token, you have to set it in the System/Setup/Setup Metar page of the GTN750: The Metar token is quite long and it's easy to have a typo error. If you have an underscore character in your API token, switch the keyboard to lowercase to set it. Pay attention to uppercase/lowercase and some characters difficult to distinguish from each other. We suggest that you first copy the metar key to the notepad. This should help you to distinguish some characters (ex lowercase "L" and uppercase "i"). The Metar token length is not fixed so don't take care of the number of possible characters in the keyboard edit line. Just enter it as it is and press the "Enter" key. The Metar token is to be entered just one time. Be patient, it will only take a few minutes of your life. The test metar button allows testing the Metar token (LFRK airport metar). If the response is "No Data" this is a typo error on your side when entering the key (or you are not connected to the internet). Metar is then available from the airport info page: IMPORTANT Exit MSFS via the Welcome screen "quit to desktop" after setting your metar token. If you don't do that, you may have to enter your token again. You must be connected to the internet for Metars to work. Metars are significant only while playing with live weather. Note: We are just displaying what AVWX reports including the decoding part. If you have any issue with the values you can check by yourself from your browser with this url: https://avwx.rest/api/metar/AIRPORT? token=MYTOKEN&options=translate&airport=true&reporting=true&format=json&onfail= cache Where AIRPORT is the airport ident (ex LFRK) and MYTOKEN is your AVWX token. If you don't enter an AVWX token, the GTN750 fallbacks to the sim Metar but it's less detailed and you will not get the TAF data. Charts This is a premium feature. Airport charts are available via Navigraph on MSFS 2020 and Navigraph, Lido and FAA on MSFS2024. To use the Navigraph charts, you must have a valid Navigraph subscription for charts. Lido and FAA charts are freely integrated on MSFS 2024. Before using Navigraph Charts, you must connect the GTN750 to your Navigraph account. This can be done in the Sytem/Setup/Charts page of the GPS: You will need a mobile device with a QrCode reader and your Navigraph credentials. Just follow the procedure. The Navigraph web page should give you an answer like "Code approved". Then the GTN750 displays a message "You are now connected to Navigraph". If your device gives you a blank page after entering your credentials, try with another device and/or verify your javascript settings or if you have an add or popup blocker. You may also copy the link on a computer and try from it. The chart page looks like in the native GTN750: After choosing your airport, you can use one of the chart type buttons to switch between Info, Approach, Arrival, Departure. Then select your chart from the chart select button. If you have a message, "No chart available" and you know that charts exist for the selected airport, try to re-enter your airport. You can adjust the brightnes, the day/night mode (Navigraph only) and select the chart provider from the contextual menu. Your airplane position is displayed on the map but for FAA charts because there is currently an issue with FAA charts geopositionning. Navigraph connection uses a token that must be refreshed some time to time. The GTN750 code is doing that automatically. If you have any trouble to retrieve charts, go the the setup charts page to verify your connection. Each time you enter the setup charts page, this also refreshes your Navigraph token. Nota: You will have to reconnect Navigraph in case of CTD or if you don't leave the sim via the Welcome screen "quit to desktop". There is no workaround to this issue at the moment. Vertical calculator (VCALC) This is a premium feature. The Vertical Calculator (VCALC) function allows you to create a three-dimensional profile which guides you from your present position and altitude to a final (target) altitude at a specified location. This is helpful when you would like to descend to a certain altitude near an airport. Once the profile is defined, additional data can be configured on the Map Page to keep you informed of your progress. You can also configure an alert displayed in the message page when it's time to descent or when you are reaching the target altitude. VCALC is inhibited in the following conditions: Groundspeed is less than 35 knots. No active flight plan or direct-to destination. SUSP mode. VLOC mode. OBS mode. An approach is loaded but not activated and you are flying the destination airport leg. The direct To target is not part of the flight plan. The target altitude is above the current altitude (climb). The VCALC result gives you two informations: the required vertical speed to reach the target the time to the top of descent. When there is a valid calculation, the main map page displays a TOD (Top Of Descent) waypoint: Notes: If the TOD waypoint falls into a hold, it will be displayed at 1nm of the hold end. If you are out of track, the TOD waypoint may be also out of track. If the TOD waypoint falls into an arc or turn leg, it may not be displayed exactly on the path because the TOD display algorithm considers a straight line between the waypoints. Vertical navigation (VNAV) This is a premium feature. Vertical navigation is available from the GTN750 version 2.2.32. It works only in WTT mode and if the aircraft developer didn't disable the feature. When VNAV is available, the VCALC page is replaced by the VNAV page: Vertical navigation is only for descending. You can control it from the utility/VNAV page. Steps to enable the vertical navigation: Verify that VNAV is enabled in the utility/VNAV page. Set your altitude constraints from the flight plan page. Set the autopilot altitude selector to the final target altitude (important). Verify that the autopilot is engaged (AP on) and the navigation source is "GPS". While in cruise and in ALT mode, press the autopilot VNAV button before the TOD waypoint. If your autopilot doesn't have a VNAV button or if the developer did not associate it to the correct event, you can use the integrated GTN750 autopilot page to get VNAV driven. Without a VNAV button, the vertical navigation is advisory only. Some MSFS instrument may not provide a VNAV AP button indicator. For convenience we have added this indicator in the GTN750 status bar: It's says "VNAV" when the AP VNAV is active or armed. The VNAV indicator can be disabled from the options page. Fuel planning This is a premium feature. Fuel planning is implemented nearly as the original instrument. It's currently not possible to use fuel planning for flight plan in the catalog. Only the current active flight plan can be used. To refresh the leg list while in flight plan mode, press the Flight plan key. Press the menu button to set fuel type and unit. OBS OBS mode does the following: Transform any waypoint to act like a VOR so you can set a radial to it. Suspend the flight plan to the current target waypoint. To enter OBS mode, press the OBS button from the Map page. The OBS indicator then appears in the bottom of the screen. While in OBS mode, you can set the OBS angle (radial) by the way of the right knob (10 degrees for large knob and 1 degree for small knob). You must be on the Map page. You can also enter directly the OBS value by clicking the OBS indicator in the status bar. Pushing the knob restores the OBS angle to the initial desired track. After reaching your target waypoint, press the OBS mode again to disable it and continue flying your flight plan. Disabling OBS Mode before reaching the target waypoint switches the GPS to the direct To mode. Status bar shortcuts Some status bar areas are clickable: GS Indicator (GSI) A GSI is displayed in the map page when you are flying an ILS or RNAV approach and there is available data. With a WTT compatible airplane the GSI is also displayed for visual approaches. This is not a standard feature so you can disable it from the options page. Map field pages This is a premium feature. This is a non standard feature. To activate it, you must go to the options pages and set the number of map field pages to something greater than 1. Once done you will see a small indicator at the top of the map page. You can swap the pages by pressing the dedicated area in the instrument's bottom status bar: Once a page is displayed, you can press the "Change Fields" button in the map menu to set the fields for the current page. Auto Zoom This is a premium feature. With a valid flight plan, the Auto Zoom feature will automatically change the Map page range depending on the distance to the next waypoint in the flight plan. If enabled, it will also automatically zoom to the minimum zoom range when the aircraft is on the ground (taxiing). The minimum Auto Zoom range is 4nm and the maximum is 100nm. Auto Zoom can be overridden at any time by manually zooming with the In and Out buttons. You can enable/disable the Auto Zoom feature by clicking on the zoom range indicator on the bottom part of the map page. The indicator gives the Auto Zoom state: No Auto Zoom: Auto Zoom on but not active: Auto Zoom on and active: Auto