Checklist Help
Posted: Wed Apr 19, 2017 11:34 am
I've been using the checklist feature for years. Yesterday I tried to import a revised checklist without success.
On the checklist page I select IMPORT and the EFIS says reading USB drive. I see the light on the drive flashing. As I recall, the EFIS says reading CHECKLIST.TXT and then after some time, the EFIS says Can't find CHECKLIST.TXT. The checklist I'm trying to load is a copy of the one in the EFIS with a few changes. It is a .txt file. I store it on my computer with a different name, copy that to the stick and rename it there to CHECKLIST.TXT. The memory stick is OK, I used it to load new NAV.DB a day ago.
Is there a space limitation on checklist files? I have the file with the extension .TXT in the name. Should I just use CHECKLIST without the extension (that is how the NAV file works)?
Thanks for any suggestions.
