Variants
C152 stylev1.0
This instrument; it appears in the picker as the FACE variant of Oil temp / press (single-engine aircraft only)
Picker: Oil temp / press, FACE: C152 style
Features
- OIL TEMP dial numbered at the start of the green band and the red line
- OIL PRESS dial numbered every 20 or 50 PSI
- Muted printed arcs and red lines from the profile
- Red X over the strip when oil temperature or pressure is missing or stale
- Realistic needles (Settings): spring and vibration
- Night lighting: the face takes the panel's red flood light, the glareshield's warm light from above (stronger for instruments higher on the page) and its own light, a lamp hidden at the top of the case lighting the dial downward (Settings > Dimmers: Red flood light, Glareshield, Instruments (analog))
Your aircraft: Scales and markings from the profile. Engine 1 only: not offered in the picker on twins. A generic profile (an aircraft the Hub doesn't know) gets wide default scales with no bands or red lines.
On the iPad
- No knobs: a tap asks to change the instrument
Settings
- Global: Realistic needles
Simulator data
What the Hub reads from the simulator for this instrument, and what the instrument sends back. Names are the simulators' own: MSFS SimVars and events, X-Plane datarefs and commands.
Reads
| Value | MSFS | X-Plane |
|---|---|---|
| Oil temperature, engine 1 (degF) | GENERAL ENG OIL TEMPERATURE:1 (fahrenheit) | sim/cockpit2/engine/indicators/oil_temperature_deg_C[0]sim/aircraft/engine/acf_max_OILT |
| Oil pressure, engine 1 (psi) | GENERAL ENG OIL PRESSURE:1 (psi) | sim/cockpit2/engine/indicators/oil_pressure_psi[0] |
Add-on aircraft with their own systems may use other variables; the Hub reads the standard ones.
Changes
The instrument's version counts what its faces share (the case, the mechanism, the data, the sounds); a face's own version counts that face alone.