Zoom is re-activated once one of the following conditions is met: A waypoint is sequenced. The manual override range matches the Auto Zoom range. Auto Zoom is toggled off and back on in the Map page. Elevation data The sim doesn't have any elevation API so we are using an external one to get the elevation data in the main map page. This is a premium feature and requires a bingmap key. Please see instructions in the file map_key.txt located in the package Config/pms50-gtn750 subfolder for the way to set the Microsoft BingMap key. Direct-To Map Waypoint A Direct-To course may be set to any waypoint selected on the Map page. The waypoint is selected by touching an item such as an airport, VOR, or NDB or any other location. Touching the map page at any place not having an existing location name will create a waypoint with the name "MAPWP". Touching the Direct-To key will automatically insert the selected waypoint as the Direct-To waypoint. Map Visual button Optionally, the map page may displays a Visual button: This is a premium feature available only in WTT mode. Clicking the Visual button selects and activates a visual approach for the destination airport defined in the flight plan. The visual button is displayed only following some conditions defined in the Options pages: "Map Visual Button" option may have 3 values: "Disabled": the visual button is never displayed. "Always": the visual button is always displayed if the distance condition fits. "No Approach": the visual button is always displayed if the distance condition fits and there is no approach in the flight plan. "Visual Distance" defines the distance to the destination airport within which the button is displayed. In any case, if you are on the ground, the button is not displayed. Approach activation Stock mode only Approach is automatically activated when you have reached your last enroute waypoint (unless you have unset the option). If you set a Direct To, this de-activates the approach. It will be re-activated automatically if your target waypoint is part of your approach, 2nm before reaching the target. Direct To an airport Stock mode only The sim currently removes the entire flight plan (except origin) if you issue a direct To an airport. If you didn't set an origin to your flight plan you will not be able to set an approach to an airport while in direct to it. Anyway, it is advise to always set an origin in your flight plan, so first to do that when starting the GPS if there is no origin. Traffic page - TCAS This is a premium feature. TCAS (anti collision system) information is available in the premium extension in the traffic page. Aircraft near your position are represented by the usual TCAS symbols with the following range: Red square if relative distance < 2nm and relative altitude < 800ft. Orange circle if relative distance < 4nm and relative altitude < 1000ft. Filled blank diamond if relative distance < 6nm and relative altitude < 1200ft. Un-filled blank diamond if relative distance < 30nm and relative altitude < 4000ft. Altitude deviation from your own aircraft altitude is displayed (in hundreds of feet) for each target symbol. An arrow near the symbol tells if the aircraft is climbing or descending (altitude trend). TCAS data is disabled if your own aircraft is below 500ft AGL unless you have enabled the Traffic on ground option (see options page). The aircraft that do not fit one of the TCAS conditions will not be displayed. TCAS algorithms used in the mod are very simple and based only on the proximity. There is no calculation about any projected collision like in real instruments. User waypoints This is a premium feature. User waypoints are implemented nearly as the original instrument. There are still a few differences: The waypoints are organized in 20 banks of 100 waypoints each for performance reasons (instead of a single 1000 waypoints bank). The banks can be named as you want (10 characters). You can copy/paste banks and import user waypoints from an external file. The ident is limited to 5 characters instead of 6. This is because there is currently a bug in the sim where activating a leg doesn't work if the ident length is greater than 5. Idents SAR01 to SAR99 are reserved for SAR patterns and cannot be entered. There is no radial/radial mode. The latitude is limited to 75deg. This is a sim limitation on the map so we can't change it. You can't edit a user waypoint that is part of the flight plan (you can still edit the original user waypoint that you have inserted in the flight plan). Airport option is not available. To define the position of your waypoint you can use the map (drag and move), you can set directly the coordinates or you can define a reference waypoint with a radial and a distance. To insert a user waypoint in your flight plan, just select its ID like any other waypoint from the waypoint input keyboard. To manage the waypoint banks, you must press the Menu button of the user waypoints list (menu Waypoint Info / User Waypoint / View List). Then you can choose the current active bank, set its name and clear its content: You can insert user waypoints from different banks to the flight plan. Import user waypoints This is a premium feature. This feature is not available to XBOX users. The premium extension allows importing a set of user waypoints defined in a csv format file. Import file content example: UWI1,Import 1,49.09553,-0.354167 UWI2,Import 2,49.139167,-0.293333 UWI3,Import 2,49.189167,-0.293333 Each line of the import file corresponds to a single user waypoint with 4 fields separated by a comma character: Field1: Ident. 5 characters max. Contains uppercase letters or digits 0 to 9, no space. Field 2: Comment. 20 characters max. Contains uppercase or lowercase letters, spaces or the following special characters: ".", "-", "_", "@". Field 3: latitude in decimal degrees. Must be between -75 and + 75 (sim limitation). Southern values are negative. Field 4: longitude. Must be between -180 and + 180. Western values are negative. To be recognized by the GTN750, the file must be named "import.csv" and placed into the waypoints/gtn750 subdirectory of the GTN750 package inside the community folder. Only the file named import.csv is checked by the GTN750 import function. Any other files in the waypoints/gtn750 subdirectory will be ignored. To import or copy/paste user waypoints, press the "Import Waypoints" button in the "Waypoint Info" GTN menu: The "Import" button reads the import file and imports the waypoints into the current bank. Any existing waypoint with the same ident will be replaced. The "Copy" button copies the current bank waypoints to an internal buffer and to a sim level buffer. The "Paste" button imports the waypoints of the internal buffer into the current bank. Any existing waypoints with the same ident will be replaced. The "Load" button imports the waypoints of the sim buffer into the current bank. Any existing waypoints with the same ident will be replaced. In order to copy/paste user waypoints across aircraft, use the "Copy" button in the first aircraft and the "Load" button in the second one. The "Bank" button selects the current bank. The "Bank Name" button sets the current bank name. The "Delete All" button clears the current bank. SAR Patterns This is a premium feature. SAR Patterns are implemented in the premium version with a few limitations: Only one SAR pattern per flight plan. If you define a second pattern, this will erase the first one. The initial waypoint must be an enroute user waypoint. Orbit pattern is not available. The Load Pattern & Activate button is available only in WTT mode (you can't direct To a user waypoint with the stock Asobo flight planner). To create a SAR pattern, add a user waypoint in your flight plan, select it in the flight plan page and press the Load SAR button. Target altitude distance This is a premium feature. If you have set a target altitude in the flight plan, the map will show an arc (banana) representing the distance where you will reach this altitude. This may help to adjust the vertical speed. The banana will be displayed only if the following conditions are met: Map is on track up mode. Map is not in pan mode. Ground speed is greater than 20 knots. Following the target altitude mode, you have set a positive target altitude in the autopilot, in VCALC or you have an altitude constraint. See the options pages to enable the altitude mode. The vertical speed is not between -100ft and +100ft. You are descending and the target altitude + 100 feet is below the current altitude. You are climbing and the target altitude - 100 feet is above the current altitude. Switching COM/NAV index This is an extended feature not available in the real unit so it must be activated from the System/Setup/Options page. The COM/NAV switching is not available in the toolbar panel version or if the aircraft does not accept COM2. Use his option only if your aircraft provides a single GTN unit but you need to set both COM1/COM2 from this unit. If you use it with several units, the channel spacing you have set may be not retrieved correctly when you restart your flight. When the option is enabled, push the unit volume button to switch the index: The COM/NAV buttons