Hello

I am trying to configure the gpws test button for my pmdg 737's mip, i used the event 70132, it works but the gpws doesnt start.

I miss something??

Hi

Here PMDG got a little logic problem. This Button get two functions in the Aircraft....
A short push ( less then 2 seconds) start the small testing programm only with high priority functions.... A Pushing of 2 seconds or longer start the full testing run.
Look here to see difference between the 2 different tests.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d9lRomzmbjA


Maby cause of this here the standard "Left single Command" not is enough. ( Bad that PMDG not make a short Note in the List here)
( Only using Left single will push the button but not release it.... This will then start the Big Test after 10 seconds but can occure in errors too.)



Please set your pushbutton with commands for Press AND Release !

ON PRESS :
EventID 70132
Command Left Single Parameter: 536870912

ON RELEASE
Same EventID 70132
Command LeftRelease Parameter: 131072

A Short push now starts Test A .... A Push longer 2 seconds starts Test B.

On my system both testing functions work !
( If you can´t hear the sound get shure in the PMDG Settings GPWS Sound is activated ! .... You see the running test additional in the ND and PFD)


Please report if this solve and awnser your request so i can close the topic.
