Duke Lvar Values Not Correct

@Black-Square said in Duke Lvar Values Not Correct:
I know why it thinks it's in Go-Around mode (when no other vertical mode is selected, it has to assume GA mode, because the SimVar for go around mode doesn't work correctly...), but AP_PITCH_LEVELER_ON should definitely work. That's the same event that's triggered when you click on the attitude button in the virtual cockpit.
I've tested it in FSUIPC and in Mobiflight and by just using the var goes to GA.. but just calling AP_PITCH_LEVELER_ON not passign any value or doing anything else.
-
I just tried it here with the command in the MSFS controls settings, and it indicates attitude holding mode as expected. Have you tried it with the native control assignments menu? I would FSUIPC and Mobiflight to behave exactly the same, but if it works from within the simulator, then we know that something strange is going on. Do you know what the suggested solution in Spad.next is? That might give me a hint.
-
@Black-Square I will try from native.
Take alook here in this post in this forum: ATT SPAD

Thanks for the link. Oooh, are you using the PMS50 GTN when you try this? I see in my code that the PMS50 won't work with the pitch leveler command, and I used "K:AP_ALT_HOLD" instead.

That was it! Thanks.

Delightful! Thanks for responding so that others with the same question will be able to search for this. I'm glad that's all it was!

One thing more. I was in flight and using K:AP_ALT_HOLD switched to ATT but it started ascending fast. I suppose i have to use another event also to just center the ATT wheel? When i press the ATT button it doesn't behave like this. It is centered.

Ah yes, I recall hitting that issue with the PMS50 too. I wish there was an easier solution, but simply writing the aircraft's current pitch to the pitch knob should solve the problem:
(A:PLANE PITCH DEGREES, degrees) (>L:var_AP_PitchKnob, number) -
Thanks it worked.
For anyone wondering how to do this in FSUIPC:
Page 49 of the advanced FSUIPC manual:
-
Create a file
myevents.txtin the fsuipc directory -
Create a profile entry there like this:
duke-att-wheel-rst#(A:PLANE PITCH DEGREES, degrees) (>L:var_AP_PitchKnob, number)bind the duke-att-wheel-rst preset to the button you like.
I assign the
AP_ALT_HOLDto the press event of the button and theduke-att-wheel-rstpreset to the release of the same button. In that way the AP goes to ATT mode at the current pitch. -

Hello! I can’t understand how Left/Right Landing Light works
B:LIGHTING_LANDING_1_Toggle - is this a button to toggle?
(1 K:LANDING_LIGHTS_SET) - is this for the toggle switch? But what does the number 1 (or 2) before the letter K mean? There seems to be no such syntax in Mobileflight.Thank you!

K:LANDING_LIGHTS_SET is the name of the event, and you should call it with parameter 0 for both OFF and 2 for ON.
If you want to control them separately, you'll need to use the B events.I need one switch for both (left and right) for FSUIPC
I wrote it like this... probably wrong :-( Not workLandingLightOn# (2K:LANDING_LIGHTS_SET)
LandingLightOff# (0K:LANDING_LIGHTS_SET)Can you tell me how to write a correctly?

@Rolo-Bach here as I have it done using spad.next for External Power - it's mapped to a StreamDeck button
External Power On
External Power Off
StreamDeck example

@Rolo-Bach for the Heater the LVAR:bksq_PreHeater will do the job (0 = OFF, 1 = ON)