display the current index (here COM2/NAV2). Note: this feature doesn't change the base COM/NAV index of the unit itself. It's just a way to set the values. For example if the unit is basically connected to COM1 and you choose a frequency from an airport frequency list, it will be set for COM1, even if you have displayed COM2 in the radio part. The unit index is displayed in the System Status page. If you change the channel spacing from a unit where you have enabled the COM/NAV switching, this will change it for both COM1 and COM2. Checklists This is a premium feature. Checklists are available from the Utilities page as well as in the real instrument: The checklists are defined per aircraft. Importing checklists into the instrument Before using the checklists, they must be imported into the GTN750. You can import the checklists from a local file or from a central repository managed by PMS50. After the import, the checklists are saved in the sim so it's not necessary to import them again. Note: If you have several GPS in your cockpit, the newly imported checklists will be automatically updated in any other GPS when entering the Utilities/Checklists page. Import from a local file This feature is not available to XBOX users. The checklists are written in a json file format. In order to import the checklists file, set its name to import.json and drop the file into the checklists/gtn750 subdirectory of the GTN750 package inside the community folder. Only the file named import.json is checked by the GTN750 import function. Other files in the checklists/gtn750 subdirectory will be ignored so you can put here some of your checklists files and rename (or copy) the one you want to import to "import.json". Just think to save the content of this folder, if necessary, when updating the GTN750 package to a new version. A good practice is to name the checklists file with the aircraft name (ex "c208_checklists.json"). Use the "Import local file" button from the System/Setup/Checklists page menu to import the import.json file as the current checklists in the instrument. Import from PMS50 If there is a valid checklist for your aircraft on the remote repository, press the "Import from PMS50" button to choose it: If there is no available checklists for your aircraft, the "Import from PMS50" button is greyed. The checklists availability is based on the ATC name of the aircraft as defined by the aircraft builder. Don't hesitate to submit your own checklists. See our dedicated checklists page. Checklist organization The checklists are organized in named groups. A group contains a collection of named checklists. Group and checklist names are limited to 30 characters. You can choose the group and the checklist from the contextual menu of the checklist page: A checklist is a list of items of one of the following type: CHALLENGE - Defines an action that must be checked by the user. The first line is the title (max 40 characters) followed eventually by 2 lines of description (max 100 characters). The last line is the response, for example "As required" (max 40 characters). The left side of the item shows a button to toggle item check. Once checked, the item color turns to green. SUBTITLE - Displays a subtitle (max 35 characters). TEXT - Displays a simple text (max 150 characters). NOTE - Displays a text with the "NOTE" prefix (max 150 characters). WARNING - Displays a text with the "WARNING" prefix (max 150 characters). CAUTION - Displays a text with the "CAUTION" prefix (max 150 characters). The colors are specific for each item type to easily distinguish them: Checklist file The checklists are written in a json file format. The GTN750 package is delivered with a default import.json file that you can use as a base for building your own checklists. Be sure to respect the json syntax (especially the comma separators). If the syntax is not correct, the file may be not imported or may crash the sim. The main structure of the file is the following: [ group_1, group_2, ..., group_n ] Each group is structured in this way : { "name": "group name", "checklists": [ checklist_1, checklist_2, ..., checklist_n ] } Each checklist is structured in this way : { "name": "checklist name", "items": [ item_1, item_2, ..., item_n ] } Each item is structured in this way : { "type": "TYPE (can be CHALLENGE, SUBTITLE, TEXT, NOTE, WARNING or CAUTION)", "text": "Item text (Title for CHALLENGE type)", "comment": "Comment (only for CHALLENGE type)", "response": "Response (only for CHALLENGE type)" } If you are not familiar with json, you can also use the checklist maker made by icebird4all. From the maker page, Press the help button to get the syntax. Extended map features This is a premium feature. Note: the BingMap feature is deprecated started June 28th 2025. This is a Microsoft decision. You BingMap key will not be available anymore after this date. If you own a Navigraph subscription for charts or if you have defined some custom maps, this unblocks the map icon in the Utility menu page. See the Charts chapter in this documentation for information about connecting your Navigraph account. See instructions in the file custom_map_layers_example.txt located in the package Config/pms50-gtn750 subfolder for the way to add custom maps (not available to XBOX users). In the Utilities pages, you have access to following map types: VFR - Day and Night versions (Navigraph account needed) IFR Low airways - Day and Night versions (Navigraph account needed) IFR High airways - Day and Night versions (Navigraph account needed) World - Day and Night versions (Navigraph account needed) FAA - VFR charts for US Rogers - VFR charts for Europe A double click allows adding a user waypoint at the selected position. From the menu you can choose the map type, enable/disable auto center feature and set a scale factor for a better text visibility. If auto center is set and you drag the map, the auto center mode is temporarily disabled. Re- center the airplane by the dedicated button to reactivate it. When the auto center mode is set, changing the HDG bug displays a HDG direction line: In the airport info page, if Navigraph is available, the preview shows a detailed airport view: Safe taxi This is a premium feature. The safe taxi feature delivers a detailed airport map to help you for taxiing. This requires a Navigraph subscription for charts. When enabled, the main map page automatically switches to the utility map page after landing and shows you the detailed airport map with the airplane position. There is currently no traffic data displayed. Note: there is no automatic safe taxi switching at departure time. It's up to you to go to the utility map and display the airport map (choose the "WORLD" map type). You enable and set the safe taxi parameters from the System/Setup/Options page: The "Max Speed" parameter indicates the maximum speed below which the system will be engaged after landing (default 50kts). The "Zoom Level" parameter sets the initial zoom level of the airport map (default 2). Autopilot page This is a premium feature. This module is available in the Utilities page menu. Warning. This is not a standard feature and it may not work with all the aircraft. This depends of the way the aircraft builder is managing its autopilot gauge. If the gauge is correctly made, that should work. The purpose was first to help aircraft builders to check the autopilot behavior with a known working module. The code is open source and can be reused without our authorization. The buttons are self explained so we'll not detail them here with the exception of the GA and LVL modes. note:When VNAV is available, the panel displays a VNAV button. The bottom two rows are displayed in the contextual menu for the GTN650. GA Mode is a combined pitch and roll mode that maintains the wing levelers (0 bank angle) and a VS to a predefined value (700 feet/mn by default). The GA mode can be used for takeoff, for missed approaches or just for climbing. The armed altitude, if available, is working in GA mode. LVL Mode is a combined pitch and roll mode that maintains the wing levelers (0 bank angle) and a VS to 0 feet/mn. If you move your mouse over the ALT button and you are in ALT mode, this will display the locked altitude in the screen. Otherwise, the screen displays the selected target altitude. In VS mode, pressing the UP/DN buttons displays the selected VS in the screen for a few seconds then the display comes back to the selected altitude. You can change the selected VS with the Up and DN buttons. In FLC mode, pressing the UP/DN buttons displays the selected airspeed in the screen for a few seconds then the display comes back to the selected altitude. You can change the selected airspeed with the Up and DN buttons. You can use the mouse wheel on the UP/DN buttons area to change the aircraft pitch, vs or flc references when available. To preselect an altitude, press the center part of the Alt Sel button. The toolbar panel GTN750 allows using the mouse wheel to do that too. Use the outer virtual knob for high increments and the inner one for small increments. The HDG SYNC button may not work in some aircraft. This is an aircraft issue then (ex JF Arrow). In the toolbar panel version, you can