evm Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 I'm not sure about this, but you may want to check if there is a separate SP1d update for the 600/700 expansion (WxR came with that SP). I seem to recall that I had to re-download both packages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 You can also go and register on the PMDG Support site (as long as you have your required receipt for the product) http://support.precisionmanuals.com/Main/ Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer!

Soar 21 Posted August 18, 2015 Author Share Posted August 18, 2015 i am pretty sure i have the 737 expansion sp1d update because my PMDG OPS center says its fully up to date i am going to reinstall the 737 and see if fixes anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evm Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Remember,these are two installers and two separate planes, even if one is called base package and the other is the expansion. I'd re-download both (but you probably only need the SP1d installer for the 600/700 expansion). This didn't work through the control center, both were full installers. You probably did only get the SP1d for the base package and the expansion is not updated (wild guess, but I think the 600s panel config is missing the Wxr gauge that came with SP1D in the base package - or something like that).

Sentry_FiveZero Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 I have dl'd both sp1d packages and "repaired" both sets of planes. Nothing is happening when I push the WXR button. ???

Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk The latest version is 1.10.6461. I assume you have ASN installed? You are clicking the WXR on the EFIS control panel? There is actually rain to see on the radar? Also the radar settings themselves will change how much is seen. IE: tilt, gain, etc.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I even switched over to the 777 to make sure. And it works fine with it. Only on the 737 am I not able to get it to work. I click the button and nothing changes on the display. The panel on the center console is completely deactivated as I cannot push any button or make adjustments with the knobs. And I'm looking out the window to see rain falling!

MBKHOU Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 Sounds weird.. The center panel controls will work when it's working. And if you had "terrain" selected on the EFIS control panel, hitting "WXR" should blank out the terrain and redraw the radar after 2-3 sweeps. Pretty sure anyway.. The only thing I can think of offhand is to reinstall all three SimConnect's, particularly if you are using FSX-SE. If that doesn't do it, I would pester PMDG support.. I imagine they could get it lined out fairly quick. But for some reason I'm kind of thinking it's not connecting with the radar data or something along those lines. Make sure no AV blocking, etc as far as ASN. edit.. as far as the AV, I see your 777 is working, so that means all should be OK on the ASN side, or the 777 wouldn't work either. Another thing.. Was that a full delete and reinstall, or a reinstall over a older version? Some had problems with installing over a previous version. Mine wouldn't let me do it at all. I had to uninstall and reinstall. So if it's copied over an old install, you might consider uninstalling, and then reinstalling. I'd back up all my planes, and other stuff.. It will overwrite any modified PMDG files such as sounds, etc.. So I back all that up and copy over to the new install. One other clue as to if it's working or not.. You will see wxr data in blue letters on the left side of the ND when the radar is on. Probably the same in the 777.. It will be above the "TRF" which is lower left, assuming it's set on in the TCAS control on the center panel.. BTW, it will also add wind shear warnings, both audio and on the ND. Will look like yellow and then red arrows so to speak which aim towards the perceived wind mayhem. I've had it go off a couple of times.. Also you can set wind shear and micro bursts in ASN in the tools/debug page. Not for the faint of heart... :eek: It will eat your lunch if you ain't on top of things.
