[FBW A320 Parking Brake]

Hello,

I also would like a solution for this because my acars-program cannot read the state of the parking brake and therefore I cannot use it.

I know that it needs to read the A32NX_PARK_BRAKE_LEVER_POS simvar.

Only problem is I'm not that technically brilliant to perform the necessary steps.

Could someone please explain how to achieve this in an understandable way, please.

I use the latest FSUIPC-version.

Thanks.

Eddy.

Also as mentioned it would work only for registered version, so if you don't have a registered version any proposed solution will not work so far, in my case i got the List of Lvars getting the lastest version of FSUIPC, but still i cannot get the proper value because i don't have a a registered version. so the only thing as mentioned by Jhon, is waiting from FBW to deploy the LVAR mapping to a stable version so he can finally address a proper offset to it in FSUIPC library or just modifying the Acars. which mean extra effort if you have to program it from scratch(specially if your pilots use the DEV or Experimental version of the A320).

 

Thank you Jhon for your answer.

Hi John,

This is my first post, and i hope you can help me with the solution, i have downloaded the beta version of the FSUIPC 7.2 and i have added the line bellow to the FSUIPC7.ini

[LvarOffsets]
0=A32NX_PARK_BRAKE_LEVER_POS=SB A000

As you have have suggested in the post, but then when i try to see the log value of the Offset, i got always 0, so i'm not sure if the utility works only for the registered users or is more general? then if the Offset is correct how should i read it from Vb.net i do usually do it as

 

Public parkingbrake2 As Offset(Of Short) = New FSUIPC.Offset(Of Int16)(&HA000)

but it seems does not work.

Thank you so much,

Fausto Palacios.

 

ps: from the log of FSUIPC, i got:

8953 **** Lvar 'A32NX_PARK_BRAKE_LEVER_POS' not found: cannot add to offset 0x

pss: Ihave try to list all the LVARS and i get:

19688   [INFO]: We have 000 lvars:
