Additional buttons
The six buttons on the left of the Instrument Panel open additional cockpit screens
or displays when flying in FSX. Each button is labelled with the corresponding display
to the right of it. The Map, Main Panel, Radios and GPS buttons will open those
screens or cockpit panels when flying most aircraft. The panel 4 and 5 buttons
will open different screens or panels depending on the aircraft being flown.
Press the button once to open the panel or screen and again to close it (except map
where you must click on OK or press return to close the map screen).
Note: Pressing any of the six buttons when FSX is not loaded will switch the panel display off and on.
You can connect multiple Instrument Panels to your PC to show different cockpit
displays simultaneously. Each panel uses system resources - see Advanced options
below to connect multiple panels with maximum system performance.
Advanced options
If you have more than one PC connected to a LAN you can connect multiple
instrument panels to a secondary PC which will display flight information
from Microsoft FSX running on your primary PC. This can be useful to free up
system resources for FSX.
Definitions
Server = The PC that will be running FSX and the main
Flight controllers attached.
Client = The PC that will be linked to the Server via
the LAN. The instrument panels will be connected
to this PC to alleviate the processing stress of having
multiple screens connected to one PC.
