Hi  ,
I am in process of installing/configuring thermal printer WH-E19 but unfortunately with not much success. I intend to use this printer with PMDG 737/777 aircraft (MSFS 2024).

What I did:
1. I connected printer to 12V 4 A PSU which appears to be OK; no smoke visible or strange smell .
2. I Connected USB port to one of the powered USB-3 HUB-s. I did hear familiar sound once device is connected to windows computer (Windows 11).
3. In the windows Device Overview I did not see any new printer(s)
4. I installed WH-PosSetupV1.2.3 .exe file which should be the driver-software. After installation I've got a new printer Brightec WH-POS80.
5. My attempt to print a test page (from Windows) resulted in unreadable never-ending printout which I had to interrupt to save thermal paper.

Is there someone who did manage to get above printer correctly working?
Which steps did I miss and have to do for happy ending?

Thanks for your help.
Gr, Mladen

Greetings,

OEM junky here. But the almighty 737NG MCP costs a kidney - and I would prefer to make one myself than buy a commercial replica. Does anyone have measurements of the 737NG Collins MCP dimensions? Off the real thing preferably.

Also if anyone can point me to where I can buy non airworthy scrap off a real unit - I would be more than grateful. 

High res photos of the panel, suggestions, comments, and requests also welcome. I am trying to make this as a mini-project/side job kind of thing - so I ask - what do you not like about replica MCPs, and what do you wish they had? 

Yours sincerely,
Youssef 
Avionix Simulation (if this project ever takes off) 

Good idea — thank you, Jack. I'll contact them.

Hello
Ask Gables directly telling them what you intend to do with it.
They usually accomodate

Dear all,

I'm looking for pin-out descriptions for the following OEM panels, to enable interfacing to a sim:

Gables VOR/DME NAV radio panel, P/N G6229-12
Gables ILS radio panel, P/N G6227-12
Honeywell mode select panel, P/N CG1288AC01
Gables cargo fire/smoke panel, G7189-09

Any information on the connectors of the above would be appreciated.

Alternatively, if anyone has a Boeing 737-3/4/5 and/or Fokker 70/100 wiring diagram manual, this would also be most useful.

Thank you.

James

Prob arrive saturday AM.  However, I might have to fly to IAD for meeting with an Aircraft Manufacturer's MEL Engineering Staff for a day; Fly up the 4th, meeting and back the 5th. I am driving down from Memphis so I won't have to depend on a rental while I am there. 

Hi
The forum was hacked beyond repair.
For serious issues you may also contact FDS support.
Good flights

I'm running Sim-Avionics version 2.74 and am generally happy with it. However, I do miss the Sim-Avionics forum since it was removed from Flightdecksolutions homepage. Does anyone know if there is an alternative forum other than the Sim-Avionics support page on their website?

I did not see your post, so if you still need it, here is some help for a wooden shell.
