Describe the bug

I see at least 3 VARs that aren't updating in Spad.Next, even though I believe they should as per the documentation: A32NX_RADAR_GCS_AUTO, A32NX_RADAR_MULTISCAN_AUTO and XMLVAR_AUTO.

Expected behavior

As I flick the switches / dial the knobs, I'd expect these variables to update. Also, setting these LVARs should have an effect on the switches on the fligthdeck.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Start the data monitor in Spad.Next
  2. Flick the switches / dial the knobs

None of these functions are implemented, nor can they be implemented currently so this is unlikely to be resolved for some time, unless somebody really wants to hook inop variables to the buttons/dials.

ferryvanaesch commented 3 years ago

That's fair, except for I believe XMLVAR_AUTO: shouldn't that one flick the ATC switch between Standby, Auto and On?

tracernz commented 3 years ago

Good point. That one is actually in I var, not an L var: I:XMLVAR_Auto. Not sure if SPAD can access I vars?

I'm not 100% sure, have a look at the picture. Screenshot 2021-07-02 111409

Hi all, did someone found how to use the ATC STDBY/AUTO/ON switch with SPAD.NEXT ? looks related to this XMLVAR_AUTO variable having no effect
