Airbus X Extended VS inc/dec lua needed

Recommended Posts

Guys, please help me out with 2 small lua files for VS Inc and VS Dec functions of FCU. I've collected most of the lua files needed to control principal FCU buttons and rotaries from the past discussions of Pete, guenseli and Kaptejnln. Luckily most of the examples of short single Luas made by Kaptejnln work just fine in AXExtended and I use them to control buttons and rotaries on FCU via FSUIPC. But for the life of me I can not figure out lua scripts for VS Increase and VS decrease, and actually VS is the last function that I need to map to my GoFlight modules. I'd greatly appreciate somebody posted the required text for the 2 luas here.

Much thanks,

Dirk.

Here you go, Dirk:


-- VS/FPA switch button
function switchHDGTRK (joynum, button, downup)
ipc.writeLvar( "L:AB_AP_HDGTRK", 1 - ipc.readLvar("L:AB_AP_HDGTRK") )
ipc.writeLvar( "L:SmallOverheadPushButtons", 1 )
end

-- VS/FPA Inc
function incFPAorVS ( joynum, button, downup )
if ipc.readLvar("L:AB_AP_HDGTRK") == 1 then -- 1 = TRK/FPA

local lFPA = ipc.readLvar( "L:AB_AP_FPA_Select2" ) + 0.1
if lFPA > 9.9 then
lFPA = 9.9
end
ipc.writeLvar( "L:AB_AP_FPA_Select2", lFPA )

else -- 0 = HDG/SPD so set VS

local lVS = ipc.readLvar( "L:AB_AP_VS_Select2" ) + 1
if lVS > 60 then
lVS = 60
end
ipc.writeLvar( "L:AB_AP_VS_Select2", lVS )

end

end

-- VS/FPA Dec
function decFPAorVS ( joynum, button, downup )
if ipc.readLvar("L:AB_AP_HDGTRK") == 1 then -- 1 = TRK/FPA

local lFPA = ipc.readLvar( "L:AB_AP_FPA_Select2" ) - 0.1
if lFPA < -9.9 then
lFPA = -9.9
end
ipc.writeLvar( "L:AB_AP_FPA_Select2", lFPA )

else -- 0 = HDG/SPD so set VS

local lVS = ipc.readLvar( "L:AB_AP_VS_Select2" ) - 1
if lVS < -60 then
lVS = -60
end
ipc.writeLvar( "L:AB_AP_VS_Select2", lVS )

end

end


-- VS/FPA Level
function levFPAorVS ( joynum, button, downup )
if ipc.readLvar("L:AB_AP_HDGTRK") == 1 then

ipc.writeLvar( "L:AB_AP_FPA_Select2", 0 )

else

ipc.writeLvar( "L:AB_AP_VS_Select2", 0 )

end

end


-- register the buttons of your joystick triggering the functions
-- replace joyletter by the actual used letter/number, also replace buttonX by the actual value
event.button("joyletter", button1, 1, "incFPAorVS")
event.button("joyletter", button2, 1, "decFPAorVS")
event.button("joyletter", button3, 1, "switchHDGTRK")
event.button("joyletter", button4, 1, "levFPAorV")[/CODE]
