***ATTENTION:
For the regular operation of some features of logitech radios, it is necessary to wait for the FENIX update, such as the synchronization of the Multi Panel and Radio Panel leds with the aircraft. However, the command buttons are working perfectly. Over time I will implement these functions, as updates from Fenix.
For now there is no possibility to synchronize the displays of the logitech panels with the cockpit. Fenix did not produce the codes for home cockpit support due to the license with ProSim. We have to wait for future updates. For now we will use the panels in the same way as Honeycomb Bravo, only with manual actions, without visuals.

Hi,
Can I use this profile for just the multi panel without the need to use the tca? The bindings I have for my tca work fine as they are that’s all
CMTE_CAVOK author
Yes, as long as you disable the TCA function on the spad.
I already addressed this question in the description.

Great work! Is there a way to dissable the woman speking, callin out the different modes as you switching to select different modes?
CMTE_CAVOK author
Yes there is.
But I abandoned the project because I didn't have time to program.
It took a lot of time and I had no financial return.

Great Profile! But i would consider to change to COM digit system. it takes far too long to turn in frequencies.
For Example:
now its: XX.XXX
better would be: XXX.XX
i hope you understand what i mean
CMTE_CAVOK author
Thanks for the feedback! I haven't used the SIM for a few months, but I will implement your suggestion in the next update.

Hi,
Thanks for sharing this profile it is really well done.
I installed it and everything works except for the Multi Panel which does not display the same value as in the sim.
Example when I select Altitude 35000ft in the sim, the multi panel displays 0.
Do you know how I could solve this problem?
Thanks in advance

hello,
i can not make it work, when i load your profile and turn on switches with the switch panel, it activates multiples light in the same time.
Anyone can help please?
CMTE_CAVOK author
I didn't have time to turn on the SIM after the last Fenix update.
Until the last version of Fenix everything was 100% functional.

Estou a tentar por a funcionar o Transponer pelo radio painel do saitek mas nao estou a conseguir interagir com o A320 da Fenix , sabes me dizer se tens a soluçao obrigado
CMTE_CAVOK author
Conforme explicado no post, por questões de contrato de exclusividade entre a Fenix e a PROSIM(desenvolvedora do cockpit da aeronave da Fenix), não é possível sincronizar informações dos displays com hardware externo.

You can make the transponder work - you need to use variables for buttons on the ATC panel. DME can work as well as almost every LED on multi panel
CMTE_CAVOK author
I managed to make it work in FBW. But there are limitations of Fênix arising from the license agreement with PROSIM.

Any way to map the APU MASTER SWITCH on a different hardware?
CMTE_CAVOK author
Through Spadnext it is possible to map anything on any hardware.

trying to use this to get my logitech multipanel (AP) working with the fenix a320 - new to spadnext so got some questions:
1)will this mod show the speed or hdg in the multipanel?
2)so far have the alpha version of spadnext and managed to get some fenix profiles working in MSFS (I got them from the online snippet section of spadnext and then select "replace all online events" when propted and they work) - but when I put this profile in the spadnext profile folder and then try to "activate" it can - not get it working in MSFS? (nothing happens in sim) - just wonder if I am doing something wrong? (note I don't get the "replace all events" prompt when I try to activate the profile) any help appreciated....

Switched to Alpha. So far I've gotten the radio panel (except Squawk) and the AP button to work on the Multipanel. Pretty excited just for that. Keep up the great work! Donating.
CMTE_CAVOK author
Thank you so much for the donation, friend. Programming these pins is a lot of work. There are many late nights waking up doing tests and more rests until a satisfactory final result. Your donation encourages me to keep implementing improvement updates. Mn working on the radios for the GA aircraft: Cessna 152 Cessna 172 Cessna Citation CJ4 Piper Arrow PA28R among others...
