AutoThrottle function in NG737

The Auto Throttle switch on the MCP of the 737NG series will not respond to the button on my CH Productd yoke dedicated to the A/T keybord assignment of Shift+R....this button arms and disarms the A/T switch on the default Boeing 737. It's a little awkward when landing not having the use of the button on the yoke respond to disarming the A/T. Does anyone know how to resolve this issue?Thanks,Irv Strongin

You can program in keystrokes for the autothrottle by going to the PMDG menu, and you can even set it to be the same as the FS9 command.You can find a short guide on interfacing buttons and axes to the PMDG at http://www.metzair.com/download/ExternalControls.pdfBest wishes.

Tim,First of all, I want to tell you what a great product the NG737 is.Secondly, I did order the registration for the fsuipc and will attempt to set up my CH products yoke. Could you do me one favor and explain what logging means in the context of fsupic?Thanks,Irv Strongin
