Aircraft Settings

To use the SimBridge the aircraft's settings need to allow the SimBridge connection.

The three settings are:

• Auto:
  • The aircraft attempts to connect to SimBridge for 5min after pressing "Ready to Fly" (Active is shown).
  • If this setting is selected the displays will try to connect to SimBridge for 5min after every start of a new flight.
  • After 5min of unsuccessful connection attempts the aircraft will stop any further attempts and Inactive will be shown.
  • If Inactive is shown, but you want to connect to SimBridge just click on Off, wait a few seconds and then click on Auto again.
• Off:
  • The displays will not make any attempts to connect to SimBridge.
