Brilliant !
I wasn’t aware of the « l:AutopilotAltAlerter » LVAR which is a game changer…
Your sharing on this forum is priceless for home cockpit builders.
Thank you so much,

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
--- Update -----
These are the files, PCBs, Face Plates and code used for construction.
- The module simulates the functionality of the ADF_K87 unit as per the A2A Cessna 172 and the manual.
- I have used a single encoder with push button. The Push button switches between MHZ/KHZ for all Frequency tuning and Countdown timer setting.
- The Flight Timer, Elapsed Timer and Count Down are all internal to the code in the Arduino and match the A2A Cessna 172 ADF. This saves constant Serial traffic from FSX/P3D to the Arduino.
- Both the Timers and the Count Down are mathematically corrected to show the accurate real time. My Arduino Mega clone has a CH340 chip.
Zip file with all ADF module files:

Re: Bendix King KX165 Radio
Very nice work but my question about what do you use for displays for the instruments?
Re: Bendix King KX165 Radio
Hello, i was wondering if anyone has manager to get the variables to simulate the KAP140 display or still is the big issue of this plane. Thanks in advance.
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 would make the coding for hardware much easier and less complex.

The DLL is compiled in 64 Bit so I think it will only work in P3D, not FSX unfortunately.
