GNS 430, 530, GPS 400 for A2A C182

[Indy511]

https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/518703-official-panel-configuration-thread/?page=4#comment-3780625

Here are the panel files for setting up the GNS 430, 530, Dual, GPS 400 in the A2A C182 panel using the C182 Aircraft Configurator_P3D app.

A2A182_RXPGNS_panel.zip

First things first. Backup original panel config files:
panel_default.cfg
panel_MINDSTAR_430.cfg
panel_MINDSTAR_530.cfg
panel_MINDSTAR_dual.cfg.

4 panel_MINDSTAR_***.cfg and panel_default.cfg files go in the A2A182 panel folder.

RealityXP.GNS.ini goes in the main aircraft folder; SimObjects\Airplanes\A2A_C182

Use C182 Aircraft Configurator_P3D app to install gauges. Choose the Mindstar selection 430, 530, both etc. Select default to install the RXP GPS400.

Incidentally you can use the C182 Aircraft Configurator_P3D app while the aircraft is loaded. Aircraft will reload after making your choice of Garmin unit.

COMING SOON... GNS, GTN Configurations for  the A2A 172, 182, & the 250 Comanche all compatible with the A2A Aircraft Configurator_P3D apps.

Very nice Bill, I have also made these edits to be able to use the A2A configurator to add the RXP v2 units. If I may be a nitpick, the values below make the units fit more precisely in the VC. This goes for all aircraft:

gauge00=rxpGNS2!GNS_530_1, 7,191,444,315
gauge00=rxpGNS2!GNS_430_2, 1, 3,456,188

LOL!  But two gauge00='s ???

It is "either 530 - or 430"

Edit:

I stand corrected..

Units = Plural .  I have almost duplicate VC entries in a  dual 530 over 430 panel:

gauge00=rxpGNS2!GNS_530_2, 1,191,456,320, TOGGLE_530
gauge01=rxpGNS2!GNS_430_1, 1,1,456,189, TOGGLE_430

Plus a dual stack pop-up:

[Window13]
size mm=400, 480
window_pos=0.79000,0.48000
window_size=0.20507,0.49275
visible=1
zorder=99

ident=15531
gauge00=rxpGNS2!GNS_530_2,0,0,100,62, TOGGLE_530    
gauge01=rxpGNS2!GNS_430_1,0,62,100,38, TOGGLE_430    

With these 5th parameters added to the RealityXP.GNS.ini file.
[GNS_430_1.TOGGLE_430]
popleft = 15531

[GNS_530_2.TOGGLE_530]
popleft = 15531

I meant these are the values for either a 530_1, 430_1 or both (in which case the second would be 430_2 or 530_2). In case both units are in one panel the second one would be gauge01 ofcourse. Thanks for pointing that out.
