Software update Vx16.10.25-TOUCH-MV16

Uploaded new software yesterday and noticed adjusting screen brightness (DIM) on PFD no longer applies to MFD. Is there an option for synchronizing brightness levels for both screens?

Did you update the software on both EFIS displays or just one? Is your ethernet cable plugged in and ethernet connection working? Easiest way to check the network is to adjust the baro bug and see that it syncs on the other screen.


Also FYI Vx16.10.31-TOUCH-MV16 software went public this morning

Hi Jonathon,

Thanks for the pointer to the new version. The update instructions mention that the ARINC Out speed from the GPS Navigator needs to be changed. Is this specific to this update (16.10.31) or is it a general one for v16?

What is reason behind making this ARINC change and what is the impact (from a user perspective)?

Thanks,

Vas

The speed change wasn?t until one of the 16.10.* releases. I don?t recall the exact release, but the readme file will document the change.

Think about if your Internet connection went from 50mb to 100mb. The same is true for arinc. Better performance and data throughput.
