RE: Enabling Profile Helios Profile from BMS 4.35 into 4.36
Hin Todd,
As it turns out, my version doesn’t have a gear to click on in the upper right corner. Instead, there is a very inconspicuous “I I” bracket type thing.So I clicked on the bracket, changed the bms version to 4.37 and need to set the key file. I have been using BMS Full .Key with my CH equipment. Is that correct or is the Auto key file needed?
Thanks

RE: Enabling Profile Helios Profile from BMS 4.35 into 4.36
@Atlas Well It’s that time again, with a new version of BMS. I have forgotten what I had to do to point Helios to my 4.37 install instead of 4.36. I remember I couldn’t figure out the process when it was time to update from 4.35 to 4.36.
It was something very simple. I had to right or left click somewhere in the Helios configurator and just change the interface from 4.35 to 4.36. It was not listed in an easily visible menu anywhere. There should be a menu Item like “Update Interface” or something.
Anyway can somebody direct me on this? -
RE: Helios not working with BMS update 4.36.1
@Lurch16
I happened to install BMS update 2 and everything worked immediately. Case Closed. -
RE: Helios not working with BMS update 4.36.1
@linknet Well, Before the crash it was the keyfile in 4.36. After I did the reinstall of BMS, I immediately updated to 4.36.1 U1. So The only keyfile, would be what’s there after the update. I’ll try re-assigning it.

Helios not working with BMS update 4.36.1
Hello All,
Recently , I had a power interruption, with one thing leading to another. The end result was I had to uninstall / reinstall BMS 4.36 and added update 4.36.1.I enabled the RTT client. When I try to run my profile Helios gives numerous errors about all of the call-backs that can’t be found. Does anyone have any tips on how to fix this?
Thanks,

RE: Enabling Profile Helios Profile from BMS 4.35 into 4.36
Thanks for replying guys.
I updated Helios to the Latest version although i’m not sure of the exact number at this moment. I started my own profile, but did it by copy/paste of items in Ices profile from a year ago.I’ll check out the things that you mentioned and get back.

Enabling Profile Helios Profile from BMS 4.35 into 4.36
Hello folks,
Since the new upgrade of BMS 4.36, my Helios profile, no longer works.I upgraded to the latest Helios version
Changed the Interface to 4.36
and got the message about Re-enabling the RTT Client.
In my Configurator, the place to Re-enable RTT is nowhere to be found.
I watched a video on how to enable RTT in Helios and the screen to do that simply is not there on my configurator.
Will I have to start all over and make a new profile, or is the a menu somewhere, that I am missing?
Thanks,

RE: How To split apart two panels in Helios
Hi Jolly,
All of my guages are on a separate monitor, but when I added the MFDs, they both came surrounded by the green editing box. I tried the various icons in the “Layers” section but still can’t get them to have their own editing box. i must be missing something obvios.

How To split apart two panels in Helios
Does anyone know how to split apart two panels that are locked together?
I copied Ice’s MFDs panel but they are locked together and I can’t figure out how to separate them so they can be moved or resized individually.

RE: Setting up Helios in Falcon BMS Without Touch Screen
Yep, I saw all of the tutorials, all very good, but they seemed like they were for adding buttons, switches, etc… Since none of my monitors are touch screen, I don’t want any buttons or switches. I just want to add some guages from the toolbox and resize them to what I want. The first thing I did was add the Falcon Interface to my new empty profile and added a couple guages, but they didn’t work.
My sole question is, is there another step to make the guages work? I couldn’t find a word about it anywhere.
I was able to separate out the bezels from Ice’s guages and resize them, but spent hours trying to get the HSI resized, so I would rather just add a new one from the toolbox and be done with it.

RE: Setting up Helios in Falcon BMS Without Touch Screen
Ok, since I’m not using a touch screen, I’ll continue with this thread here instead of using one in the “Touch Screen Section”, even though it involves Helios.
Can anyone point me towards a video/tutorial that shows how to add (1) guage to a Falcon BMS Profile and make it work correctly? Right now it’s the basic HSI, but the principle should be the same.
Doing the copy/paste routine using someone else’s profile works great most of the time, but for someone new to Helios, some guages are too complex to make them adjustable and usable. I’m guessing that nobody ever thought of using Helios in a Non-touch screen situation, but for someone who does not have touch screens, Helios is also a perfect solution for displaying guages. Any direction on this is appreciated.

RE: Does anyone have a simple Helios profile for BMS?
That what I thought, but there doesn’t seem to be a way to separate the bezel from the guage.

RE: MFD Extractor in 4.35.2 makes some guages flicker
Ok, so I installed Helios, copied a few guages from Ice’s profile to replace the bad ones in MFDE and they work fine. The only problem I ran in to was some of the guages have a bezel or border around them and can’t be resized. Otherwise, success. Never could get some of those MFDE guages to work right but at least this was a work around.

RE: Setting up Helios in Falcon BMS Without Touch Screen
I need a small profile, simple with just a few guages. I downloaded Ice’s but it is so huge, it’s unusable for me. I made a post in the joystick\touchscreen section

Does anyone have a simple Helios profile for BMS?
Hello Folks,
I’m trying to build a minimal Helios profile, with just a few guages and no switching? I don’t have any touch screens and just want the use of the guages along with the RTT for my MFD’s.
I downloaded Ices’ which is so massive, it’s unusable for me to pull a couple guages from. I need a small profile, to get the guages copied.OR
a tutorial that shows how to make a profile from scratch For the F-16 Only.
I have my guages placed, but they don’t work.

RE: Setting up Helios in Falcon BMS Without Touch Screen
Ah yes,
I think I know what to do with the profiles. I report back later.
Thanks much. -
RE: MFD Extractor in 4.35.2 makes some guages flicker
Ok, just an update.
I uninstalled the new MFDE and went back to a version with an installer from 2012 and it at least brings back all of my guages, including the ones that flicker. So, i will cut the bad guages out and use helios to replace them. So that will be my solution for this. Supposedly it is possible. BTW my video driver was 3 years old but that had no effect. I’ll report back when everything is set up.
