Many thanks

Hello Richard,
Sure, please use these links for the base Aviation Trainer Launcher, then the GTNXi PC Trainer component V20.42:
https://download.garmin.com/avtrainerfull/3.10.3.0/GarminTrainerSetup_31030.zip
https://download.garmin.com/avtrainerfull/trainers/gtn_xi/GTN%20Xi_20_42_2_OfflineInstaller.exe
Please let us know how it goes and if there are issues, please post screenshots.

Thank you so much Everything is installed per your guide.
However I am having an issue with connecting with the ILS on the final part of the approach.
I am using blacksquare baron and also flysimware C414. In both cases the active to final is activated and the hsi shows the ils course and GS needle but both aircraft do not catch the localiser or GS
I also use the PMS GTN 750 and that just works fine! Any suggestions

Hello Richard,
Is the TDS GTNXI in VLCO or GPS mode?
Did you set the correct HSI course?
When the GTNXI is in VLOC mode, it is the MSFS autopilot which handles the navigation, so it is not us. Can you please post some screenshots?
