AP disengage info

[Guest Manolo Velez]

Hi !

I have created a MCP panel using IOCARDS designs. (http://www.telefonica.net/web/simuexperiencias).

But, i not find offset of fsuipc that gives the necessary information me

that AP DISENGAGE is pressed, and I cannot therefore activate the corresponding

LED of my panel.

Somebody knows in that site of fsuipc inquires into the that state?

Thanks.

i not find offset of fsuipc that gives the necessary information me that AP DISENGAGE is pressed, and I cannot therefore activate the corresponding LED of my panel.

FS does not simulate a separate A/P disengage control, only the A/P on/off switch itself (as operated by the Z key by default, or the A/P switch in the gauges). The offset for the switch state is 07BC (A/P Master Switch).

If you have built an MCP with a disengage switch/bar then the logic should switch the AP master off, if it is on, and, if you have a LED as you say, light it. When the Disengage switch is in the Off position you should of course disable your AP button(s).

Regards,

Pete

Dear Manolo,

bad news: I tried to find the appropriate offset for hours now but had no luck. Maybe I looked at the wrong place? Anyway, I think it's time for an email to Enrico Schiratti. Maybe he can help?!

Bye,

Michael

PS: Please let us know if you make any efforts.

On the Project Magenta site there is a PMOffsets document that lists the FSUIPC offets to access project Magenta info, including the states of all three autopilots and the AP Disconnect bar.

I have to admit that Stuart is right. But when using FSinterrogate with MCP I don't see any change in the appropriate offsets...

So long,

Michael
