I installed the RFN gauge (only to Dino's C2/E2 so far). But am having a problem with it, as I am not able to adjust TACAN channel from X to Y. Am able to place cursor over "Sel 2" and "Sel 3", and use my mouse wheel to change numbers, but my mouse wheel in "Sel 1" has no effect. It stays on X, period.

Any help with this? Thanks, NC

Did you try using the Tuning knob to change the X<->Y setting? Click on SEL1, then use your mouse either ON the tuning knob, IE click one side or the other, or using your mouse wheel over the Tuning knob.
I don't KNOW this will work, but hey, worth a try, no?

4-4) Malfunction and interference

The double arrow of the NG box may, in some cases, not work. This situation is often the result of the default flight. It is possible to correct by opening the configuration file. For FSX-Acc, FSX-SE, open with Notepad ++ the .flt file of the recorded flight located in \ Documents \ Flight Simulator X Files.
Find the [Avionics.0] section.
If the value of AvionicsSwitch = False change it to AvionicsSwitch = True.
For P3D the .fxml file of the recorded flight is in \ Documents \ Prepar3Dvx Files.
Make a Backup of original files.
...

Please, let we know the result.

The double arrow works. What does NOT work is changing the X & Y. It stays on X. Numbers will change with mouse wheel, when cursor is over the Tuning knob. But has zero effect on the X/Y. NC

OK I understand now. Sorry for my previous answer.
Have you SODE installed?
If yes, can you try with it deseabled?
SODEPlatformmanager.exe temporarily disables SODE.

But first, is this problem for all aircrafts or only E2C?
If the problem is only for this aircraft :
Is the problem for C2Greyhound or E2Hawkeye (with panel.e2 in the C2Greyhound) or for the both aircrafts?

I changed the gauge to the "old" gauge style, and am able to change the X/Y. Go figure. NC
