PMDG737 NGXu - APU on and start

[gasher9999 1]

Hi, 

I've been trying to combine two functions to one switch on Saitek Switch Panel to be able to turn on and start the APU in my NGXu. This is probably my 500th attempt. What am I doing wrong? 

Using the latest LINDA, FSUIPC (reg) and latest 737NGXu profile.

Any help would be much appreciated.

function NGX_APU_on ()
        ipc.control(PMDGBaseVar+118, PMDG_ClkL)
        ipc.sleep(50)
        NGX_APU_start()
        ipc.control(PMDGBaseVar+118, PMDG_ClkL)
        NGX_APU_show()

Thanks,

Glenn Asher

Hello,

 

that is, because things are not as easy as they seem 😉

 

On isse is, that you probably have now two functions named NGX_APU_on (). Only one is working then. Be sure to name them differently.

 

If this is not the case:

You could probably use the already existing functions ad combine them:

 

function NGX_start_and_on ()
    NGX_APU_on ()
    ipc.sleep(300)
    NGX_APU_start()
end

 

However, I haven't tested this, but should work

That worked, thank-you so much Guenter.😀
