Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone has access to the LVAR data for the 757 Captain III? I would like to use it with LINDA and the VRInsight MCP and create a relevant file for it.

I have used SPAD.neXt to get some LVAR data, but would really appreciate a full list so I can make relevant assignments as easy as possible.

Would Captain Sim be able to help me out with this too? Many thanks for such a fantastic product!

Best regards,

Pete

Hi there,

Many thanks! I have managed to track the LVAR data and work with it. I will also wait for the SDK from 1.1.

Best regards,

Pete 

Thanks again.
SDK will explain all of that.
After the 1.1.

Hi Thantheleon,

Please could you put me out of my misery hehe...

Are the IAS, HDG, V/S and ALT commands run through FSX/P3D commands or Lvars?

When dialling, I am able to find Lvars. Lvars also exist in the panel.cfg. However, the only way to get any of the dials moving is through direct FSX/P3D assignments. The assignment of Lvars just doesn't seem to do anything (I can get dial animations, but that's it...)

Please, please, please help 

Thank you,

Pete

Hi,

Thanks for this long awaited SDK manual. I can now finish my LUA script to be able to "click" on buttons .

Just a question. In the SDK it is written that we can find the object lists on related "maps" = JPG files. Where are they?

Regards, Skip.

Ok got them thank you. I was able to complete my VRi MCP Lua script (I didn't know how to simulate clicks...). I suppose that CS737 for P3D4 won't have the same SDK? Because I didn't find how to manage HDG bug via Lvars...

Well I tried this command to rotate HDG without any result:
     ipc.writeLvar ("L:klid", 2207005)

BTW I can use specific "_C" ending lvars to simulate click on buttons but on HDG bug I have to "unclick" not to have the knob turning without stopping.
     ipc.writeLvar ("L07_005_KNOB_C", 1)
     ipc.sleep(2)
     ipc.writeLvar ("L07_005_KNOB_C", 0)

And this method is not working well of course... Any CS737 programmer to contact?

Hey Everyone! I am posting my to this topic at the request of the support team. See below:

"I programmed the MCP Autopilot buttons to work with saitek multi panel through the SPAD.next application using the newly released SDK. The button on the autopilot do not funtion properly when programed this way. I tried to use LUA scripts as well and the same issue. The buttons work as intended when using the mouse. The buttons on the 757 MCP get stuck in the pressed position when toggled by the saitek panel. I have set them up per the instructions of the manual provided with the sdk. I tried a set parameter to 1, toggle parameter to 1 and 0 as well. None of these activate the button like a mouse click would.
It happens anytime while using a saitek multi panel to control Autopilot functions.
When using a mouse to select V/S button it presses in momentarily and then release with the button being highlighted. WHen the saitek panel VS button is pushed the V/S button in sim sticks in the pressed in position. If I toggle it again via the Siatek panel it releases, but does not activate. I have read the momentary switch/button section of the manual as well. Do I need to make a video or set of pictures for you?"
