Special A2A Accumsim Progamming

[TynMahn]

I'm trying to figure out how to assign the buttons on my Saitek FIP to change the fuel tanks in the C182 from A2A. The regular Fuel_Select_Set from the list doesn't seem to work.

This makes me think it is one of those stupid special A2A events.

Do I have to buy and install FSUIPC to make this work or is there some way to do it with just SPAD.next?

You will need to use LVAR for the C182 to select the tank.

See here for a list of the LVAR: http://www.fsgs.com/wiki/LVAR_SUPPORT#a2a

I see the FSelect182.... L VAR there in that list, but isn't that just the "output" L Var (the one that tells the switch which way to point) and not the "event" L Var (the one that tells the simulator which tank to select)? And, even if it is the correct LVar, How do I assign it to one of the FIP buttons?

When I go to bind an event to the button, it opens a windows with a bunch of options, "SimConnect" "some 737, 777, etc". There are NO LVARs in that list, even when I try to make sure that the LVAR box is checked and there doesn't seem to be a way to enter a custom "event" into the box manually.
