Hi Folks,

I am having a difficulty figuring out how ti get two FDS CDU's operating from one PC using ProSim737 Version 2.19.

No problem getting one CDU (Capt side) working fine, but cannot figure how to get the second one setup and autostarting.

I see there is a section in the FDS CDU manual, but i dont understand what it is suggesting to do in this situation.

I have created two instances of the Prosim737 CDU module on the PC, as i would for other displays, and have configured one as a capt CDU and the other as the F/O CDU.

What appears to happen is that they both do startup, but the two screens overlay on the capt CDU i think.

Any help most welcome.

All fixed now.

For reference, the difficulty was that i was using RDP to connect to the PC in question and this messes with windows screen recognition and formatting (It closes the native session / screens and opens another Windows session around the screen from which you are remotely connecting). In order to manage this PC (and any others which are only driving similar displays with no main screen), we need to use VNC or Teamviewer which does not interfere with WIndows screen layout and management.
