PMDG B737 AFDS Light Test Switch (SOLVED)

Post by Wardie »

Please could someone tell me the VAR number to assign to the B737 PMDG AFDS test switch. This is the switch to check that the A/P, A/T and FMC recall switch lights are working. I have scrolled up and down the script trying many possibilities but cannot find the right one. Many thanks in advance!

Hi
I believe it is 2369 for Captains and 2378 for First Officers.
Regards.

Hi, thanks for such a quick reply, script reads "Var 2369, name CPT_DISENGAGE, static" Tried it but no luck, still no test lights.......

Do you have the switch connected to a MASTER card that is configured with IDX 31 and to input 21 and 22. Change if necessay

Var 2369, name CPT_DISENGAGE, static

Var 0510, name sCPT_UP_TEST, Link IOCARD_SW, Device 31, Input 21
{
IF &sCPT_UP_TEST = 1
{
&CPT_DISENGAGE = 0
}
ELSE
{
&CPT_DISENGAGE = 1
}
}

Var 0511, name sCPT_DOWN_TEST, Link IOCARD_SW, Device 31, Input 22
{
IF &sCPT_DOWN_TEST = 1
{
&CPT_DISENGAGE = 2
}
ELSE
{
&CPT_DISENGAGE = 1
}
}
