Awesome, Iā€™m really glad itā€™s working for you!
As for me, I just received my PFP 3N yesterday and finally unboxed it today.

I havenā€™t been this excited about opening a package since I pulled my RTX 4090 out of the box ā€¦ I felt like a kid in a toy store all over again :rofl:

I just checked it out and itā€™s working without any issues on the PMDG 737-700.

Hi TenPatrol,

My Winwing CDU works great with PMDG 737-600/ store purchase MSFS2020. But in MSFS2024, the CDU screen is blank but communicates with the sim alright. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

Hi, please note that the PMDG 737-600 is not yet fully compatible with MSFS 2024 - itā€™s still primarily designed for MSFS 2020. I recommend keeping an eye on official updates from PMDG regarding full MSFS 2024 compatibility.

Additionally, it seems that four important lines might be missing from the 737_Options.ini file. You can find this file here:

%localappdata%\Packages\Microsoft.Limitless_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\WASM\MSFS2020\pmdg-aircraft-736\work\

Open the file with a text editor like Windows Notepad, scroll to the very bottom and add the following four lines:

[SDK]
EnableDataBroadcast=1
EnableCDUBroadcast.0=1
EnableCDUBroadcast.1=1

Save the changes, then launch Simapp Pro and MSFS 2024. This should allow the FMC display to work correctly.

Thank you. I do have the 4 lines in the 737_options.ini file. Looking forward to a PMDG update for 2024. In the meanwhile will enjoy Winwing in 2020 :slight_smile:

Additionally, please make sure that you set the correct folders for MSFS 2024 in Simapp Pro settings. Also in the community folder for MSFS 2024, there should be a folder named winwing-wwtwasm.

Hello, Iā€™m a lucky owner of a PAP3 and a PFP3N, and they are fine in MSFS2020. Before seeing this topic, Iā€™ve tried unfortunately in MSFS20234 to make them lighted on, but I didnā€™t manage. Iā€™ve contacted Winwing staff, they told me there wasnā€™t solution to these issues.
So, Iā€™ve found your topic, and Iā€™ve tried it : youā€™ve saved me man !!! :winking_face_with_tongue:
I have added in the ini file the 3 lines you had mentioned and then, Iā€™ve seen my PFP3N back to life in MSFS2024ā€¦

BUT !! :sweat_smile:

My PAP3 stayed black :downcast_face_with_sweat:
So, Iā€™ve made many tests to find a solution for that problem. Iā€™ve tried to 'restore default configuration" of my PAP3 :YESSSSS !!! it was lght on !!! :heart_eyes:ā€¦ But now, my PFP was Light off :downcast_face_with_sweat:
So, Iā€™ve tried to "restore default configuration of the PFP3Nā€¦ He has startedā€¦ and my PAP died : this problem made me mad :exploding_head:

Iā€™ve spent more than an hour, changing USB ports, resart MSFSā€¦ But I finally found a procedure to make both light on !!

Here is how I proceed (I hope that it will be OK for you all too !!)

1 : After start MSFS2024, SimAppPro and go in cockpit, I put on electric system, and I check my PFP3N display is on
2 : I "restore default configuration of PAP3 device (PFP display becomes black, and PAP3 ON)
3 : I close SimAppPro, and restart it
And now, the two devices are OK

I hope it will be same for you. Good luck

Iā€™m really glad to hear that you managed to get both devices working.
Sounds like quite the adventure, but you did it - well done mate. Thanks a lot for sharing the detailed steps too, Iā€™m sure it will help others facing the same issue.
Enjoy flying and happy to hear my post was useful.