change the HDG, CRS, OBS and Baro values by using the mouse wheel when the cursor is in the corresponding button. The autopilot menu lets you modify some behavior: You can change the altitude selection mode to increments by 100/10 feet instead of 1000/100 feet. The module provides 3 modes for altitude selection: None. There is no altitude selector. Auto Arm. The autopilot automatically arms the selected altitude. First select your target altitude and then press the VS or FLC button. Manual Arm. You need to press the ARM button to arm the altitude selection. First select the target altitude, select VS or FLC and press the ARM button. In Manual Arm mode, if you don't arm, you can use the VS and FLC modes without targeting an altitude. Select the mode that better suits the aircraft autopilot gauge. The current mode is saved with your aircraft data and restored when starting up the GTN750. Changing the mode may change some autopilot modes. If the aircraft is designed to not use an autopilot module, the autopilot commands will have no effect. Thank you to not report an issue in this case. However, you can try to make the GTN750 autopilot panel working for some of these aircraft by modifying their systems.cfg file: Locate the file named systems.cfg in the aircraft package (usually in SimObjects/Airplanes/aircraftName) Edit the file and search for the [AUTOPILOT] section. Be sure to have the following lines in this section [AUTOPILOT] autopilot_available = 1 flight_director_available = 1 Tested with the DR400. Maybe with some aircraft you should also need to check or add the autopilot electrical circuit in the [ELECTRICAL] section of systems.cfg ex for the DR400: circuit.1 = Type:CIRCUIT_AUTOPILOT#Connections:bus.1#Power:10, 15, 10.0#Name:Autopilot Finally, check your engines.cfg, the "DisableAutopilotControls" flag should be set to 0. ATC page This is a premium feature. The ATC page is for VATSIM or IVAO users. It gives the list of online controllers with their frequency. The list is sorted by distance. Pressing the controller button gives specific information about this controller and/or ATIS data. Pressing the frequency button sets the frequency for COM standby. The "Filter" button allows displaying all controllers, ATIS only or anything but ATIS. The Filter button is not available for IVAO because there is not specific ATIS frequency. The "In Range" button, when set, gives only the controllers that are in range following your aircraft position and the controller visual range. For IVAO, there is currently no visual range information wo we have hardly coded it to 100nm. The "Update" button refreshes the list from the ATC source. There is a contextual menu: the "Source" button selects the ATC data source (VATSIM or IVAO). You can auto update the data at a 2 minutes frequency. "The Max Distance" is a supplementary filter that limits the displayed list to the defined range. Logs page This is a premium feature. This module is available in the Utilities page menu. It is a sim variable viewer. The lite version displays only some GTN750 variables. The premium version displays all the sim variables. Variables are organized in Groups/Sections. You can select the group/section to display from the contextual menu. The premium version takes the group/section definitions from a file located in the variables/gtn750 package subfolder. You can edit this file to suit your needs. Look at the file itself for further information. Backlight You can adjust the instrument backlight from the System/Backlight page: You can set a specific value from 1 to 12, the "Auto mode" or the "External" mode (premium) Manual mode Select the value from 1 to 12. You can change the slope of the curve by using the mitigation button. Auto mode In auto mode, the backlight value is automatically calculated from some sim day night variables. You can reduce the result with the mitigation button. External mode This is a premium feature. In external mode you can adjust the backlight by the way of the volume knob or by a sim variable. Note: in external mode, changing the backlight value will have effect on all the GTN units having the external mode set so you don't have to adjust them individually. Using the volume knob When the external mode is set, press the upper left corner of the GTN750/GTN650 screen. This changes the volume knob control from "Com Vol" to "Set Brt" mode with a time out of 5 seconds. Then use the volume knob to change the brightness. Using a sim variable In external mode, backlight is controlled by a sim variable named "L:GTN750_BRIGHTNESS". it takes numeric values from 30 to 100. You can use this variable from any external hardware or application to change the brightness. User fields Premium version and GTN750 only. By enabled the dedicated option from the options page, the audio panel and XPDR parts of the display can be replaced by a set of user fields. The default is to display the transponder and audio panel in the GTN750 first unit and to display the user fields in the second GTN750 unit if your aircraft have one. You can configure the user fields from the System menu page: Extended volume knob This is a premium feature. By setting the corresponding option from the options page, you can set an extended volume knob management. In this mode, you can use the volume knob to zoom in or out, scroll up or down. Pressing the volume knob issues a "BACK" or "CANCEL" event following the context. To set the volume in the extended mode, go to the home page first and use the volume knob as in the normal mode. Options page The options page is available from System/Setup/Options page. It provides some general options to the GTN750: Note: most of the options are saved at aircraft and unit level. Anyway you can export the settings globally and import them in another unit / aircraft. For that press the Menu icon at the bottom of the screen. This is a premium feature. Options Traffic data should be set "on" for normal operation. You can disable it for debugging purpose if you think you have an issue with traffic data (ex CTD). The Traffic refresh rate allows saving performance when searching for traffic data. You can set it to "Fast" or "Very Fast" and use a different value if you thing you have performance issue around that. Messaging system should be set "on" for normal operation. You can disable it for debugging purpose if you think you have an issue with the messaging system (ex CTD). You can disable the specific airspace messages from the messaging system. There is currently a bug in the sim's kernel with airspace management that triggers CTDs so it is strongly advised to disable the airspace messages for now. By default the GTN750 automatically activates the approach after the last enroute waypoint. You can disable this feature if you prefer a manual control of approach activation. The "Direct To button in map" option allows changing the default "Next" button of the Map pan view to "Direct To". In this way you can do a direct To directly from the popup screen. The "Display GSI in Map" option allows to display a GS indicator in the map page for ILS and RNAV approaches. "Target Altitude Source" option will set the target altitude source. Target altitude is used in the map page to display an arc (banana) representing the distance where you will reach this altitude. The GPS will take the target altitude following this option: If set to "Autopilot", the target altitude is the one entered in the autopilot (if you have one). If set to "Constraint", the GPS will use the target active waypoint constraint if there is one defined. If set to "VCALC", the GPS will use the value given in the VCALC calculator. If set to "None", the GPS will not use the target altitude and no arc will be displayed in the map. "Map compass" allows displaying the compass in the map page (premium). "Allow Com/Nav switch" allows switching the COM/NAV index so from the same unit you can set COM1, COM2, NAV1 and NAV2 frequencies. When the option is enabled, just push the volume button to switch the index. "Wind on ground" allows disabling the wind data in the wind map field when the aircraft is on the ground. "Traffic on ground" displays the traffic (TCAS) even if the aircraft is below 500ft AGL. "Map HDG line" displays a dotted heading line in the map while you are changing the heading bug. "Map Runway lines" defines the maximum map range below which the map displays a line in the alignment of the destination airport runways. "Track Vector Length" sets the length in seconds for the map track vector. When turned on, the track vector is depicted as a cyan line extending from the nose of the aircraft in the direction of movement. The length of the track vector represents the path the aircraft will follow if the present speed and direction are maintained for the time configured. "Map Traffic Range" gives the map maximum zoom range for displaying the traffic TCAS data. "Map Fuel Ring", when enabled, displays 2 fuel range rings in the main map page. One for the total range and a second one considering a reserve. The map page also displays the remaining time for the 2 ranges. "Fuel Reserve Time" sets the fuel reserve in minutes that is used to compute the map fuel range ring. "Map