This free add-on was designed for FS2004 and FSX.  This update applies 
to both FS9 and FSX versions.  Version 1.30 and the V1.31 update of the TinMouse II must be installed prior to installing this update.

Instructions for update:

1.  Unzip the download file to a temporary directory

2.  Copy the B732adv.gau file to your panel.B732ADV directory.  Overwrite the old 
file if prompted.

In FS9: <your FS9 directory>\aircraft\fsfsconv\panel.B732ADV\
In FSX: <your FSX directory>\Simobjects\airplanes\fsfsconv\panel.B732ADV\

3.  Copy the corrected TM.ini file to your FS9/FSX root directory.  The only
difference between this file and the one included in V1.31 is corrected comments regarding the proper location for the file.

That's it!  You're done.

================================================================================
V1.32 Changes
================================================================================

1. Corrects FSX behavior that resulted in prematurely closing FSUIPC when FSX'
main window was resized (including switching between windowed and full-screen mode).
Symptoms included frozen airspeed and DME indications, among others.

2. Changed digit rollover behavior on the HSI distance window so that tens and
hundreds digits have smooth gradual rollover.

3. Fixed a bug in APD logic for VOR course arming/intercept

4. Fixed problem where internal floating point rounding errors occasionally 
resulted in skipped digits on the SP-177 MCP mach and airspeed command windows

================================================================================
V1.31 Changes
================================================================================

1.  Bug fixes--see below.  All confirmed V1.30 bugs have been addressed in this update.

2.  TM.ini file--the panel now loads an optional TM.ini file, which allows setting
a variety of parameters:

	a. Allows the same configuration specs previously made in the title= line.
	   These include  specs for engine variants (-9, -15, and -17), metric
	   fuel quantity and flow indications, use of millibars on the altitude
	   alerting system (SP-77 only), and presence of ISG FMS gauges.
	   These changes are global, but the title= line will override if a
	   different option is specified for a particular livery.

	b. Allows initialization of the panel with engines shut down, or with the
	   GPU or APU running and powering the acft.

	c. Allows specification of the cabin temp at initialization to support users
	   of FSCaptain.

	d. Allows tailoring of sound volumes for a wide variety of panel sound
	   categories.  Allows shutting off of 80 knot and V Speed calls for users
	   of some programs like Flight Deck Companion that have their own callouts.

3.  Overhead master caution warning.  The blank (center-left) light in the master
caution warning "sixpack" now illuminates when a warning light not already associated
with the captain's ELEC, APU, FLT CONT, FUEL, or OVHT/DET lights illuminates on the
overhead panel.  This mirrors the behavior of the "OVHD" warning light that would 
illuminate on the first officer's sixpack if we had one.  The caution-warning system 
got a major re-work in this update.

4.  Mouse wheel controls -- most of the rotary knobs on the panel now work well
with mouse-wheel inputs, including the radio knobs, which had exhibited some rather 
flaky behavior with the mouse wheel previously.

5.  For users of Oliver Pabst's excellent AES add-on, right-clicking the marker
sensitivity switch (tucked in at the top of the main panel just below the master
caution light) will toggle the AES window if you are at an AES-enabled airfield.

6.  Numerous minor improvements...KGS now reflected in the PDCS when metric fuel
quants are selected, sounds for various switches added, improvements to logic in
the SP-177 autopilot and pressurization system, etc.


================================================================================
Bug Fixes Since V1.30
================================================================================
1.  Missing left.bmp file in V1.30 archive--included in this update.  

2.  Bad panel.cfg file for FS9 SP177+ISG+TCAS configuration with references to non-TM 
gauges etc.  Corrected sample config file included in this update.

3.  No A/P disconnect audio warning when A/P disengaged.  The updated panel gauges and
soundbank files address this.  However you may experience both the default and the panel
gauge sounds when the A/P is disconnected.  Reducing the maximum_volume to 0 in the 
AP_DISENGAGE_SOUND section of the sound.cfg file in the B727-200_TM2 folder *should*,
in theory, eliminate the default A/P disconnect sound.  That theory did not work on most
of my test machines, however. I found it necessary to go into the FS9 and FSX \Sound
directories and rename the caapdis.wav file to stop hearing the default AP disconnect
sound. YMMV here.

4.  CTD when clicking on the electric stab trim cutout switch.  Fixed, works normally.

5.  Switching the MCP from speed to mach hold on the ground resulted in erratic
incrementing and decrementing.  Fixed.

6.  Title= line options not recognized.  Fixed, plus the new TM.ini facility allows
all the same options to be specified there.  Options in the title= line will override
the .ini file settings.

7.  Selecting ALT HOLD directly on the MCP did not result in level off.  Fixed, although
if in a rapid climb/descent, the level off will overshoot the engaged altitude significantly
before returning to the altitude at which ALT HLD was engaged.

8.  Cabin Alt warning horn will not silence.  Fixed.
