Alt Sel and VNAV not working
Looking for help with Alt Select in Q400 Pro. Clicking on the knob just produces a jumpy series of random altitudes but it ultimately goes back to 100 feet. Never had this problem before, and I have been happily flying this bird since it was first introduced. any ideas?

Hi,
The question is: What did you change? On my system (P3D 5.4 on WIN 11) it works as usual. Which OS version? Which simulator platform version?

Reinhard, I do not think I changed anything. Fresh install of PRO version. Windows 10, FSX Steam.
Could it be that you have the Units of measure setting within the simulator to something other than "US System (feet, inches). This has been known to cause issues in the past (not only with the Q400, but I have seen it affect other addons as well).
Kroswynd, I have checked those settings repeatedly, and in the Cpan Flight Config section I have "Mass & Fuel: Lbs and "Atmospheric Pressure": In. Is there somewhere else to change a setting? As I said, I have been flying the Dash since it was introduced. I was even a beta tester for 1.009 and 1.019 training version. This is just befuddling. Any help you can offer would be appreciated. I also notice that it will not go into NAV mode when that button is clicked. It's a fresh install of Q400 Pro which I just purchased.
All,
Curse me for a dunderhead. The setting for Units of Measure are not in CPAN. They are the master settings in the flight simulator program itself. Having now properly interpreted the location, I have made the change, and all works as it should. Sorry for the wild goose chase. Please mark this issue CLOSED.
