    H5000 processor outputting Trim with incorrect channel id

    Not a bug in Expedition, rather in the H5000-processor but interesting nevertheless. When troubleshooting why Trim did not show up in Expedition, I realise that the processor was outputting Trim on the wrong channel. The GoFree specs says:

    Yaw has GoFree variable ID 122
    Pitch has GoFree variable ID 123

    However, I can see on websocket that Trim is being polled from channel 122. When changing the H5000_config.xml file row from:
    <map id_bg="123" id_exp="19" sysval="true" name="Trim" />

    to:
    <map id_bg="122" id_exp="19" sysval="true" name="Trim" />

    Trim shows up in Expedition as expected. 

    Expedition is 12.7.14 (but 12.8.12 would show same behavior) and the H5000 processor is running 2.0.45.0.34

    Anyone else seeing the same thing?

    It seems to vary on different H5s. Some seem to be 122 and other 123.

    Yes, I have heard of that before too.
