Is this not true? so when i touch the application on my tablet it launches the Z_2D_XP EFB - External 2D EFB. When it goes black i can open up the panels and add a new Z_2D_XP EFB - External 2D EFB panel. and go full screen at which time it is still a black screen.

Apologize if I am using the wrong terms..

Hi Jim, as @Ralph pointed out, it's called Air manager on Android, also mentioned it in my previous post.
So, is it potentially, you've not put the related script in the zibomod "root folder/plugins/xlua/script/" ??? (Z_2D_XP.efb whole folder)

Read here the Z_2D_XP EFB Plugin section, download and extract the required part (Z_2D_XP_EFB_PLUGIN_and_README.zip), next put it in the right folder as mentioned ...

Should look like this :

And if it doesn't solve, you still have an issue on your tablet ...

That's what I was curious about. When the screen is black, if the whole app is 'broken' or if it is just the instrument(s) being displayed. A way to test it would be with a different panel, Cessna panel for example. But then also check if the instruments still show 'live data'. It might be that the connection to the flight simulator is gone.

Thank You both for the assistance,

Sorry SimPassion I thought you had said that I did not need to add the Z_2D_XP EFB - External 2D EFB Tablet for ZiboMod 1.5.2 to my plugins so I did not add it. I will do that today.

I will try another panel to test and verify the connection is live when this happens..

Not the whole instrument, just the link provided which contains a Readme and a folder with only one script
Hope you don't understand this otherwise than it has been said ... 🤔
