WARNING: It was informed by the developer of Spad (c0nnex), upgrading from MSFS PMDG Update 3.0.24 for the 737-100 intentionally breaks the SDK integration. As there is no information about the new SDK, it is currently not recommended to apply the update, if you are using any of the SDK-Features (PMDGNG3-Events or PMDGNG3-Data). There is no workaround , and there is nothing you or spad can do about that.
This is a preset to be used in Logitech/Saitek panels (Multi Panel, Switch Panel and Radio Panel), through the SPAD.neXt software. The entire configuration was made to be used, preferably, in the B737-700 of PMDG .
Installation:
Place the file " PMDG 737 - Logitech Panels (current version) " in the SPAD.neXt profile folder.
Default location: C:\Users\[seu nome]\Documents\SPAD.neXt\profiles
ATTENTION: Here's how to get the complete material of the PMDG 737 MSFS running on SPAD.neXt:
```
1. 737 in MSFS must have been loaded beyond "ready to fly" at least once and exited again.
2. Exit MSFS
3. in file browser open
Store/Gamepass Version
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\packages\pmdg-aircraft-737\work
Steam Version
%APPDATA%\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Packages\pmdg-aircraft-737\work
5. Add to end of 737_Options.ini
[SDK]
EnableDataBroadcast=1
EnableCDUBroadcast.0=1
EnableCDUBroadcast.1=1
6. start MSFS and load 737 ,start flight
7. start SPAD.neXt
8. Make sure in SPAD.neXt
Settings->Application->FSX (SPAD.neXt 0.9.12 Alpha)
Settings->Application->Simulations (SPAD.neXt 0.9.11.5)
PMDG Support is enabled. (If it was not, enable it and restart SPAD.neXt)
9. Always 3 green!
- All Data in "PMDG 737 NGXu" should be working
- All Simulation Events in "PMDG 737 NGXu" should be working.
- Cockpitmaster CDU should be working right away
P3D PMDG 737 NGXu SPAD.neXt Profiles should be working. (Not fully tested yet)
Please remember PMDG Simulation Events work exactly like the cockpit. Use the "PMDG Special Actions" to do with the event what you would do in cockpit with the mouse!
```
Feel free to suggest improvements and fixes!

Hi,
Sadly I can not get it to work even after completing the steps in the description. I go onto msfs and the panel does not react When I go onto SPAD the profile is there when I click onto the panel on the SPAD software and click all locations it tells me there are no events on any of the buttons or switches 😞

If the event lines appear red, you probably haven't activated PMDG.
See the second screenshot I uploaded.
Hope it works.

Everything works perfect with latest version.
Once again, thanks a lot.

Thanks for the positive feedback. I am happy to contribute to a better use of the panels and, consequently, a better experience in SIM.

Thanks a lot for the feedback! I'm glad it worked. In the next few days I will update some features and fix bugs. One of the features I'm already testing is the following: In SwitchPanel's TRIM notation I configured to control the brightness of the contour lights of the buttons on the overhead, pedestal, MCP, etc... Stay tuned it will soon be available for download.
If you can rate my work with stars I will be grateful!

Hey Man everything works great with my radio panel but I can't get my multi panel screen to turn on. The screen is blank. My radio panel is working with the 737 as it should from your profile. Any idea about my multi panel? Thank You!

I'm glad to hear it worked for you! about the bug where the panels do not ascend sometimes happens to me too. The solution I found was: - configure the power confirm described in screenshot 4; - after starting FS2020, with the aircraft on the ground, close spadnext and open again. this will solve.

It's not beta, but alpha. It's in the Spadnext settings that you change.
Settings -> General Applications -> Expert -> Update Channel "ALPHA"

I downloaded the file and transferred it to the profiles folder, I selected the profile and no command appears on any device.
It asks if you want to install the default.
