vSpeed callouts for IXEG 733

View File

Hello Captains!

I made a simple LUA-script for v-speed callouts.
It includes callouts for 80 knots, V1, Vr, V2 (V2 is optional) and positiv rate / gear up.

The script is tested on X-Plane 10.51 and X-Plane 11 on Windows 10.

Feel free to leave a comment if you liked the script (or not) :) 

Requirement:
- You will need FlyWithLua installed - http://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/files/file/17468-flywithlua-for-xp9-and-xp10/

Installation:
- Unzip the files in [X-Plane]\Resources\plugins\FlyWithLua\Scripts

You should get a structure something like this.

Settings:
Edit the IXEG_vSpeed.lua for the settings. 

Set to true to enable "V2" callout and false to disable. true and false have to be written with lowercase letters.
Enable_V2 = false

Set to true to enable "Positive rate/Gear up" callout and false to disable. true and false have to be written with lowercase letters.
EnablePosGearUp = true

Sync the First Officers speedbugs with what you set on Captain side. Default = false. true and false have to be written with lowercase letters.
SyncSpeedBugs = false

Change "SoundLevel" to adjust volume for the callouts. Adjust between 0.10 min - 1.00 max (default 0.55)
SoundLevel = 0.55
 

How to use:
This is how I use the bugs. It may not be correct compared to real procedures.

The required bugs you need to set for the call out to work is Bug_2 to V1 speed, Bug_3 to Vr speed, and set the MCP speed to V2 (if you use V2 callout).
You can set the other bugs to whatever you prefere.

Known bugs/limitations:
- Speed bugs can only be set on Captains side.

how do I edit for gear up? I just realised the calls weren't working as I had not set bugs correctly, only got the 80kts one.....

You will only get the "80 knots" callout if you dont set the bugs at all or not correctly.

So as a minimum you have to set BUG_2 to V1 speed

and BUG_3 to Vr speed.

Its very important that you use BUG_2 and BUG_3 for V1 and Vr. Dont mix with other bugs :) 

If you do that correctly you will get "Positive rate , gear up" callout.

You can find the v-speeds in your FMS when you have entered perfomance data etc.
