I am getting so many e-mails regarding how it all went together and paticularly how i use the PMDG 737, I decided to put together a page to assist other PMDG 'drivers'. This is general, but I will expand when time permits........  Click Here ->    ENGLISH   FRENCH

OK this is the basic setup of the system. I will give a general overview here before going into detail for those of you who want to try this for yourself...........

Computers.......
COMPUTER 1 (called Cockpit) Runs MSFS2004,  the PMDG B737-600/800, WIDEVIEW, FSUIPC, WIDEFS, FSCopilot,  FsXpand, the CPFlight Configuration and Communication Software and Flight Deck Companion.  It has a dual output NVidea PCI-X Graphics Card which gives me my Main View and on the Second Output I have set up a new Window in FS2004 for the re-written Main Panel which gives me the PFD/ND.  This output is sent through a VGA 'Y' cable which gives me the PFD/ND Display on both sides of the Cockpit onto 2 monitors.  
2 x Digimate 19" Monitors & INFOCUS X3 Digital Projector
COMPUTER 2 (called EICAS) Runs  FsClient from www.flyware.nl  for the Centre Display.  This gives me the EICAS engine instruments, Fuel Gauges, the 3 working standby instruments (HSI - AI - ALT), trim indicator, flaps gauge, marker indicators and other supplementary information such as strobes and landing lights on/off, spoiler condition, etc.

An In-Depth explanation will be available on the TECHNICAL INFORMATION page when time permits.

Basic Flight Controls are Input via 2 CH Products Yokes.  

The Captain's is directly connected via a USB 2 port to and configured through FS2004 and the CH Products Control Manager Program.
The F/O's is attached to the Gameport on the CPFlight MCP and is calibrated and configured thru the CPFlight MCP_CONF program. MCP_CONF gives a 2.5% dead zone at centre so the 2nd Yoke does not input commands over the 1st Yoke, yet the aircraft can be flown from both sides of the cockpit.
The Rudder Pedals for both sides are CH Products. These again have been directly connected to the main computer and configured thru FS2004 and the CH Products Control Manager to calibrate Yaw and Braking Functions. I also use a third joystick for ground steering, but I intend to look at a more realistic alternative when time allows.
Automatic Flight is provided by the excellent CPFlight MCP. By using the 737kbd file, it directly commands the PMDG 737 when the Autopilot is engaged.

When coupled to the FMC, the LNAV and VNAV functions come into play Automatically flying the pre-progammed flight right down to the threshold on any commanded runway at any Airport in the Database. And of course by keeping your Arrival/Departure Database upto date at the NavData site, the aircraft will also fly SID's and STAR's too !
