AS_225_TSO and COMM2

Hi,

I can't display COMM2 on the AS_225 (ASOBO template applied correctly)
Find the code below:

<UseTemplate Name="ASOBO_AS_225_TSO">    
                <FAILURE>(A:CIRCUIT ON:37, Bool)</FAILURE>
                <DIMMING_FACTOR>0.5</DIMMING_FACTOR>
                <POTENTIOMETER>7</POTENTIOMETER>
                <CIRCUIT_ID>37</CIRCUIT_ID>
                <COM_INDEX>2</COM_INDEX>
                <ID>1</ID>
</UseTemplate>


- When COM_INDEX value is "1" the AS_225 screen is working and showing the COMM1.

- When COM_INDEX value is "2" the AS_225 screen is black. No more informations displayed. However All buttons/rotary anim's are working.

I have COMM 1 on GNS530 and I would like COMM 2 on AS_225 but it seems to be impossible.

Do you have any idea please ?

Thank you.

Hello @PESIM_Thomas ,

If you use the FSX electrical system, you need to check that your NAVCOM2_CIRCUIT circuit is properly connected and that it is powered.

If you are using the new electrical system (not the fsx one), you will need to have the CIRCUIT_NAV:2 and CIRCUIT_COM:2 circuits both connected and powered.

You can also override the parameter <FAILURE>


Regards,
Boris

Lets check this first...

Does your aircraft know there is a second comm radio? Make sure to have this in the systems.cfg

Hello,
We've worked a lot on AS_225 and if we check RENO aircraft (L39) there is an AS225 gauge.
But it's using the COMM1 ONLY and GNS430 is using COMM2. You can't change COMM value for AS225. We are working on another solution.

Thank you for your support again.