Visual Button" and "Visual Distance" define the map visual button options. See the "Map Visual button" chapter for further information. "Map icon" option sets the map icon. This can be Propeller (default), helicopter or jet. This is only for the maps, the chart and weather radar icons can't be changed. "Map fields page" option sets the number of field pages you can display in the map (1 to 5). See chapter "Map field pages". "Map VOR Rings",when set, allows displaying the VOR rings on the map page. "Bush Trip Flight Plan" hides/shows the map flight plan when flying a bush trip. Default is to not show the bush trip flight plan. "Optimize map FPS", when enabled, optimizes the refreshing of the map flight plan path. Useful in WTT mode because drawing the WT path may consume FPSs. "XPDR VFR Default" sets the XPDR VFR default code used by the VFR button in the XPDR panel. This can be 1200 or 7000. "XPDR + Audio Panels" enables/disables the transponder and/or audio panel in the upper part of the instrument. GTN750 only feature. "DTK Auto Sync" enables the automatic update of the CRS value to the current GPS desired track when the navigation source is GPS. This option is saved at aircraft level. The unit connected to NAV1 sets the CRS1 and the one connected to NAV1 sets the CRS2. "Safe Taxi" enables the safe taxi option. "Extended Volume Knob" set the extended volume knob feature. See the chapter "Extended Volume Knob". "Flight Planner ID" is available only when a WT G3X unit is configured in the aircraft. If the GTN750 is not defined as an external navigator it will not sync with the G3X unless you set the flight planner ID to "g3x". The "VCALC" option, when VNAV is available, allows forcing the VCALC page to display in the utility menu instead of the VNAV page. The "VNAV Indicator" option enables/disables the VNAV indicator displayed in the GTN750 status bar. See the "VNAV" chapter. The "Aircraft type" option allows you to avoid the display of certain types of airport on the map and in the nearest airport lists. For example, if the aircraft type is airliner, we'll not display heliports and soft surface airports. The SDK version option forces the current SDK version on MSFS 2024. The GTN750 automatically sets the correct SDK at start up but, in some cases, you may have to force the value (ex with the G3X V1 version). You must restart the aircraft after changing this option. The click delay option, when enabled, adds a delay between 2 mouse clicks when pressing a GTN750 screen button. This is to avoid a sim issue where clicking a button triggers 2 mouseup events. Ex: Xbox or VR controller without a mouse. This is a global option for all the GTN units in any aircraft so you don't need to set it for each aircraft. Events You can control some GTN750 actions from an external software or hardware by the way of H events. The events.pdf files in the package documentation folder provides the list of the main available H events. Toolbar panel Xbox users should install the Decathlon aircraft from Hangar Studios 713 to get the GTN750 toolbar panel working. The GTN750 is available as an in-game panel (like weather or ATC panels). A big thank you to N666OB for this feature very useful for the VR users (but not only). This allows to get the GTN750 in nearly any aircraft. The panel automatically detects the avionics technology currently used in the aircraft (Working Title or stock Asobo) and synchronizes with it. The panel version of the GTN750 is connected to the main bus for powering on (avionics bus for the in-cockpit bezel version). Displaying the panel To toggle panel display, click on its icon on the panel toolbar: The panel may take a few seconds to display. This is the time necessary to initialize the GTN750 instrument. The panel window header is hidden because it creates display issues with the instrument. You can popup the panel in a separate out of game window like any other panel. You can toggle panel visibility with the Shift + Ctrl + S key. This feature is not working on Xbox. The panel is hidden when switching from cockpit to external view. Anyway you can display it again while in the external view with the Shift + Ctrl + S key (not available on Xbox). Note: the mouse wheel is working with the panel. Panel controls Some panel areas are clickable and provide special functions The OBS Angle is available only when the current page is the map. Use the mouse wheel to change the angle. You can also click the OBS indicator to enter the OBS value directly. The Show width button will help you to resize the panel. Resizing the panel To resize the in-game panel in in game mode, change its height by dragging the mouse on the top or bottom border. The width is usually automatically adjusted. If the width is not adjusted, this is because the panel window is not large enough to maintain the aspect ratio. At this time enlarge it manually until the instrument is fully displayed. You may use the Show width button to display some hidden part of the panel. This will help you to see the exact dimensions of the panel for resizing. Moving the panel Drag and drop the dedicated area (see above) to move the panel or minimize it and move the header. In standby mode (see above), you can move the panel by drag and drop on its entire window. Minimizing the panel Click the dedicated area (see above) to minimize the panel. Pop out the panel To pop out the panel, first minimize it by clicking on the dedicated area (see above). While minimized, you can pop out the panel to an external window. Standby mode You can turn the panel in a standby mode. In this mode, the panel is inactive, preserving your FPS and avoiding some conflicts with other GPSs. To turn the panel in standby mode, click on the dedicated area (see above). Events Premium feature. The toolbar panel has no bezel. Anyway if you have an external hardware or application and want to send bezel events to the panel you can do it by the way of the following numeric variables (set it to 1 to enable the action): L:GTN750_PANEL_HomePush L:GTN750_PANEL_HomePushLong L:GTN750_PANEL_DirectToPush L:GTN750_PANEL_KnobSmallInc L:GTN750_PANEL_KnobSmallDec L:GTN750_PANEL_KnobLargeInc L:GTN750_PANEL_KnobLargeDec L:GTN750_PANEL_KnobPush L:GTN750_PANEL_KnobPushLong L:GTN750_PANEL_VolInc L:GTN750_PANEL_VolDec L:GTN750_PANEL_VolPush L:GTN750_PANEL_ToggleVisibility If you own the premium version, you can also emulate the GTN750 H events. For doing that, you must provide and edit a file named "toolbar_panel_events.txt" and put it in the Config/pms50-gtn750 package folder. You will find further information in the file Config/pms50- gtn750/toolbar_panel_events_example.txt file. Known panel issues When toggle display, the GTN750 may sometimes switch to the audio panel. The panel may not answer to click events. If this occurs, just leave the mouse outside of the panel and try again. Resizing the panel may provide some display issues (ex images lost), if this occurs try to resize it again and/or restart the GPS from the System/setup/Options menu. Some minor content display issues. Touch screen events are not transmitted by the sim to the instrument so using a pop-out GTN750 in a touchscreen will not work. This a sim issue so we can't do anything on our side. Virtual mouse The virtual mouse allow controlling the instrument from external hardware. This consists of a set of variables and H events. Premium feature. H Events Event names The H event names are in the following format: H:prefix_eventname where prefix can be: "GTN750" for the GTN750 instrument connected to COM1/NAV1 "GTN750_2" for the GTN750 instrument connected to COM2/NAV2 "GTN650" for the GTN650 instrument connected to COM1/NAV1 "GTN650_2" for the GTN650 instrument connected to COM2/NAV2 example: H:GTN750_VMOUSE_UP H:GTN650_2_VMOUSE_DOWN Toolbar panel events As a toolbar panel, it can't directly process H events so there is a set of L variables that can be used to simulate the H events. Set the variable value to 1 to enable the action. The L variables names are in the following format: L:GTN750_PANEL_eventname example: L:GTN750_PANEL_VMOUSE_UP L:GTN750_PANEL_VMOUSE_DOWN Event names VMOUSE_ON: Sets the virtual mouse on. VMOUSE_OFF: Sets the virtual mouse off. VMOUSE_UP: Sends a mouseup event for the element at the current coordinates. VMOUSE_DOWN: Sends a mousedown event for the element at the current coordinates. VMOUSE_CLICK: Sends a mousedown event and then a mouseup event for the element at the current coordinates. VMOUSE_WHEEL_UP: Sends a mousewheel up event for the element at current coordinates. VMOUSE_WHEEL_DOWN: Sends a mousewheel down event for the element at current coordinates. L variables Variable names The L variable names are in the following format: L:prefix_variablename where prefix can be: "GTN750" for the GTN750 instrument connected to COM1/NAV1 "GTN750_2" for the GTN750 instrument connected to COM2/NAV2 "GTN650" for the GTN650 instrument connected to COM1/NAV1 "GTN650_2" for the GTN650 instrument connected to COM2/NAV2 "GTN750_PANEL" for the toolbar panel example: L:GTN750_VMOUSE_STATE L:GTN650_2_VMOUSE_WIDTH L:GTN750_PANEL_VMOUSE_X Readable variable names VMOUSE_STATE: reports the current active virtual mouse state (1=active, 0=inactive). VMOUSE_WIDTH: reports the maximum value for the X coordinate. VMOUSE_HEIGHT: reports the maximum value for the Y coordinate. Writable variable names VMOUSE_X: X coordinate. Set it to move the cursor. The maximum value is the one given by the VMOUSE_WIDTH variable. VMOUSE_Y: Y coordinate. Set it to move the cursor. The maximum value is the one given by the VMOUSE_HEIGHT variable. VMOUSE_TIMEOUT: Time out value in milliseconds. Default is 0. When positive, the minimum value is 100ms. See below. Time Out Optionally, you can set a time out value. The virtual mouse will turn off after the inactivity delay given by the time out value. This feature allows saving FPSs. When using it, you should post a VMOUSE_ON event before any H event in order to wake up the virtual mouse. Testing If you want to see the virtual mouse in action, you can test it. Choose an aircraft with a GTN750 or GTN650 bezel associated to Nav1. Open the GTN750 toolbar panel. Set the transponder code to 7777. From the toolbar panel, go to the Utilities/ Clean Screen page. Right click on this page to toggle the virtual mouse and play with the mouse in the clean screen page. You should see the cursor on the GTN750 bezel. You can now control the GTN750 bezel from the GTN750 toolbar panel. You can notice that using the virtual mouse wheel events work on the bezel (test it in the map page). GTN 650 specific The GTN 650 has a hidden dedicated area for switching NAV/COM when it's displayed as a pop- out window. The usual way is to push the bottom right knob. You can also click on the following area: Touchscreen support Currently, touch screen events are not transmitted by the sim to the instrument so using a pop- out GTN750 in a touchscreen will not work. This a sim issue and we are waiting for Asobo to fix it. However, there is an alternative solution by using the MSFS Pop Out Panel Manager mod. You can find this mod here: https://fr.flightsim.to/file/35759/msfs-pop-out-panel-manager This mod adds touch screen management to popped out cockpit instruments. This has been tested successfully with and Ipad + Duet application. However, it doesn't work with the GTN750 toolbar panel for now. Be sure to check the "Touch Enabled" checkbox in the panel manager: GPS hot swapping Some aircraft may provide a way to swap GPSs from the cockpit. As an example you could choose a GNS530 or the GTN750. It is advised to choose your configuration when entering into the cockpit and to not change it after that. Your GPS may have to restart when selecting it. Crash To Desktop (CTD) Unfortunately, the sim's kernel is not very stable at the moment and you may experiment a CTD. Most of the time, the GPS code is not directly responsible of that unless you can reproduce (at 100% of the time) a CTD sequence by only manipulating the buttons of the GPS. In this case you will get the CTD immediately after pressing a button. A CTD is a combination of events that will overstress the kernel or making it to reach an unsafe part of the code. It is also linked to your hardware and software environment and settings. So what to do in case of a CTD? First read that. Disable the airspace messages from the System/Setup/Options page of the GTN750 (there is know issue at Asobo level with airspaces). Verify that your drivers are up to date and that your CPU/GPU is not overclocked. Update the GTN to the last version. Set the sim's weather to "clear sky". Remove temporarily all unusefull Mods. Try to reproduce a sequence that should help us to find a fix or a workaround. Exchange your experience on our discord server. Sending a support ticket for a CTD without a way to reproduce the sequence at 100% will not help. We really want to help you but we are completely helpless if we can not reproduce the issue. So if you can't reproduce the CTD case 100% of the time (or nearly), just exchange your experience on the discord server by giving as much information as you can. Exiting MSFS IMPORTANT Always exit MSFS via the Welcome screen "quit to desktop". If you kill it hardly or by the windows top right cross or by alt f4, some GTN750 settings may not be saved. Unfortunately, in case of CTD, the settings you have changed during your session will not be saved. If you hardly leave MSFS or you have a CTD, you will have to reconnect Navigraph too. Integrators If you want to integrate the GTN750 in your aircraft or modify an existing aircraft, there is an integrator's guide available in the Integration subdirectory of the GTN750 package. Sim updates The game is constantly evolving. ASOBO regularly publishes updates. Some of these updates can cause some problems on the GTN750 or even make it stop working. We usually need a few hours to release an update that will be in line with new MSFS product developments. Thanks to wait a little before requesting support if you have some issues just after a sim update. We apologize for this momentary inconvenience. Everyone is doing their best to make this game as functional and realistic as possible. Bug reporting If you got a sim crash / CTD, please read the Crash To Desktop chapter above. Before reporting a bug: Read the documentation (maybe not a real bug but a normal behavior) Install the latest release Check the installation (see chapter verifying the installation in this documentation). Remove any other MOD or livery Remove any external hardware or software involved with MSFS Take some time to search for the fastest sequence that reproduces the bug Re-install the product Restart the sim Reboot the computer Set the weather to clear sky at midday. Try with another aircraft and eventually with a different GPS (if this is a flight plan issue). If you get a CTD, especially without manipulating the GPS buttons, first try disabling the traffic data and messaging system from the GTN750 options page in System/Setup menu. If you still have some CTDs, try to set the GTN in safe mode. When reporting please provide: All the information necessary to reproduce the bug. Be very precise The exact flight plan (textual) The version number The aircraft type The list of installed Mods and liveries. If we are not able to reproduce the issue, it will be very difficult to fix it. Messages just like "I got a froze" or "I got a CTD" without further information will not help. We cannot support external hardware, software, other MODs nor liveries. Please try without them before requesting support. Thank you for your understanding. Known issues Flight plan preview displays the theoretical sequence of waypoints. This may differ from the real waypoints that will be calculated by the sim's kernel in your flight plan. It may add/remove some waypoints around your first approach waypoint. This is not an issue at the GPS level and occurs with other GPSs. In WTT mode the GTN750 displays the correct sequence of waypoints. There is currently a bug in the sim's kernel with airspace management that triggers CTDs. It is strongly advised to disable the airspace messages for now. You can disable airspace messages from System/Setup/Options page. Displaying Nexrad in one GPS and in the same time a weather radar in another GPS may produce some bad data in the weather radar. Searching waypoints by name or city is not working well in the sim for now so the functionality has been disabled in the GPS. Touch screen events are not transmitted by the sim to the instrument so using a pop-out GTN750 in a touchscreen will not work. This a sim issue so we can't do anything on our side. However, there is an alternative solution by using the MSFS Pop Out Panel Manager mod (see the "Touchscreen support" chapter above). The airplane may be be not centered correctly on the map at extreme latitudes and for maximum zoom out level (Asobo issue that limits the map to 75° lat). The Asobo flight planner removes your flight plan when you issue a direct To an airport. No such issue with the WT flight planner (WTT mode). Change log v2.2.59 Bugfix: Map field buttons do not function correctly when changing the map field page. v2.2.58 Added an option to the WTT internal mode that disables the GPS NAV arming mode. v2.2.57 Bugfix: User fields not responding correctly when there is a click Delay set on the options page. Bugfix: disabling the map HDG line was not working. Added an option to restart the internal WTT mode. v2.2.56 Added an option for a click delay. This is to avoid a sim issue where clicking a button triggers 2 mouseup events. Ex: Xbox or VR controller without a mouse. The G1000 MFD replacement packages are deprecated. They are still available on our website but are no longer supported anymore and we don't provide any support for them. Keep your G1000Nxi MFD and use the GTN750 toolbar panel which is fully compatible with the G1000Nxi. v2.2.55 Added the Navigraph VFR charts for Europe (Rogers charts). v2.2.54 Bugfix: No vertical guidance for RNP approaches. v2.2.53 Adding a delay between 2 mouse clicks (console only). This is to avoid a sim issue on Xbox where, with the Xbox controller in cursor mode, clicking a button triggers 2 mouseup events. v2.2.52 bugfix: The contextual button H events were not working correctly. The contextual button events are now a premium feature. Charts provider now defaults