I bought the Premium Deluxe version especially for the Saab S340B, only to find the I can't program the FMC and it won't import flightplans from Simbrief or the default flightplanner.
Fortunately, I own the PMS50 GTN750 Premium which works perfectly with the S340B and I use the toolbar pop-up GTN750 instead of the buggy FMC/Autopilot in the S340B.
For any other PMS50 GTN750 Premium owners out there, and TDS GTNXi owners, here’s the basic procedure:
Create and save/export your flightplan in Simbrief or the default web flight planner.
Set your initial altitude on the S340B main panel.
Click Accept on the S340B FMC pos init screen.
Launch the GTNXi app or the PMS50 GTN750 Toolbar panel.
Click Flight Plan.
Click Menu.
Click Import.
Click Import from Simbrief or Import from sim ATC as required.
Click OK.
Click the first waypoint after Take(off).
Click Activate Leg.
The flightplan is now imported and active in the S340B FMC, you can now close the GTN750/GTNXi and continue to use the FMC and other avionics as normal.
