Describe the bug

Read simvar in unable. I'm using simconnect directly and i got error like: Error add SimVar ( A32NX.FCU_LOC_MODE_ACTIVE ) in AddToDataDefinition :
Error add SimVar ( A32NX_AUTOPILOT_HEADING_SELECTED ) in AddToDataDefinition : SIMCONNECT_EXCEPTION_NAME_UNRECOGNIZED. Please control name ( A32NX_AUTOPILOT_HEADING_SELECTED ) and unit ( Number ) I tried with many variations like: A32NX_AUTOPILOT_HEADING_SELECTED A32NX.AUTOPILOT_HEADING_SELECTED A32NX AUTOPILOT HEADING SELECTED A32NX.AUTOPILOT HEADING SELECTED A32NX. AUTOPILOT HEADING SELECTED

i tried to use simvars from here: https://github.com/flybywiresim/a32nx/blob/experimental/docs/a320-simvars.md

Local variables cannot be read via SimConnect. That is a limitation of the SimConnect API we cannot control. Please open a ticket on MSFS.
