External Power

Hello Team, I am trying to use the EXTERNAL POWER AVAILABLE boolean variable
to know if an external power source is connected to the aircraft, in order to
light up the AVAIL light on my panel. What I see is that it is always true. It
is the same for the EXTERNAL POWER CONNECTION ON variable. Is there a way to
know if an external power source is actually connected to the aircraft?

Hi, You can use the “INTERACTIVE POINT OPEN:” for the gpu it’s the
“INTERACTIVE POINT TYPE: 4” it’s defined in the “flight_model.cfg” to find the
number. ex : “INTERACTIVE POINT OPEN:10”, “Percent Over 100” == 1 gpu is
connected see :
