C152 suction gauge

C152 suction gauge

The 152's small suction gauge: a black dial with its scale over the top, 3 to 7 in. Hg, the green band at the top of the arc, a white wedge needle and SUCTION under it. It reads the simulator's vacuum pressure.

Features

  • Scale over the top of the dial, 3 to 7 in. Hg, a mark every half inch (longer at the whole ones)
  • The 152's green band at the top of the arc
  • White wedge needle on the vacuum pressure, SUCTION lettering
  • Flag when the simulator gives no vacuum pressure
  • Round black case with its thin gray lip; lit by the panel as its other round gauges at night

Your aircraft: Fixed 152 scale and green band (3 to 7 in. Hg); the round vacuum / ammeter takes its range from the profile instead.

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

ValueMSFSX-Plane
Vacuum / suction (inHg)SUCTION PRESSURE (inHg)sim/cockpit/misc/vacuum

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.
