    About this addon

    NEWS: FERGO VIRTUAL CDU FOR THE 777 IS NOW RELEASED! OWNERS OF THE 737 CDU PURCHASED ON FLIGHTSIM.TO ARE ELIGIBLE FOR A DISCOUNTED PRICE. YOU CAN SEE MORE ABOUT THE 777 CDU ON THE LINK BELOW:

    https://flightsim.to/product/fergo-virtual-cdu-pmdg-777


    Description:

    Fergo Virtual CDU is a virtual Control Display Unit for MSFS' PMDG 737 aircraft series (737-900, 737-800, 737-700 and 737-600). It allows you to remote control the plane's Flight Management Computer (FMC) externally with soft-buttons and a 1:1 representation of the display in real time. Accessible through your regular web-browser, you can use it in a second monitor or any other device connected to your home network, such as a phone or tablet. 

    As of version 1.0.8442, it also supports both the Captain's and First Officer's sides. You can alternate between them (even during flight) by clicking the "Fergo Virtual CDU" text at the top of the CDU panel. It's also possible to use both sides at the same time if you have two devices or two browser connected to the same server 

    Main Features:

    Web based client
    The CDU interface is a web app that uses your regular browser, such as Firefox or Chrome. That means you can use it in your computer, phone, tablet or any other device connected to your home network and capable of web browsing.

    Easy to use
    Simply launch the server, navigate to the CDU interface with your browser and you are good to go. The software automatically connects to the game and sets up the client-server communication.

    Non-intrusive
    Fergo Virtual CDU is a standalone and portable software that requires no installation. Simply extract the contents of the compressed archive into a folder of choice.

    Automatic configuration
    FCDU will automatically configure the PMDG settings for data broadcast and add the required firewall rules for the client.

    Off-line activation
    User experience shouldn't be affected by clumsy on-line DRM. Fergo Virtual CDU uses a simple and off-line activation system.

    Customizable
    As the client is web based, you can customize images, fonts and colors by simply editing the HTML and CSS files (some web development knowledge recommended).

    Multiple CDU support
    Swap between captain side or first officer side with a simple touch to the top of the CDU, where it says "Fergo Virtual CDU". It's also possible to use both sides at the same time if you have two devices connected.

    2) When updating Fergo Virtual CDU, please always do a fresh install (entirely delete the contents of the old folder and extract the newly downloded archive).

    Great product that works great on old iPad and Safari browser. I have been waiting for a product like this one for MSFS2020 for a longer time. I'm glad to I have the bundle, and I hope that FMCs for TFDI MD-11 and Maddog MD80 will be published soon . I recommend adding sound to the button clicks and the ability to switch between FMC1 and FMC2 . Check WebFMC for XP11/12 by Green Arc Studios, they have a neat solution for switching between FMC units. It would be a great help to use this app for both FMCs! Keep the great work, you are on the right track!

    Fergoalmost 2 years ago

    Hi! You can already switch between FMCs by touching on the top side where it says "Fergo Virtual CDU" ;)

    Great Product that increases the immersion while flying the 737 while also speeding up the process of using the FMC/CDU. My only issue is I cant type some airport codes/waypoints with double letters quickly due to my device's web browser recognising this as an input to zoom in. Otherwise a great product and worth buying.

    It's a great little app when it works, however I frequently have "buttons" on the CDU that just don't work. It's totally random when buttons don't work and also the buttons themselves that don't work are totally random. For me it was a waste of money, as I constantly have to go into the sim to type stuff in to the CDU when the app doesn't work. I wish it just worked and I'd give it 5 stars, but sadly that's not the case.

    I have noticed at times (rarely) that the AP crashes. I am using it with the PMDG 737-900. I didn't realize the product does not list the 900 variant. Perhaps that is what causes the issue. Maybe that is the reason for the crashes, but most of the time, it works fine with the 900. Perhaps an update is in the future.

    Fergoover 2 years ago

    It should work fine with the 900 variant. When you experienced that crash, was there an error message attached?

    PatriotSixover 2 years ago

    Thanks for responding. There was a lot of information when the error message came up. I should have screenshot it, but it was gibberish to me. I do not remember all I saw, but I could see Fergo listed each time it crashed. It could mean nothing. I am having second thoughts now, though. I think the crashes were because I was on DX12. For some reason, DX-12 causes crashes. I am back on DX-11 and have not seen an issue in days. If something changes, I will reach out. Thanks again.

    Works MUCH better than the demonstration video on this page suggests. I have a pretty bare bones low end android tablet and when I first watched the video demonstrating this product I was really concerned about the latency from the persons input to when it appeared to click in the simulator, however it's been my experience using this that it's as I push it real time use. This CDU app does exactly what you want it to do, let you use the CDU of the PMDG 737's because PMDG can't seem to do what a freeware developer has been doing with both CDU's / EFB's and more -_- Luckily there is this app to save the day. Thanks Fergo Simworks!

    Fergoabout 3 years ago

    Como mencionei no email, o lado do cliente é uma página web padrão, e da mesma forma que uma página web não possui controle de brilho específico, o cliente do CDU também não. O brilho padrão pode ser visto no vídeo de demonstração e nas fotos aqui na página, onde nota-se que o painel é bem visível. Infelizmente não algo que eu possa modificar, pois brilho o é dependente da tela do dispositivo.

    Fergoabout 3 years ago

    You are probably connecting with HTTPS instead of HTTP or your browser's tablet is configure to only accept HTTPS connection. That's not an issue on the FCDU side of things.

    Fergoover 3 years ago

    Hi Arjen, This is probably due to the browser caching the old version of the CDU, so you end up using a new server but an old client. A force refresh of the browser the CDU is running on should fix the issue.

    After many hours of use, only one thing should be changed: CDU should work faster. I have a new iPad which is super fast, and I have amazing internet at home, which is also super fast. (Before the producer will ask about my internet and my iPad, etc) So, you should do something, that will make it all a bit faster. Cause once I choose some number on the CDU keyboard or whatever option, it takes 2-3sec till something happens.

    This CDU is awesome. Really adds to the immersion of flying, and quicker when I use it on my iPad. One issue I found though...if you are seeing question mark icons instead of certain symbols, then you probably have this setting on and it needs to be disabled: Control Panel > Region > Administrative tab > Change system locale button. Then uncheck Beta: Use Unicode UTF-8 for worldwide language support.

    Fergoalmost 4 years ago

    Hi! Thanks for the comment. It might be too old. The oldest Android version I tested was 4.4.2 (it more or less worked on that version, depending on which browser I was using). The minimum version of Android where FCDU is officially supported is 9 though. From some info I've gathered while searching the web, you might be able to update do a newer Android version on you HP Slate 7 using third party solutions (seems like HP dropped support for it after 4.1.1).
