Building custom configurations for the simionic pfd / mfd

Hi,

I have just started using the simionic pfd and mfd software. Since there are very few pre-made configurations available I am trying to build a custom configuration for the Grand Caravan.

The config editor is mainly allowing input for the relevant gauges.

As an example, I can configure the ITT range as X - X °C / °F, then configure the four gauge zones (white, green, yellow, red) separately.

I am now wondering where exactly I can find those values in the MSFS files.

Looking at the .cfg files for the Grand Caravan I can for example find the “itt_peak_temperature” as “2000”. According to the documentation that’s “ITT in either °C or °F”… yeah, figured as much. Guessing it’ll be °F when we have a 2000° max.

However I don’t know where to even look for the settings of the G1000 gauges.
Is there a config file for those?
Has anyone else here built a custom config for the simionic displays before?

Thank you in advance!

Did you ever get this configured? I’m trying to do the same thing.

Hi there!
Sorry for the late reply, I have not been on the forums for a while.
I was not able to get it to work right. Unfortunately my ipad randomly died before I could dig much deeper into it.
