Thank you Patrick, WilloW

Hello Perhaps a silly question, but do I uninstall the older vesion prior to installing the latest version ? Thank You, WilloW

Thank you Urs, WilloW

Greetings: I have just updated my version of EFB to the latest version. Do I also need to update the AIRAC cycle from Navigraph? Where do I install the new AIRAC cycle ? Thank you, WilloW

Hi Urs I understand now. The charts used in EFB are the Navigraph FMC charts and NOT the Navigraph approach charts, etc. Thanks for clarifying. Regards, Iain

Hi - Are the charts with EFB the same charts that can be purchased from Navigraph using their nDAC viewing program? Thanks, Iain

Hi GG Flyer - As this is only a new install of FSX, to reload is not a huge issue. I will reinstall FSX from scratch including the SDK, then see what happens from there. If problems, I'll do as you suggest. Active Sky Evolution was not able to connect with FSX, and after install of SDK, EFB also was not able to connect. I believe the issue is simconnect, or perhaps because I'm also running wide ex and FSUPIC (Peter Dowson). I require FSUPIC as this is used for other hardware connections (full flight deck). Thanks, WilloW

Hello; Thanks for the replies. OK I uninstalled SDK and EFB still is in yellow mode. I reinstalled SDK from DVD and EFB is still in yellow mode Date Provider states simconnect status "inactive" How do I obtain a green mode light? I also note that the Data Provider stops working and displays in the upper menu "not responding". It then closes when WIN 7 window comes up asking if I want to close the program. Can you please provide advice on how to rectify these issues. Cheers, Iain

Hello Urs, Is the SDK on the gold edition FSX DVD the latest SP2 version? If so, I downloaded SP1A over the top of this (that was stupid on my behalf) It maybe prudent to uninstall the SDK and reinstall from DVD again - perhaps this will solve my issue Should I do this?? I also note that there is a SP2 update available. http://www.microsoft.com/Products/Games ... pdate.aspx WilloW

Hi Urs I installed the SDK from FSX gold edition disc 1. I have SP1 and SP2 installed for FSX I then updated the SDK using this update from the below site http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/de ... x?id=10027 Is this the correct method? Thanks, WilloW

Hi - Both computers are running WIN 7. EFB working perfectly, until, I installed and configured Active Sky Evolution SP3 on my client computer Since installing ASE, the data provider works OK, but states in the black box "simconnect status inactive" The display unit only now works in "yellow" mode and not green mode. Therefore the moving map and airplane icon is disabled. As part of the Active Sky Evolution install I had to install SimConnect from the SDK and alter the port designation to 500. I also had to write my STATIC IP address in the .xml file Maybe this has caused a problem? Can someone guide me to a solution please. I'm really pulling my hair out on this - both active sky and EFB are now inoperative - thank you, WilloW

Ah yes I see now - thank you. I'm not sure how I missed that as it's staring at you in the face Willow

Greetings all: I'm probably not doing this correctly. I've read the manual (20 of 38), however, cannot seem to be able to view departure or approach charts based on my route selected. Can some enlightened sole please point me in the right direction - if it isn't too complicated a method... Cheers, Iain

Ah OK - thanks.

Hello: Finally have downloaded and installed EFB into my new system. What I see to date impresses me - thank you. Does EFB include a complete list of all charts from Navisoft - or just a collection of some of those available? Thanks, WilloW