to Navigraph on MSFS 2024 when there is an active Navigraph account linked. The charts provider can be changed from the charts page contextual menu. Added the Night/day switch for the Lido charts. Radio part events are now a premium feature. MSFS 2024: Use of the internal sim elevation data on the map page instead of an external API (faster). Adding a delay between 2 mouse clicks (optional). This is to avoid a sim issue on Xbox where, in rare cases, clicking a button could trigger 2 mouseup events. Old swapping variables (*_HIDDEN) are deprecated. v2.2.51 bugfix: The sim variable GPS WP NEXT ID could be wrong in WTT internal mode. The fix is a workaround to a sim issue. Preparing the code for PS5. Added a sim variable that gives the index of the current page displayed (see events.pdf file). Premium feature. GoToPage events are now a premium feature. The free version becomes the "lite" version (Still free when downloaded from our website). v2.2.50 bugfix: error when importing a flight plan and the first enroute waypoint is part of an airway. Panel events are now a premium feature. Adding export/import functions to the options page (contextual menu). Premium feature. v2.2.49 bugfix: the detection of the MSFS version (2020 or 2024) was not working with helicopters. v2.2.48 MSFS 2024: We have added Lido and FAA charts as an alternative to Navigraph charts. Note that FAA charts have a georeferencing issue, so we have disabled the aircraft position for them. Removing the dot characters from the ident string when importing a flight plan. Added the Airac cycle version for the Asobo database to the system / system status page. The Import from file function can now import files saved by the MSFS 2024 EFB. Get METAR from the nearest station when none available at the given airport. v2.2.47 Single package for MSFS 2020 and MSFS 2024. Dynamic selection of the framework version in MSFS 2024. Added a warning message when the G3X version is not compatible with the current framework version. Possibility to fix it from the options pages. Bugfix: MSFS 2024. The flight plan may not display correctly on the flight plan page. v2.2.46 Added an aircraft type option (premium). Bugfix: in the 2024 version, some LNAV data was not initialized correctly after restarting a GTN unit. Bugfix: the com frequency display may be wrong with 25Khz channel spacing. APGA: fixed an issue where the indicated altitude may be wrong (99000) when swapping GPS. Bugfix (2024): some user waypoints may have bad dtk/distance when the GTN750 toolbar is used with a G1000Nxi. Bugfix: Sim Metar fallback (without avwx token) was not working. Bugfix: On MSFS 2024, when using the stock Asobo flight planner, setting procedures was impossible. v2.2.45 Bugfix: Airport name not displayed in the direct To nearest airport list. Separate GTN750 packages for MSFS2020 and MSFS2024. v2.2.44 Changed the WTT active mode detection. Bugfix: Can't select a visual approach in v2.2.43 Bugfix: from v2.2.42, the find Nearest frequency page is empty. v2.2.43 Bugfix: in V2.2.42 , the WT autopilot may not initialize correctly in some aircraft. v2.2.42 MSFS2024 compatibility (experimental). In the airport info preview page, if Navigraph is available, the map now displays a detailed airport view. Bugfix: altitude constraints on the map page may be wrong for the departure waypoints. Bugfix: the com frequency digit part on the radio part may be wrong (display bug, the sim frequency itself is correct). v2.2.41 Bugfix: the toolbar panel on Xbox was not synchronizing correctly with the WT G3X. v2.2.40 Bugfix: the Add Waypoint button on the flight plan page may fail when there is an approach or an arrival loaded. v2.2.39 Bugfix: In v2.2.38, some waypoint info data may be wrong or not displayed. v2.2.38 Bugfix: WTT mode. Direct To a waypoint of the flight plan may target the wrong one if the same waypoint is used at several places. Note: this bug still exists in non-WTT mode because the stock Asobo SDK is not able to manage this situation. v2.2.37 Bugfix: some frequencies were not set correctly when using the 25Khz channel spacing. Bugfix: the unit may fail to read the config from panel.xml file. Bugfix: the TOGA indicator in the AP panel was not set correctly. v2.2.36 Defender false positive on v 2.2.35. v2.2.35 Bugfix: VNAV data not correctly updated in some situations. Bugfix AP panel: the active lateral mode may be blank after auto switch to VLOC mode. Bugfix: Error in in the TAS calculation algorithm especially for high altitudes. WTT mode: added a config option to enable GS arming when the NAV source is GPS. The default is to disable GS in this case. v2.2.34 Bugfix: wrong TOD position while in direct To. v2.2.33 Bugfix: wrong TOD position when there is a magnetic deviation. WT Mode: the approach constraints are editable now. v2.2.32 Added VNAV driven by the autopilot. Premium only. Requires the internal WTT mode. Scrolling the flight plan after adding a waypoint. v2.2.31 Bugfix: Direct To a user waypoint not working. v2.2.30 Bugfix: Workaround to a WT issue: wrong DTK when the aircraft is on the ground and not moving. v2.2.29 Bugfix: The TOD waypoint position may be wrong. Bugfix: The flight page may be corrupted after a direct To a departure or arrival waypoint. v2.2.28 Bugfix: Arrival altitude constraint type not displayed correctly. WTT mode: Added the "Revert Constraint" button to revert an edited constraint to the original published data. v2.2.27 Bugfix: Autopilot re-engaging by itself after landing when there is no flight director in the aircraft. Aircraft developers can force the WTT mode. v2.2.26 Bugfix: the "activate vectors to final" button was not greyed for the Asobo flight planner on the procedure page. G3X compatibility bug fixes after the latest SU15 beta update. v2.2.25 Bugfix: the departure constraints are not displayed. Bugfix: the distance to destination field freezes the map page. v2.2.24 The WT layer has been upgraded to the latest version of the framework. This is a major change so you are encouraged to keep the previous version somewhere and revert to it if you encounter a problem. The GTN750 can be configured as an external navigator for the WT G3X. Aircraft developers can now embed a specific version of the GTN750 in their package. v2.2.23 Bugfix: WTT: importing a flight plan with user waypoints was not working in the previous versions (probably from 2.2.19). v2.2.22 WT G3X compatibility code step 3. Removing a file from the package that overrides an Asobo avionics file. This override had no consequences on the sim but it no longer seems necessary. Smoothing the fuel ring display to avoid small fluctuations. v2.2.21 WT G3X compatibility code step 2. Bugfix: the active leg was not displayed correctly in the flight plan page when flying the leg to the destination airport. Bugfix: opening the Navigraph charts panel may change the NAV source from GPS to VLOC. v2.2.20 Bugfix: WT G3X compatibility code: approaches not working. v2.2.19 Bugfix: With the helicopter models, the CDI button may not switch from VLOC to GPS. Bugfix: The flight plan synchronization to ATC may fail. Preparing the code for an upcoming WT G3X compatibility. v2.2.18 WTT mode: Smoothing the transition from ALT to VS mode. APGA: bugfix: the WTT detection may fail in case of GPS hot swapping. APGA: workaround to an Asobo bug that may issue some unexpected H events after a flight restart. If you have installed one of the WTT additional package for the BrsDesign bonanza or debonair, the Erasam tecnam P92, the Milviz C310, you should upgrade it to the latest version. Increasing the nearest airspace refresh rate. WTT mode: added half/low bank management. WTT mode: added config parameters for bank angle values. WTT mode: added some code for checking the flight plan integrity. v2.2.17 WTT mode: Added the manual arming altitude management. See the integrator's guide. Safe taxi: the night view is now also set at sunset and sunrise times (only at night time in previous versions). Bugfix: the initial departure path may be wrong when starting from the parking. v2.2.16 Bugfix: WTT mode: Removing a waypoint may not update correctly the flight plan path. Bugfix: WTT mode: Some enroute waypoints may not be loaded from the ATC flight plan. Added a DTK Auto Sync option that automatically sets the CRS value to the current GPS desired track (premium). Added an option for an extended volume knob management. In this mode, you can use the volume knob to zoom in/out, scroll up/down and back to the previous page (premium). Fixed some issues when adding/removing origin/destination. WTT mode: a random direct To an airport sets the airport as the flight plan destination so it's possible to choose an approach. v2.2.15 Bugfix: The WTT mode may fail to start making the autopilot not working as expected. v2.2.14 Bugfix: WTT mode: a direct TO may turn the aircraft in the wrong direction. Changed the OBS logic. Added the Direct TO course setting (WTT mode and premium). Smoothing of the Wind velocity value. Added the TO/GA management in WTT mode. Added a WTT config entry in the panel.xml file (see the integrator's guide). v2.2.13 Bugfix: WTT mode external: the instrument may be unresponsive when connected to the WT