October 9, 20223 yr The BAE 146 autopilot has GLS and V/L buttons, but I have not been able to find event codes other than the ones provided by Mobil flight. I am currently using A&O Demo to check out the various features, and I don't see any reference to these two events. How does A&O access these two events? thanks .

I am currently using A&O Demo to check out the various features, and I don't see any reference to these two events. How does A&O access these two events? thanks . I am not familiar with Mobiflight - what "event codes" were you given? Are those LVars, HVars, BVars - ?? AAO doesn't need to "know" a simulator asset in advance. If you know the name and type of the variable or event you can just type it into an RPN script. As far as I remember, the JF 146 uses LVars to control the buttons and switches. In this case that would be (L:MCP_Mode_GSL, Number) and (L:MCP_Mode_VL, Number) Wrapped in RPN scripts: 1·(>L:MCP_Mode_GSL,·Number) 1·(>L:MCP_Mode_VL,·Number) (you can use (L:MCP_Mode_ALT, Number) to check, that one always works. GSL/VL don't seem to turn on just like that.) There are several ways to find those LVars By asking the aircraft developer for a documentation of how to access the buttons and switches in the VC that he made In AAO: "Scripting->Read LVars from sim" will acquire all visible LVars and you can access them in AAO when assigning buttons. "Visibile" means, that you should click on the desired buttons first, to make sure that the LVars are instantiated in MSFS. This only works for aircraft that actually use LVars. In MSFS developer mode "Windows->Behaviors" In the behavior definition file of the plane (\Community\justflight-aircraft-146\SimObjects\Airplanes\JF_146_100\model\JF_146_100_VC.xml) Edited October 9, 20223 yr by Lorby_SI LORBY-SI
October 9, 20223 yr Author Thank you. Your pointing me to the AaO script read allowed me to find the event code for one of the two buttons. Your program is so full of features that's hard for a new person to figure it out, though it gets easier. The 20 minutes demo limit was not enough to continue with the other buttons, but I've seen enough to make me purchase it. tc
