Re: g1000 attitude indicator replacement

I've seen Garmin's new GI-275 advertised, is this an option too? It looks like it would be a great option.

Re: Nav data update for G1000 simulator

I was able to guess at it and was right. The fc_tpc file on the SD card gets copied to the above mentioned folder, winfs_mount folder. The approach charts are contained in the fc_tpc folder. The mistake I was making, was how I arrived at the correct folder location. You have to go through the file e...

Re: Nav data update for G1000 simulator

I finally got around to reinstalling the software, then copied the above mentioned files. Everything seems to work, but no Flitecharts? I have the subscription, but which files do I need and where do they get copied to?

Re: Nav data update for G1000 simulator

Ok, so I was able to unhide the files and uploaded them into the winfs_mount folder. The dual trainer opens, but I get this error message on the PFD and the Navigation file isn't updated on the MFD. Any ideas???

Re: Nav data update for G1000 simulator

Ok, guess I'm dumber than I thought. When I downloaded the latest Garmin database files, the only thing I see on the SD card is fc_tcp ldr_sys .evidf.dat I checked on the box to show hidden files, but this is all I saw.

Re: Nav data update for G1000 simulator

Thank you for the version 12 update. For me, that was the easy part. Now, how do I get the latest databases into the program? I'm running Windows 10 pro, but have the compatibility mode set to Windows 7 per Garmin's suggestion.

Re: Nav data update for G1000 simulator

I spoke with a Garmin rep about upgrading to the Version 12.00 software. He said it was sold out and discontinued. Does anyone have a disc they would part with?

Re: Nav data update for G1000 simulator

is there any way to update the software version from V9.13 to V12.00 or do you need to buy the newer version? My computer is Windows 10 Pro.
