Bonanza LVAR
-
Hello
I recently bought bonanza and I am very happy with it, it is a great achievement.
I am using SpadNext and I realize that some LVARs are not working. Or maybe it's me.
The LVARS are the following:
DEICE_PROPELLER_1: at 1 or 0 nothing changes
BKSQ_BONANZA_FUELFLOW_1 with VAR_SWITCH_PUMP_1: these two variables change with the pump switch. The LVAR VAR_SWITCH_PUMP_1 works well but BKSQ_BONANZA_FUELFLOW_1 does not. It can take 3 values: 0, 3.5 or 7. But if I send these values, it doesn't work.
But maybe I am making a mistake.
Thanks in advance

A reply direct from the developer:
The propeller deice is controlled via an Asobo template, and therefore should be controlled with the usual B:Var, not an L:Var. Setting the fuel flow will not work, as it's only an output, not an input. Setting L:var_FUEL_Switch_Pump_1 must also be accompanied by turning on the fuel pump's circuit. In RNP, this is accomplished with (>A:CIRCUIT SWITCH ON:4, bool).

@voice-of-reason we can do control the prop deice function (B:PROP DEICE SWITCH:1 does the job) but there's no animation of the deice switch though. Only animation of prop amps needle and alt load needle can be observed.

Hello and thank you for your help.
Regarding the DEICE variable, I have understood well. However, for the electric pump, it seems more complex.
If, in the game, I activate with the mouse the battery and the pump switch, everything works. The variable BKSQ_BONANZA_FUELFLOW_1 displays a value (which I cannot change and this is normal) and the pump works.
But if, with spadnext, I modify the values of the variables ELECTRIC_MASTER_BATTERY and VAR_FUEL_SWTICH_PUMP_1 by setting them to 1, nothing happens, the pump does not start.
The variable BKSQ_BONANZA_FUELFLOW_1 remains at 0.
There must be a third variable but I can't find it. -

@usul for the fuel pump switch you have to add "set CIRCUIT SWITCH ON 4 to 1". This works for me. I then assigned two buttons to switch the pump from Lo to HI!

@hornet975 Thank you very much, that's exactly it. Curious how you found it
@usul usually you find this information in the model.xml file.

Hi guys, do you know how to setup a Switch Panel to ignite the engine when the magneto knob goes to start position?
