Firstly, I owe my thanks to Michael Gerlisher who is the creator of the XPLDirect.
We use and take these advantages of XPLDirect: No extra setup/driver, stable, easy to update, and just Plug and Play.
The plug-in only works with the X-Plane 11 or X-Plane 12 and Win10 or Win11 (64bit).
As a simmer, you can just download the plugin and locate it in your “…X-Plane 11/resources/plugins” or “…X-Plane 12/resources/plugins” folder. That’s it.
If your computer can not recognize the flight devices, please install these drivers respectively: Driver1, Driver2, and Windows Updates (x64). After installation please restart your computer.
The products in the store have adjustable and synced backlight functions with your sim. As an example, you can adjust the backlight of the MCP by turning the “Main Instrument Brightness Knob” on the Captain Side. Also, if you use Radio Panels, they’re synced with the brightness of the Pedestal Panel. So, you need to turn on the “Panel Brightness Knob” on the Pedestal Panel.
Advance Users Only: Modules firmware are available on GitHub.
Have so much fun and fly!
Any questions about installation, feel free to contact us via Facebook or e-mail [[email protected]].
I have a similar problem. Using MobiFlight I can load either the configuration for the EFIS or the configuration for the MCP. The “Test” feature illuminates the respective device but only the one device that has had the configuration file added.
Hi Douglas,
You should merge the configuration files on MobiFlight. And, this blog page is for XPLDirect, not for MobiFlight.

I have bought 1 EFIS and 1 MCP.
After following your instruction the EFIS works just fine but MCP doesn’t.
After conneciton of those devices EFIS backlight turns on but MCP does not turned ON.
Is this normal? How can I set the MCP up properly?
I’m using X plane 11 with B737ZIBO.
Following ‘How to run MCP with mobiflight.’ didn’t solve this problem.
