747-8 beeping...
« on: September 27, 2018, 04:00:15 am »
Hello again.... still plugging away at this...

Being that there were no 747-8 config available, I created one using the custom door checks (Below) that were used on the 747-400

I have also aligned the cargo the same  as well as deice, water, lavatory and fuel coordinates.

I activate the jetway to entry L Entry 2
The jetway goes right there... and the door for 2 is open.....
However, I keep getting the beeping and by opening and shutting all the doors, the passengers start to load but the beeping continues
Does this have something to do internall with GSX....? based on it not being configured within GSX?
Thank you.

L Entry 1
(L:7X7XCabinDoor1L,number) 90 >=
L Entry 2
(L:7X7XCabinDoor2L,number) 90 >=
L Entry 4
(L:7X7XCabinDoor4L,number) 90 >=
L Entry 5
(L:7X7XCabinDoor5L,number) 90 >=

R Entry 1
(L:7X7XCabinDoor1R,number) 90 >=
R Entry 5
(L:7X7XCabinDoor5R,number) 90 >=

There's nothing internal in GSX, if the airplane is not already included in GSX, everything will be taken by the GSX.CFG configuration file.

Please clarify what do you mean. Beeping with which message ?

First, Thanks for your reply...
I know that the 747-8 is not included yet with GSX.. that is why I made a config copying the data (Custom Door check "L" strings) from the 747-400
The jetways and Cargo vehicles all line up beautifully with the aircraft...
However, whereas in the 747-400 it detects when a jetwayed or stairway door is approached,the 747-8 will eventually load passengers after opening all the exits but will not load cargo.
When opening the GSX menu, it asks me to open exit 2.... which with all open, still keeps beeping for action
Essentially, though all doors are open or just the correct ones the menu still says that exit 2 is not open and thus the beeping.
This also prevents any other commands from activating as the cargo is triggered by passengers and doors I imagine.
I hope this clarifiesmy issue....
The only thing I can think of is that the aircrfat is not internaly configured to GSX from "factory" as the 747-400 is.

When you see a door called by its default name, it's an indication you made the configuration wrong. There's a file in the airplane configuration Sharing section for the 747-8, which is reported to be working.
