Re: Bendix King KX165 Radio

HI, I only use FSX so I had to separately code my Arduino for every function of the KAP140 to stay in "sync" with the simulation. Another member has created this incredible DLL which is able to hold the various states of the KAP140, (See the link near the bottom of the first page). It woul...

Re: Which LVars to use to get the current state of the K140 auto pilot (to enable the leds on the Honeycomb Bravo)

Hi,
I know this is an older thread, but I wonder whether there is any possibility of having the DLL file compiled for use in FSX?

thanks and kind regards

ADF Frequency Changes

Hi, I've created an ADF radio using an Arduino interfacing with Lua to FSUIPC FSX. My references for Offsets are 0x0284 for the Standby and 0x034C for the Active. (For the main frequency components) I have read that there is a FSX historical problem with 0x0284, as it is read only. In Normal (Freque...

Re: Bendix King KX165 Radio

ADF as an addition to the stack.

Just need to finalise some of the timer functionality. Then I'll upload PCBs, faceplates & files for use.

Re: Bendix King KX165 Radio

Yes you are right. I have used the LVARS available to activate the button presses as per the C172 Builders Variable List. There is another "L:AutopilotAltAlerter" which can be read that shows the altitude displayed on the KAP140 unit and can be updated. I’m basing the functionality simply ...

Not sure why the link didn't work, I think I have reset it.

Re: Bendix King KX165 Radio

I'm looking to also create a KAP140. Only the Lvars for the buttons seem to be available so I'm trying to follow the logic of the button functionality.

Re: UPDATED My attempt at recreating the Autopilot Altitude Selector

Hi Steve, The panel I used is a LCD 1602 with backlight. I did work out how the Lvar to update the Altitude and worked out how to get the AP annunciator lights from SIM. I have coded the AP annunciator display to be able to update from the Ardunio buttons and an Encoder to change the Altitude as wel...

Re: UPDATED My attempt at recreating the Autopilot Altitude Selector

Hi this is really great. I have been unable to get the AP altitude Lvar to update. I wonder whether you could help? I have been using the below Lvar/Offset and Lua to send to my Arduino. The Lvar value seems to be locked on the initial value of the AP Altitude when the simulator starts. Changing the...
