Need help with Airbus X Autopilot!

I'm seriously confused with this Airbus X Autopilot.

In a freeware A320, I can easily use the autopilot and I have completed many short and long journey's using this baby. However, I recently bought Airbus X expecting it to be similar. It's not.

I took-off from Faro, Portugal on route to Lisbon, Portugal to complete a test flight with the A320 Airbus X but I was annoyed at the fact that the autopilot didn't work.

I change to HDG to 005 as instructed but I can't seem to get HDG Hold; I simply cannot find it. The same with altitude, I program 6,000ft into the ALT knob but I don't know how to activate ALT Hold.

So a couple questions:

How do I activate these two things?
Where do I input the ILS frequency and the course? - I can't find the radio for NAV 1 or the course selector for an ILS landing
How do I activate speed hold?

Please help me! I had no problem in freeware aircraft but in this, I am struggling quite a lot!

Thank you!

You need to learn how to use the MDCU.  It's not the NAV/GPS stuff, and its very advanced.  Read the manual for everything, and the AEROSOFT forums

Again it explains everything in the manual.  In your MDCU, does it display a .0 in the scratchpad?
