Binding autopilot to Bravo panel

LuigiDelussu

Has anyone been able to bind the autopilot buttons to the corresponding buttons on the Honeycomb Bravo?

@luigidelussu Have you tried using SPAD?

LuigiDelussu

@europa27 yes, but I can't seem to find any appropriate LVAR or Event. Do you know them or where I can find a list?

(All of the following, except for altitude hold, are changing data values rather than sending simulation events)

I've set the autopilot master like this (the conditions are important):

The LVAR's for the rest:

Heading mode AUTOPILOT_hdg (LVAR)
Nav mode AUTOPILOT_nav (LVAR)
Approach mode AUTOPILOT_apr (LVAR)
Reverse Course mode AUTOPILOT_rev (LVAR)

which I've set up as follows: (obviously just changed the LVAR's according to which button you are programming)

The heading bug can by incremented/decremented with the following LVAR:

AUTOPILOT HEADING LOCK DIR

I haven't got the course bug set up, probably because I couldn't get it to work!

Finally, the hidden altitude hold mode can be toggled with this simulation event:

AP_ALT_HOLD

@europa27 thanks a lot, I will try it rn.

@europa27 thank you so much, now I only have to understand what lvar to use to set the lights for rev on, but I will make it :)

BTW this works a treat for both heading and course:
