TDS GTNXi Pro supports MSFS 2024!
#21
It's the former. Totally black.
I have the dim screen with the PMS GTN750 (but not all the aircraft - just the Carenado Piper PA28-181 Archer).

Because of other issues with MSFS2024, I am going back to MSFS2020 until MS/ASOBO get these bugs worked out. Too many other issues with the planes I fly the most.

With all MSFS versions closed, please start the TDS GTNXi from the desktop shortcut, then click on the GTN750Xi button, does the screen light up?

Yes, it did.

I have since removed MSFS2024 completely and reinstalled MSFS2020. Now, I am getting the same thing in 2020 aircraft: completely black screen. I have uninstalled the trainers, made sure I am using the latest manager, etc. Running TDS GTNXi Flight Sim program (ver 1.2.0.1), I can see an operational GTN750Xi as well as GTN650Xi. Both appear fine.
With the sim open (MSFS2020) the program says "TDS GTNXi in Gauge Mode (which I assume is normal witht he sim running).
I have the Pro Upgrade.
I installed the Trainers in the default location at C:\Program Files (x86)\Garmin\Trainers and C:\ProgramData\Garmin\Trainers

Not sure what else to do to get this working. Everything was fine until I installed MSFS2024.

Hello,

Please send us an email making reference to this post, along with these log files:

Let's try to get some log files after a failed MSFS 2020 session:
From My documents please provide us with:
TDSGTNXiExeLog.txt
TDSGTNXi750Unit1Log.txt
Then from the MSFS 2020 LocalState folder:
C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\packages\tds-gtnxi-gauge\work
Where %username% is your username, please provide us with this log file:

It's an awesome product I have used for a while with no problems but I can't update from 1.1.0.7 to 1.2.0.1.

I keep getting the following error:

I have uninstalled and reinstalled many times but always get the same thing Sad

Thanks,

I have had similar issue in the past. However, running the TDSGPS Manager in Admin mode always worked for me. You might try that if not already running in Admin mode.

I still have the issue of a black screen and hoping MS/ASOBO fix that soon.

Do you have the issue of black screens, as in the TDS GTNXi not functioning at all, or the dark screen issue of MSFS 2024 where the screens are very dim, but they function?

Completely black for me.  Have tried running it as admin but no joy :-(

Hello,

Please start the TDS GTNXi from the desktop shortcut with MSFS closed, then click on the GTN750XI button.
Does the screen light up?

If it does, not then please email us at: support@tdssim.com

From My Documents\TDSGTNXiExeLog.txt
As well as the antivirus software used.

Thank you.

My issue of the black screen was solved completley with help from TDS. I am running Norton antivirus which was blocking. So, I excluded the entire folder: C:\ProgramData\Garmin\Trainers\GTI\Production\GTI__GTN_Xi__20_42\app-20.42.2\bin\* from Norton. Now I'm back in business!

Thank you for working with us and for sharing the solution, we are glad to hear that the TDS GTNXi Pro is functioning well. Please enjoy the TDS GTNXi Pro!

I have the same issue with 2024, I own the pro upgrade, and use it extensively in 2020, everything works there. With 2024 there's been so many problems with what's there, plus so many products that are not ported at all, that I don't use it much. However I just bought the Lear 35A, since I could I installed it in both. No problem in 2020, but in 2024 after powering on the avionics, the 750 just seems to be dead, never occurred to me that the screen might just be black??

Do you have any other suggestions of core planes that I can test? None of the Black Square are available yet Sad

Hello Jack,

Can you please check the MSFS 2024 content manager / My Files Library for the TDS GTNXi Pro VC Gauge integration to be enabled?
