Okay so I have a few questions regarding Aerosoft's Airbus X.

1) Where do I activate the morse code beeper? (on the freeware airbus, I pressed Nav1 Audio Selector) - How do I activate NAV1 audio selector on Airbus X?

2) When I am given a runway to land on using ILS, where do I enter the runway heading and the ILS frequency into?

3) When I activate either SPD HOLD, ALT HOLD, HDG HOLD or any other autopilot functions, how do I know it's holding them? In the cockpit, a little circle thing pops up next to it, is this it?

4) There is two autopilot things to choose from, Autopilot 1 and Autopilot 2, what one do I select to select the regular autopilot ON?

5) When using FREEWARE Airbus, when I was landing via ILS, I had to select a knob which had two settings: NAV/GPS - Where is this setting in Airbus X so I can select it to NAV so I can land using ILS

Screenshots would be amazingly helpful.

Thanks so much!

Regards,

The AirbusX is not for newbies.  This is how an actual Airbus is flown.  They don't use the NAV/GPS stuff, its the MDCU. Read the manual, and use the Aerosoft Support forums, you might get a better answer. And the ADF, it in the Comms unit.  The frequencies and courses are entered in the STAR that you choose, and then you would put the frequency into the radio called "NAV" and the course heading into the spot on the AP stack.  It would be the first autopilot switch. What do you mean by a circle thing? do you mean this; ".0"?
Again, I would HIGHLY recommend reading the manual, it explains EVERYTHING you need to know.  I will post Screen-Shots later, I'm using an iPad, so its a little hard getting FSX shots.
EDIT: This topic will probably be moved to the "Payware" section

As requested, here are some screenshots.  Sorry if you can't read them.

Firstly, you need to make a FSdefualt flight plan.  When you do, put your VOR waypoints, and then the intersections that you need for the runway you want to land on.  The plane HAS THE COURSE and FREQUENCIES ALL READY IN THE MDCU. 
...

Before you land, do this below;
...

Now, before you push back from the gate make sure you have your alt. set, and your Flight Director on.
...

After take off, do everything it says.  The aircraft will do EVERYTHING automatically,  the rate if climb, the speed, you just need to sit back and watch.
...


After take-off, move your thortal back to where it would say 'CLB" on you centre display. and boom. thats it.
...
