So Sorry for the 2nd question of the day but This is the last 2 buttons I need to finish the panels page of my C-152 before attempting to learn how to map the radios 😞 (God Help Me)

I am having some success with this but it seems to be acting a little strange and I don't know enough about the scripting yet to locate the issue. 

I am trying to increase the carb heat by 5% at a time with each button press using an event button. 

(IE:DEICE_ENGINE_1) 0.05 + 1 min (>IE:DEICE_ENGINE_1) 

This pulls the lever out 5% on the first press as I want it to.... but then on the second press it comes all the way out to 100% 

 

Thanks and sorry to be a pain, I will pick this up I'm sure. 

IEs are tricky that way. In many cases, the value you read from an IE is different from the value that you write to it. Which is another reason why I prefer using them as BVars instead.

In this case, when you read the IE you get a value from 0 to 16384 - like a normal event axis. But what you need to write to it is a percentage, 0.0 - 1.0. Observe the IE in the AAO dialog, you will see the values that it yields.

So, you would have to apply some math to this:

(IE:DEICE_ENGINE_1) 16384 / 0.05 + 1 min (>IE:DEICE_ENGINE_1) 

Or... use
1·(>B:DEICE_ENGINE_1_Inc)
1·(>B:DEICE_ENGINE_1_Dec)
instead, which you can assign directly in the StreamDeck actions (event type dropdown has a native B: option too)
