Updating navigraph with latest airac cycle

[spidierox]

Hi, 

 

I recently updated all my add-ons with the latest ARIAC cycle from navigraph, including EFB.

 

However, I recently discovered that the information on the Display Unit for the ILS Freq.@ EBAW (Antwerp, Belgium) for runway 29 is 109.10, while the airac says it is 111.75 (= current RL freq., so this is the correct freq).

The data provider confirms the version of the airac (=latest version) during startup so I was wondering how comes the display unit still shows the old ILS freq ?

 

I have a networked configuration with FSX+ dataprovider and on another PC the displayUnit.

Do I need to update the display Unit too with the latest ARIAC cycle (so that the correct freq. is shown ?)

 

Anyone can help or advise please ? highly appreciated.

 

 

kind regards,

Dieter

Hi Dieter,

EFB always displays the ILS frequency which can be tuned on your radios. It makes not much sense to display a frequency from real world while you are flying in a simulated world where you can only tune the frequencies from the BGL files.

 

If you fly an aircraft which auto-tunes the ILS frequencies with the frequencies from the navdata, you will experience an approach without glideslope and/or localizer.

 

To avoid this, two workarounds are possible:

1) you might try the navaid and ILS update from Hervé Sors, which - from my point of view - becomes more and more important.

2) you manually tune the radios using the frequencies displayed by EFB

Hi Urs,

 

Thanks for replying.

Makes every bit of sense what you say.

Think I'll checkout Hervé Sors.

 

Thanks for such a great tool like ESB !

 

kind regards,

Dieter
