The "WHEEL WELL FIRE" warning lights, to the right of the "1
2 3 4" fire handles which are the distinguishing characteristic of a
707 cockpit, are actually hot buttons. Click these to switch between

<OL>
<LI>Install a Boeing 707 (This panel does not work
correctly with FS98 AIR files).</LI>
<LI>Unzip the zip files <TT>7072K2PN.ZIP</TT> into a temporary directory</LI>
<LI>Move the contents of Gauges into <TT>FS2002\GAUGES</TT>
as appropriate.</LI>
<LI>Move all other contents of Panel into the<TT> \PANEL</TT>
subdirectory of your Boeing 707 aircraft installation. </LI>
<LI>Add the lines <TT>use_no_default_bank=1</TT> and <TT>use_no_default_pitch=1</TT>
to the <TT>[autopilot] </TT>section of the aircraft's <TT>aircraft.cfg</TT></LI>
<LI>If your <TT>aircraft.cfg</TT> includes a <TT>[Radios]</TT> section,
adjust lines as necessary to <TT>Com.1=1, 0</TT>, <TT>Nav.1=1, 0, 1</TT>
and <TT>Nav.2=1, 0, 0</TT>.</LI>
</OL>
<P>It is recommended that you download the Boeing 707 sound package by
Charles Fox. </P>
<P><FONT FACE="Tahoma" SIZE="6"><I>Troubleshooting</I></FONT></P>
<UL>
<LI><B><FONT COLOR="#ff0000">Problem</FONT>: All engine gauges except
RPM gauges dont work!</B></LI>
<LI><FONT COLOR="#CC9900">Cause</FONT>: You are using an FS98 flight
model. The panel is only for use with true FS2000/2 models.</LI>
<LI><FONT COLOR="#008000">Solution</FONT>: Replace your flight model
with a true FS2000/2 flight model.</LI>
<LI><B><FONT COLOR="#ff0000">Problem</FONT>: Centre Tank Fuel gauge
always indicates zero!</B></LI>
<LI><FONT COLOR="#CC9900">Cause</FONT> : Your flight model only has left
and right fuel tanks fitted.</LI>
<LI><FONT COLOR="#008000">Solution</FONT> : Edit your file in an AIR
file editor such as AIRED, to give the correct fuel tank capacities:</LI>
</UL>
<BLOCKQUOTE><B>LEFT, RIGHT </B>= 434 US gallons <BR><B>LEFT AUX, RIGHT AUX</B> = 6307 US gallons <BR><B>CENTRE</B> = 7722 US gallons</BLOCKQUOTE>
<P>Note the inverted MAIN/AUX fuel capacities - these are the result of a
bug in FS2000, which causes AUX tanks to empty before MAIN tanks. The MAIN
fuel gauges will display the contents of whichever tank is the larger.
They will work correctly on panels with conventional FS fuel tank
capacities, but the emptying sequencing will be wrong.</P>
<UL>
<LI><B><FONT COLOR="#ff0000">Problem</FONT>: Flap Indicator Doesnt
Read Correctly!</B></LI>
<LI><FONT COLOR="#CC9900">Cause</FONT>: Wrong number of flap notches in
flight model.</LI>
<LI><FONT COLOR="#008000">Solution</FONT>: This panel is designed for 6
flap positions <FONT FACE="Symbol">-</FONT> change the <TT><FONT>[Flaps.0]</FONT></TT>
section in the <TT>aircraft.cfg</TT> to the following:</LI>
</UL>
<P><TT>
<MENU>
<LI>[Flaps.0] </LI>

<LI>flaps-position.5=40,0.000000</LI></MENU></TT></P>
<UL>
<LI><B><FONT COLOR="#ff0000">Problem</FONT>: Roll function on Autopilot
doesnt work!</B></LI>
<LI><FONT COLOR="#CC9900">Cause</FONT>: Joystick is interfering with
autopilot gauge file</LI>
<LI><FONT COLOR="#008000">Solution</FONT>: Go to Game Controllers
Control Panel applet, and disable Poll with interrupts enabled
under Controller IDs tab.</LI>
<LI><B><FONT COLOR="#ff0000">Problem</FONT>: When adjusting the time, simulation restarts!</B></LI>
<LI><FONT COLOR="#008000">Cause</FONT>: This is a bug in FS2002, and not
a problem with this panel.</LI>

<P><FONT FACE="Tahoma" SIZE="6"><I>Acknowledgements</I></FONT></P>
<P>I would like thank Roy Chaffin of RCS Panels for a considerable degree
of support concerned with learning the techniques required for the
construction of this panel, as well as the dual panel idea. I would also
like to thank Paul Golding for the panel floodlighting idea and help on
FS2002 panel lighting, Daniel Steiner for help on programming sounds in
gauges, and Arne Bartels for telling me how to make the autopilot
FS2002-compatible.</P>
<P>Hope you enjoy this panel!</P>
