User Guide
VERSION 3.52 (23 FEB 2022) 1

Acknowledgments
The B737-800X project would not be possible without the inspiration and dedication from Lubos
Zibek (Zibo).
The project has moved forward from a basic design to a Real World modelled 737-800.
Changes to the characteristics of the aircraft are continuously being refined by a testing team of real
world pilots and of course Zibo’s programming skills.
The AviTab interface is work done by Folko, and, whilst the interface is only a small part of the
overall Electronic Flight Bag functionality, his work must also be recognised as without it the EFB in
its current form would not be possible.
Without the dedication of the entire team we would not be here today.
Richard Grech.

Payload Warning
• If the aircraft is loaded in such a manner that the result is that one or more of the Structural
maximums is exceeded, (overweight) i.e MZFW, MTOW or MLDW, then the CG that
corresponds to the overweight situation is displayed in Orange.
• If the aircraft is loaded in such a manner that the result is that one or more of the Structural
limits is outside the CG (Trim) Envelope, (Out of Trim) i.e MZFW or MTOW, then the CG that
corresponds to the Out of Trim situation is displayed in Orange.
Fig. 9
• In Fig. 9 above, the TO CG is Orange, thus indicating either an Overweight or Out of Trim
problem.
• The ZFW CG is Green, thus indicating that Weight and Trim are within limits.
• Both the ZFW and TOW can be checked directly above in this Window. If the weight is under
MZFW or MTOW then the issue is a Trim issue.
• Issues of Weight or Trim can be verified pictorially in the CG Envelope Window.
Payload Fixes
• If the aircraft is Out of Trim, the fix is to re-distribute Passengers or below wing Cargo.
• If the aircraft is Overweight at ZFW, the fix is to reduce Passenger uplift or reduce below
wing Cargo. (OFFLOAD)
• If the aircraft is Overweight at TOW, the fix is to reduce below wing Cargo or reduce
Passenger uplift or as a last resort renegotiate fuel with the crew. This last option DOES
happen in real world operations. (Tankering situations)

Thrust Adjustment
Functionality has been added to the EFB to allow the user to dynamically adjust various Thrust
Parameters in the FMC.
Adjustments will control the Takeoff Thrust behaviour based on whether Cutback is selected “ON” or
“OFF” in the FMC. As shown in the image below.
Note: The selected state of Cutback is shown in Green.

i.e. On the Left image – Cutback is OFF. On the Right image – Cutback is ON
When making adjustments in the EFB, note and understand the following behaviour.
1. Making adjustments in the EFB, will dynamically update the corresponding FMC
parameter.
2. Multiple adjustments to the same parameter may be made via the EFB adjustment
method.
3. If the user updates a parameter by entering data directly in the FMC scratch pad
and then Line Select Key, the FMC will update BUT the EFB will not update to the
new figure.
4. If data is updated as per step 3 above, the resulting display in the FMC will be a
larger font. This will “Lock” this figure and adjustments through the EFB are NOT
permitted.

Plan/ Fuel Installed
YES When Yes is selected, the PERF INIT page will display dashes to allow the PLAN Fuel
to be entered manually prior to Fuelling complete for FMC calculations.
The entry is blanked once an engine is started.
CAUTION: As long as PLAN Fuel is displayed, GW is calculated as ZFW + PLAN Fuel. When the
PLAN Fuel is blanked, as explained above, GW is updated to ZFW + FINAL Fuel. If a
Fuel variation exists between PLAN Fuel and FINAL Fuel resulting in a change to the
pre-calculated Takeoff Speeds, there is NO WARNING advice. It is strongly suggested
that all input data and calculated speeds be checked after engine start.
Example: Additional fuel is ordered after PLAN Fuel entered. Takeoff calculations are
performed on PLAN Fuel. After engine start GW is now updated. Takeoff Speeds
should be checked in case the variation was sufficient to cause a change.
NO When No is selected, the ability to enter the PLAN Fuel for pre-calculations is not
available.

Disclaimer: The description following is intended to only briefly outline in general terms the system
functionality. It is therefore recommended that for in-depth understanding, other specific resources
should be searched on the internet.
INTEGRATED APPROACH NAVIGATION (IAN)
IAN functionality is NOT a standard in the 737-800, but rather a customer option.
IAN is a simplification of multiple Approach procedures. It has reduced 18 procedures to 1. (ILS, LOC,
LOC-DME, LDA, BCRS, SDF, VOR, VOR on airport, VOR-DME, VOR-ARC, NDB, NDB on airport, NDB-
DME, NDB-NDB, ASR, PAR, RNAV 3-D, and RNAV 2-D). Selecting APP mode will provide displays
similar to the Instrument Landing System (ILS).
While the IAN display is similar to an ILS display, there are sufficient visual differences to ensure that
the crew does not confuse a non-precision IAN approach for a precision ILS or GLS approach.

