Glider Specific Variables

[CaptnJackBilbo]

I'm trying to read VARIOMETER_MAC_CREADY_SETTING but cannot find the offset in "Offset Status". Are those glider specific vars (e.g. VARIOMETER...) not yet supported by FSUIPC or am i simply looking in the wrong place?

FSUIPC only holds a small subset of available simvars (or a-type variables) in its offsets. If you want to use (i.e. read and write) the value of a simvar via offsets, you can add it to a spare/free FSUIPC offset - see the section Adding Simulator variables (simvars) to FSUIPC offsets on page 35 of the Advanced User guide,

If you just want to update the value of the simvar, you could define a preset for this, instead of adding it to an offset. But if not familiar with calculator code or RPN, may be easier to add it to an offset and use that,

Great, thanks a lot, will try that.
