pmGetweather
• pmGetWeather replaces WhazzUp for the weather bitmap generation
• it is easy to use, you essentially run it on any computer in the network which has internet access
Glass Cockpit weather
• if there is no "weather" in the area you are in, then nothing will be displayed in the ND
• if the WXR text in the ND is barely readable (i.e. grey), that means that either no weather file has
been found or that it isn't valid for the area, i.e. the communication to WhazzUp isn't working
• What you see is a processed infrared sat image, i.e. the lighter the colour, the cooler the weather
system is. Grey would be your run of the mill overcast, blue slightly cooler systems at lower
altitudes going all the way to red which would be tall and very cold clouds, possibly thunderstorms.
Weather All other programs
• yes, the WXR button in the MCPs will activate the weather in the Glass Cockpit
• yes, the CDU/MCDU will allow to set it as well
• yes, an option to display METAR reports has been added to the FMCs

Back-Up
Reasons for backing up
It is important to back up all important files in relation to your simulator or Project Magenta software.
There are certain user files within the program folders that are (or become) user specific, meaning you are
entering information into them that is specific to your system, as such it is highly advisable to develop a
methodical system of back-up for these files.
Typical User files that should be backed up: pfd.ini, cdu.ini, mcp.ini and all files where you have entered
specific information – usually with the file ending .ini or .txt, for example in pmSystems you might have file
like: phidget.txt and flightillusion.txt these txt files hold specific information regarding your set-up, if lost
then you will have to re-define those entries which might lead to simulator / FTD downtime.
Because of the way Windows works, it is possible for some files to be held in the disk cache and if a system
failure happens or a shutdown of a computer whilst a program is still not fully closed then it is also possible
(even though very unlikely) for windows to drop a file from your system. This can cause particular
problems if it happens especially in relation to the main program ini files which hold not only user entered
information but also specific information about your install.
For this reason we advise two key things that should help to prevent problems:
• You can disable the disk cache in the device manager, HD properties, policies tab, this will help
prevent files being lost in the cache.
• On regular intervals, copy the contents of your (for example mcp.ini file) into the special BNI file
which resides in your main program folder.
o To do this open your (for example mcp.ini) file with the windows notepad editor
o Copy the contents of the file
o Open the mcp.bni file again with the windows notepad editor (you may have to select it as
the program of choice to edit/open this file)
o Past in the information that you copied from the original mcp.ini file.
o Close and save the mcp.bni file
• Now the information is saved as a back-up in the BNI file. If for whatever reason your system
should drop or delete the main program ini file then the MCP program will automatically search for
the BNI file and create a new main program ini file using the back-up information in the BNI file.
The reason why the BNI file is a useful tool is that it will help to avoid an interruption of your software
usage if the ini file is for some reason lost. You need to remember to perform the above process regularly
especially if you are making changes to the ini files on a regular basis and making program updates.

Navdata Updates
Navdata is available for update from the website usually on monthly cycles. Please see the website for
specific details of how to update and how to obtain new data.
http://www.projectmagenta.com/downloads/navdata.html
The navdata “latest” updates are not free of charge, you will be directed to the company providing the
source and you need to follow their instructions to download them.
Generally, once you have downloaded the new data you have to unzip/install the file contents of that data
into the main program folders of either the CDU or GC. Once that is done, start the respective programs,
and the program itself will sort the new navdata and put the files in the correct folders.
Note that when the CDU / MCDU starts, you need to navigate to the IDENT page and select the new nav
data using the LSK keys. You will see the current cycle indicated, and either the new one or previous cycle
