Problem with KNS81 mapping
-
I'm not able to read the variables added for monitoring the KNS81, from the manual:
"Added L:Var variables to access more information from the KNS81..."
I had these before, as I got help to manually add them to the config files of the planes, but with the latest version without the manual edit; I don't see them.
A local problem on my side, or could there be a fault with the official files in the latest update?

We're speaking about the Baron and Bonanza? The outputs are definitely there in the code, so it's possible that I just gave you different variable names when I had you add them manually. Here is a list of what it output. Let me know if you need more information, please:
L:var_RNAV_WAYPOINT_NUMBER
L:var_RNAV_CHECKMODE
L:var_RNAV_RADIAL_NUMBER
L:var_RNAV_DISTANCE_NUMBERL:BKSQ_RNAV_TO_Degraded
L:BKSQ_RNAV_FROM_Degraded
L:BKSQ_RNAV_CDI_Degraded
L:BKSQ_RNAV_BRG_Degraded -
strange, yes, these are the ones I'm using

@Black-Square To clarify, the L:var's show up on my system, but I am not able to read anything other than zero from them.

Hi @GunStrauss, I have a very similar problem, maybe a worse problem. I am trying to create a page with SPAD.neXt for my Loupedeck Live device. I have assigned correctly four dials to the ones in the Analog Baron KNS 81 (lovely piece of avionics, by the way), and also I could map the USE, DATA and RTN keys. Thanks to one suggestion of you in another place I am able to see the Nav 3 value [FRQ] in one of the Loupedeck's buttons.
BUT I cannot find the RAD or the CHK buttons, and, regarding the LVars, I can only find RADIAL_NUMBER and DISTANCE_NUMBER, but the only value that I obtain is zero. Finnally, the WAYPOINT_NUMBER and the DISTANCE_NUMBER are not in the SPAD.neXt list. You have them, but they don't work, I have only two of them, and they don't work.
Finnaly, regarding the another four BKSQ_RNAV vars, I would like to ask how they work in the KNS 81, I had no idea about them.
Thanks a lot in advance and best regards,
Felix FdC (Oviedo, Spain)

Both the KNS-81 and -80 still requires some manual edits to get proper output for the LVARS when the navigation aids are not in range. I'm coming back to you when I know more! Best, GS
