Cheers everyone,

 

this is probably not a support question but rather a "save my sanity" request... I have recently switched to a new PC and since then I can't figure out anymore how to assign the FLC function of the Working Title G1000 NXi via AAO. I had this working since I got AAO but I can't figure it out. There are various FLC and Speed Hold settings but... 🤷‍♂️ On top of that I was using a slightly older version of AAO where the settings were organized differently. 

 

Can anyone help me with this one?

 

Thank you 😃

Same problem here with the Kodiak...  So far I tried all settings, can't get FLC to work.

Anyone ?

Thanks a lot !!

I only know these scripts for FLC:

Default (this is what the Kodiak seems to use):
1 (>K:FLIGHT_LEVEL_CHANGE) (A:AIRSPEED INDICATED, Knots) (>K:AP_SPD_VAR_SET)
State variable: (A:AUTOPILOT FLIGHT LEVEL CHANGE, Bool)

WT CJ4
1 (>H:WT_CJ4_AP_FLC_PRESSED, Number) (A:AIRSPEED INDICATED, Knots) (>K:AP_SPD_VAR_SET)
State variable: (A:AUTOPILOT FLIGHT LEVEL CHANGE, Bool)

And there is an HVar (>H:#KEY_PREFIX#_FMC_1_AP_FLCH) . I found two implementations of this:
1 (>H:B747_8_FMC_1_AP_FLCH, Number) 
1 (>H:AS01B_FMC_1_AP_FLCH, Number)
State variable (L:AP_FLCH_ACTIVE, Bool)

Wow, that was a fast response ! 👍

I've been a FSUIC user since years with various Flightsims but decided to try AAO two days ago. Bought it yesterday and must say, it is way more intuitive with its graphical interface instead of entering numbers ! I'm glad I managed to program most controls for 2 planes so far. Some more to go...

For the scripting stuff, I will have a deeper look into the manual and then I will try your suggestions. I also found an excellent german manual on the internet that will help with this too.

For now, as we say here:

Vielen Dank !!            😎

And have nice day !

After reading through the Scripting chapter of AAO and the RPN scripting chapter in the SDK, I understand what's happening in

1 (>K:FLIGHT_LEVEL_CHANGE) (A:AIRSPEED INDICATED, Knots) (>K:AP_SPD_VAR_SET)

when pressing the flight level change button, the momentary airspeed will be set in the autopilot.

What I don't understand so far is the part:

State variable: (A:AUTOPILOT FLIGHT LEVEL CHANGE, Bool)

When I enter the part in brackets into the Scipt editor, I get the green light,so the code is ok. But why is it needed ?

Please enlighten me, and thanks for your patience !

It isn't "needed" for anything. It is the state variable. If you want to know if FLC is on or off, this is the variable to read. For example if you have a StreamDeck button or LED that should turn on when FLC is active.

Ah, I see ! I prefer understanding what happens in a script than simply copying it.

Thanks for your explanation, you helped a lot 👍
