problems re-entering HDX1100 and HDX800 setup screens

[aviatorbob]

I have periodic problems getting back into setup screen the second time in a session. No problems entering setup the 1st time after the system powers up, but if I exit setup and later need to get back in, the screen flashes an attempt at the setup screen but reverts to the operational display. If I power down and up again I can then enter setup. I don't think this is normal and I don't want it to happen in the air. In Phase 1 flight at the moment.

So what you want, and this should be resolved obviously, but I wouldn't want to be heads-down in setup menus during flight test...not for a good long time, in fact. Fix it on the ground, whatever it is.

If you don't make solid contact on both buttons for the 2 seconds you need to hold them down you may see this. This may indicate a problem with the button hardware too. Try pressing harder to see if that lets both buttons work. Does it only exhibit the problem when the engine is running?

Also know that only one display can be in setup at a time. Once one display is in setup, the other will give you an alert to that effect - so perhaps you are seeing that?

One thing I will add, if you have Reversion mode turned on, turn it off. It seems to be related to issues getting into setup on dual screen systems.
SETUP MENUS > SYSTEM SETUP > SCREEN LAYOUT SETUP > REVERSION MODE ENABLE > NO
