On your ProjectApollo MFD select option 'LGC'. You should see your LM gimbal angles on that page.

Just make sure the alignment is 'identical' for anything other than Apollo 9 LM free flight. Hit the 'REF' button to change your alignment option.

Later on, you'll need to do a IMU fine align. Hit the 'V42' button to get the fine align torques.

Yes, enter the numbers under LM O/I/M exactly

For example:
LM O/I/M: 300.42 194.16 359.71

Enter on the LGC:
R1 +30042
R2 +19416
R3 +35971

also dont worry if they are slightly changing as you put them in, your fine align will pick up the slack