GNS530. This issue happens only in v2.2.12. v2.2.12 Bugfix: WTT mode: the displayed path for CF leg types was sometimes wrong. Bugfix: toolbar panel display issues in VR when the panel size is high. Bugfix: the bingmap roads map was not selectable in the previous version. Bugfix: a direct to the first waypoint of a VTF approach was making the approach not work correctly. Bugfix: with the Asobo flight planner, the direct To arrow was not displayed in the approach sequence. v2.2.11 Added a way for integrators to customize the CDI button behavior. See the integrator's guide. Added custom map layers in the utility map page. See the file custom_map_layers_example.txt located in the package Config folder. Added a map traffic range option for the main map page. Added a sort alpha button for airway exit waypoint selection. v2.2.10 BugFix: WTT mode: The flight director may not initialize correctly in some aircraft (ex TBM 850). Added the Navigraph US FAA Map on the utility page (premium). Changed the way to select the Utility maps. v2.2.9 Added the possibility to independently disable XPDR and Audio panel (premium). The freed space is then used for user fields. WTT mode: Added a visual button in the map page (see the manual chapter "Map Visual button"). Premium feature. Bugfix: the Bingmap key was saved at the instrument level instead of the global level. v2.2.8 Added an option for displaying user fields as a replacement for the audio panel and transponder (premium). Bugfix GTN650: The wind direction in the default navigation page was bad (Track up instead of North Up). Bugfix: WTT mode: bad target Direct To in the flight plan page when activating an approach and the last enroute waypoint is the same as the IAF. Bugfix: The map waypoint's constraint may blink if the waypoint appears 2 times in the flight plan. v2.2.7 Bugfix: The new toolbar panel events were not working in the previous release. Fallback to the sim Metar if AVWX call fails. The sim Metar is less detailed and there is no TAF data. v2.2.6 Bugfix: WTT external mode: Restarting the GTN750 toolbar panel while flying a hold may reset the active leg. Added the GTN750 toolbar panel events mapping (H events simulation). Premium only. Added a new set of GPS hot swapping variables for a deeper control (integrator's only). See the latest integrator's guide. We are now Using the BingMap APi for elevation data (requires the Bingmap key). Added a virtual mouse to control the instruments from external hardware. Premium only. v2.2.5 WTT mode: The VS autopilot director has been updated. Bugfix: The nearest airport list may fail to initialize. Added the Find button in the frequency selection page (premium). Bugfix: issues around the COM Channel spacing saving state. v2.2.4 Bugfix: WTT mode: ILS approach not working with the Black Square TBM 850. Added an option to disable the click sound. v2.2.3 Bugfix: WTT mode: Leaving OBS mode may corrupt the flight plan. The flight plan "insert before" button now works for the origin so it can be changed. The origin is pre-populated with the nearest airport if the Asobo flight plan is empty. Bugfix: the airport altitude may be bad after a hot GPS swapping. v2.2.2 WTT mode: Better management of adding waypoints on the flight plan page. Bugfix: Some frequencies were not settable from the frequency keyboard (ex 120.030). v2.2.1 Added an option to show/hide the bush trip flight plan (hidden by default). Bugfix: The trip timer was reset at touch down when the criteria is "In Air". Bugfix: More than one active waypoint displayed on the map page. Bugfix: the sim VFR map may not refresh the flight path. Bugfix: bad IAF detection for a few approaches. v2.2.0 Added an external brightness control mode. Bugfix: Heliport waypoint may not be selectable or is incorrectly displayed. Bugfix: The user waypoint icon is not displayed from v2.1.98. Bugfix: Some HOLD types were editable when they shouldn't (HA and HF leg types). Bugfix: Waypoint label size and position issues. v2.1.99 Import from Simbrief: importing the enroute altitude constraints. Bugfix: the "Load Approach & Activate" button in the approach selection page was issuing a vectors to final instead of a direct To the STRGHT waypoint. Bugfix: Weather radar displayed with a bad vertical offset. v2.1.98 Added the Fast find feature in the waypoint selection page. Premium only. Added the TOD waypoint in the main map page when the vertical calculator (VCALC) is active. Experimental feature. Bugfix: the WTT mode may fail to start in Cold and Dark mode for some aircraft. Bugfix: WTT mode. When doing a new flight after landing without leaving the world map, the RNAV approach mode may not work on the next flight. v2.1.97 Added the map waypoint feature. This allows a direct To any clicked map point. When the clicked point is not a valid ICAO waypoint, this creates a map waypoint. Then, if you press the direct To, you will see this map waypoint directly selected so you can direct to it. This works also from the Utility map. Premium only. Added the flight plan path in the utility map. Bugfix: when removing an approach in WTT mode, the destination ident is the runway instead of the airport. Bugfix: the Fuel planning utility works now with the A2A Comanche. v2.1.96 Added the arc view on the terrain page. Added Knob events in the waypoint selection page (experimental). Fixed some fuel planning issues. Bugfix: The waypoint airport info page may not display correctly. Bugfix: some ILS frequencies were sometimes not displayed. v2.1.95 Autopilot utility: For the GTN650, the HDG, CRS, OBS and Baro buttons are now available from the contextual menu. Enroute constraint altitudes are now saved with the flight plan (as "At" type only). Added the Generic and trip timer values as a map field. Bugfix: some H events sent from external hardware/software may not be received by the first unit if the instrument is connected to COM1/NAV1 and is indexed in the panel.cfg file. This happens with the H145 helicopter. Bugfix: The waypoint airport info page may not display correctly. Bugfix: Fixed some direct To issues when using the stock Asobo flight planner. v2.1.94 Rebuilding the traffic code. Added a traffic refresh rate option. Added the autopilot panel in the GTN650. Added the time zone on the airport info page. Added Aera and G3X (not touch) versions compatible with the WTT mode. Bugfix: No map VOR ring for VORTAC. Bugfix: the visual approach was not working as expected for the G3X WTT aircraft. This requires updating your WTT mode for these aircraft. Bugfix: in WTT mode, the last enroute waypoint before the arrival segment may be displayed as part of the arrival when there is no approach in the flight plan. Bugfix: wrong range ring calculation when the fuel unit is not the gallon. v2.1.93 Added the fuel range rings in the main map page (premium). Bugfix: the user waypoint label may not display correctly. Added direct To a user waypoint for the stock Asobo flight planner (already working for WT flight planner). Smoothing transitions for the airplane icon and tiles on the utility map page. Fixed a few minor bugs. v2.1.92 Added the map fields DME distance and VOR Radial (To and From). Premium only. Added the map fields Altitude above ground (AGL) and True airspeed. Added a track vector to the map page (premium). Added the VOR rings on the map page (with option). Added the altitude constraint display in the VCALC waypoint selection list. Added a global option for fuel type and fuel unit. Added a shortcut to access the options page from the map page. See the "Status bar shortcuts" chapter in the manual. Separate options for NDB and VOR display in the map page. Bugfix: The airport info runway map got blinking labels. v2.1.91 Bugfix: some flight plan waypoint labels were not refreshed correctly. Added a G3X version compatible with the WTT mode (for integrators, see the integrator's guide). The map TRK field is now the plane heading if the ground speed is less than 2kts. v2.1.90 Import user waypoints from sim ATC: the 5 first characters of the waypoint label is now used for naming the waypoint instead of USRxx. Note: if a waypoint with the same label but different coordinates already exists, we still use USRxx as the name. Added an option to optimize FPS on the map page. The map waypoint loader has been rebuilt. More waypoints and faster display. Faster flight plan updates on the flight plan page. v2.1.89 Changed the runway lines options. Now you can set the maximum zoom level to display them. Flight plan import: user waypoints with an ICAO code are now accepted (a workaround to a Navigraph charts issue). Changed the map colors. v2.1.88 Changed the main font. Added a few animations. Better icon quality. Knob mode reset to COM action after 30s of inactivity if the previous action was NAV. Added a KnobPushLong event. The action is the standby/active frequency swapping. This requires some modifications by the aircraft developers. Added a DTK change alert message (premium and WTT mode only). Added a Traffic alert message (premium). Added the runway lines for the destination airport (premium). v2.1.87 Added a safe taxi feature (requires a Navigraph subscription for charts). Check the documentation for further information.
