I've been using Spad.Next to map the KAP140 to my Saitek Radio Panel (ADF selection as I don't use it) as well as my Saitek Quadrant Throttle switches.
I've got everything running perfect; including displaying the altitude arm setting in the left lower window.
I'd like to display the current VS setting (i.e. 100 f/s, 200 f/s etc.) in the right window but can't find the LVAR variable for it.
I tried the Vertical Speed LVAR, but that just shows my current VS and not the target number I have set in the KAP140.
Anyone know this one?
Thanks!
Paul
LVAR for KAP140 VS Numeric Setting?

Re: LVAR for KAP140 VS Numeric Setting?
Hi Paul,
I haven't checked this one specifically, but it's possible a custom L:Var isn't required and that you could get the value required using the default 07F2 offset. However, I'd recommend that you set the target vertical speed to a known value (say 450 ft/min) then capture the local panel variables in FSUIPC then search the list for that value.
Cheers,
Nick

Never done that before but I'm up for the challenge.Nick M wrote:Hi Paul,

Any links to point to that might give me some instruction on how-to?
Thanks!

Here's a good tutorial on logging L:vars by 'guenseli' who's actually one of the A2A beta testers. (The L:Var list published by A2A is only a small sample of what's available.) Actually, I've already logged a list of L:Vars from the 182 a while ago, which you can download here as well and check through if you wish.
See how you get on. As I say, the offset method may be what's needed here. I don't have any experience with Spad.NeXt so not sure how easy it is to read from/address offsets, but the basic offset documentation is provided in the "FSUIPC Documents" folder.
