Lua Correct ipc.Write

[hawkt1]

hello 

 

I'm using LUA to extra values from the aerosoft airbus.

 

I've used writeUB as an example, obviously this limits the value to 255, then back to zero.

 

What would be the right option?  DD?

 

Many thanks

 

AB_AP_SPEED_Select_OFFSET = 0x66C3
AB_AP_HDG_Select_OFFSET = 0x66C4


function Autopilot_AP_SPEED_Select(varname, value)
       ipc.writeUB(AB_AP_SPEED_Select_OFFSET, value)
end


function Autopilot_AP_HDG_Select(varname, value)
       ipc.writeUB(AB_AP_HDG_Select_OFFSET, value)
end

Hi,

First character U=Unsigned and S=Signed
Second character B=Byte, W=Word (=2 Bytes), D=Double (=4 Bytes).

1 Byte = 8 bits = 0..255

I don't know the Airbus interface but that's the logic behind the several ipc.writeXY() functions.