SELECTION SELECTED DESCRIPTION

RA CALLOUT HARD A HARD Callout will annunciate the “SELECTED
ALTITUDE” once during each approach
SMART Smart Callout annunciates the “SELECTED ALTITUDE”
during a non-ILS or non-GLS approach. Activation of this
callout is dependent only on lack of an ILS or GLS.
However, if flying an ILS or GLS approach, and there is
excessive flight path deviation, the GPWS will conclude
a non-ILS or non-GLS approach is being flown.
This feature functions with or without any of the
normal altitude callouts.
When descending below the “SELECTED RADIO
ALTITUDE” on approach, a corresponding
callout is given if:
• an approach other than ILS (the ILS frequency is not
tuned) or GLS is used, or
• a backcourse approach is detected, or
• Glideslope Cancel is selected, or
• the flight path is not within +/- 2 dots of a valid
localizer beam (excessive
ILS or GLS flightpath deviation), or
• the flight path is not within +/- 2 dots of a valid
glideslope (excessive ILS
or GLS flightpath deviation)

>>Re-start Xplane
>> A new file “user_nav.dat” will create in the Custom

Data Folder from data referenced from another source
(eg Navigraph) (for ILS nav data)
>> Restart Xplane (warning in EFB also shown)
>> Automatic update of file after NavData update in

Custom Data Folder
>> All aircraft will use new NavData

Settings and delete “user_nav.dat” file, re-start Xplane
Example: ENCN, ILS 03
Option OFF:
Xplane nav data frequency = 110.30
Navigraph nav data = 110.35
Frequency recognised (used) will be 110.30 as 110.35 is not recognised in the Xplane nav data.
Option ON:
Xplane nav data frequency = 110.35 (now updated in Xplane – “user_nav.dat”)
Navigraph nav data = 110.35
Frequency recognised (used) will be 110.35
(Description and Example supplied by Zibo)
VERSION 3.52 (23 FEB 2022) 163

User NavData – Expanded Description
ZiboMod uses Navigraph data as the primary source (if it exists, otherwise it falls back to default
data too). So, in the past you could end up flying to an airport that is ILS equipped but the frequency
in the sim was different from the one in Zibo database (coming from Navigraph) and you were
unable to use neither of the frequencies -- the sim one was unknown to Zibo and Zibo one didn't
exist in the sim.
Another issue comes from the fact that X-Plane scenery doesn't reflect changes to runway IDs
related to changes of magnetic declination. Zibo (at the moment) reads the runway data from
sceneries (custom sceneries and global airports) and it may lead to mismatch between scenery and
nav data. CIFP data from Navigraph may not be matched with the runways of the airport. Or, as was
the case of Brisbane, where the runway 01/19 was changed to 01R/19L during construction of the
parallel runway, RW01R in the CIFP data couldn't be matched to RW01 from scenery and instead to
the airport, the approach would suddenly lead you more than 8000 miles away, where the nearest
RW01R was found.
Changes Zibo made in the mod and the user nav data generated as a mix of Navigraph and scenery
data should prevent such situations. At the moment it doesn't solve the occasional difference
between ILS course in the FMC and in Navigraph charts, but even this should be solved in the near
future.

FLAP axis:
1/ Set your flap axis to "Flaps" in Xplane Settings.

2/ Check that your hardware (lever) flap axis moves in the same direction as in cockpit lever.
(otherwise use "Reverse axis" in Xplane setting page)
3/ Set your flap axis to "None" in Xplane Settings.
4/ Go to page Hardware Calibration in EFB (Configure & Customize / Calibration)
5/ Click on line "Custom Flap Axis" and move your hardware flap lever. (Axis will create
automatically)
6/ Now you have configured hardware flap axis correctly (axis is divided evenly for flap "detent").
Advanced (Hardware Flap Lever with detent positions):

1/ Select flap position in EFB (click on line "FLAP DETENT") for set detent - "UP" (this line shows
actual set flap axis value for the selected flap detent)
2/ Move hardware flap lever to position UP and click on line "FLAP POSITION >SET<” (this line
shows actual flap axis position).
3/ Select the next position - "1".
4/ Move hardware flap lever to position 1 and click on line "FLAP POSITION <SET>".
5/ Repeat for all remaining detents.
Repeat the steps above to set up custom axis for Speedbrake and Landing Gear.
