Dear all,

While setting up/testing all the AP switches for my (3d printed) Bendix Kap-140 AP, I 've encountered a problem...
When I'm in the sim,and I click the AP's "ALT" button (with my mouse! inscreen) , it will Toggle between ALT (ft light goes on,and I can enter the height by the encoder) ,
and VS (FPM !!!!/feet per minute) light goes on,and I can enter the "VS speed" with the "UP'+"DWN" button).

But where is this VS mode fpm setting or is there a turnaround??

Help/suggestions are highly appreciated,also tips for (LCD) diplaying notifications like "alert" like a popup or so?Even one capital A letter being displayed is cool:)


EDIT by Pizman: Insert the other double post....
As seen here in this picture (nr 6 and 7)

Hi

As always.... Its a question of AddOn.
You not tell us what Sim or Aircraft you use.
Every single Aircraft ( Specially AddOns) will have own Offsets/Variables.

Also not every system exist as a variable. Sometimes we need to bild it improvisional.

For example a Aleart LED if Aircraft climb above 20.000ft.
If these not exsit as a own variable then we could build it by create a config that read the current Altitude and simply say If >20000 then 1 else 0.
( I hope you understand).

In easy words... Tell us what aircraft and sim you use. Then advanced users of that aircraft can have a look.
AND.... Discord is mostly the better adress.
Here in Forum we solve technical stuff.... Aircraft related questions are better done on Discord !
Good Luck !
