Just upgraded to v8 on a 4500. There is no setup page for VP-X, just an on/off, is this correct?

v8 has fixed a missing item on the Check VP-X page, thanks.

Yes, that is correct. We now get all settings from the VP-X.

Thanks Trevor. Since upgrading I have lost SV. Tried the AFSMAPEU_V15_TV.zip, and the old Map files. What files are required on the Map card for Europe?

Many thanks
Norman

Norman, do you have the new AF2 TER and VEC files? They are on our Webstore. Leave the same AFSMAPEU.AFM file on the card, just replace the other two.

So I require the US files for Europe?

Thanks

No, you need the Jeppesen International Terrain and Vector files. If you go to the webstore, there is a link for Jeppesen international mapping.

I have from the Jeppesen file AFSMAPEU_15_TV.zip :

AFSTEREU.AFM
AFSVECWW.AFM

None with AF2....

Can you be a bit more specific , maybe a list of files please would help.

Thanks
Norman


There are no files starting AF2. I can download the AF

Hi Trevor.

Same thing here - I am about to upgrade to the latest sw version and I live i Europe. In your link are the vector and terrain files - in format AF2VECEU.AFM and AF2TEREU.AFM.

But what about a: AF2MAPEU.AFM ??

I got the 4500 and 3500 from you some weeks ago shipped to Sweden and they are mounted and work fine. Do you know which sw version was installed and which ter, vec and map files where added?

Regards
Andreas

We kept the international map file names AFS rather than AF2 because it would require Jeppesen to change their format, which we didn't want to do. The VEC and TER files must start with AF2 though.

Thanks SV now working.

When turning on the 4500, for a short period before the 'I Agree', the screen display is scrambled.This doesn't have any detrimental effect, but just looks bad. This happens every time, whether on internal battery, aircraft battery or external power.

Hello Norman. That is completely normal, not necessarily what we'd like though. That happens as the video driver for the hardware loads. We could make the screen go completely black during that time so it doesn't show the scrambled screen, but we felt that would be more detrimental.

What do you mean with old version of MAPEU ?
Is it AFSMAPEUR.AFM or AFSMAPEUR_V15_TV ?
What is the difference ?
