Thank you, I will look at these-

I am trying to use available IEs to bind a virtual intercooler door on my plane to a hardware switch. The virtual intercooler control is a three position switch, where moving the switch in one direction opens the intercooler, moving it the opposite direction closes it, and releasing it altogether moves the switch to the center which has a null value (the intercooler doors remain where they were). The IEs that are available are listed as: INSTRUMENT_SWITCH_intercoolervis_Inc INSTRUMENT_SWITCH_intercoolervis_Dec INSTRUMENT_SWITCH_intercoolervis_Toggle INSTRUMENT_SWITCH_intercoolervis_Set I have successfully used other IEs that have similar names to bind my cowl flaps and water methanol injection switch. But when I try to bind the above IEs in exactly the same manner in AAO, I get nothing ,except the the little green light on the Assigned Buttons window does light up when I press my assigned key. The virtual control, however, does not move in any way. Why should there be a difference with these IEs? What might I try to get this to work? Chris

B:INSTRUMENT_SWITCH_Waterinjection_Set_Toggle - this did the trick, Thank you!

So sorry, It is an IE- Can I make a script from an IE?

I am attempting to create a toggle switch for a water injection feature on the Aeroplane heaven P-47. I suspect I will need to create a script. I searched other posts about scripting and found this: Make sure that AAO is connected to the sim and that you are sitting in the cockpit Open "Scripting->Script Editor" Copy and paste my code above into the big white box Use the "Test" button to see if it works Enter a "Title" for the script at the top and select a group, for example "Scripts". (you can create your own groups with the "Manage Script Groups" button. Press "Save as new" Open your button definition Delete the Key Up Open the Key Down selection, scroll down to the group that you've selected for the script, open the group, doubleclick on the title of your script So the problem I have remaining is what kind of syntax/structure I need to include in my script. I have never built a script before. The event I am using is INSTRUMENT_SWITCH_Waterinjection_Set Can someone offer a suggestion as to what my script for a toggle (1st press water injection ON, 2nd press water injection OFF) might look like? Many thanks in advance, Chris

I found the gray question mark to access the pdf, but nothing happens when I click it? UPDATE: nevermind and thank you, I found a pdf of the manual I can use, ver. 4.5.5. Thank you again for your help- Chris

THAT WORKED!!!! 🤩 Thank you!!! Chris

Thank you very much for responding, I assigned the following: IE:INSTRUMENT_LEVER_boost_control. I entered it in the Enter Variable field of the Change Axis Assignment window of AAO. I believe this is referred to as an Input Event (it is the onlything I can enter that makes the virtual lever move at all). I can't post an image but the values ranges are as follows Filter =1 "Prog" is ticked Axis Min =-16838 Axis Max = 16383 Shift = 0 Update Value = Continuously Roundings = Int

Hello gents, I am new to AAO and am attempting my first binding. My first goal is to assign a physical axis (Saitek Throttle Quadrant lever) to the turbocharger lever found in the Aeroplane Heaven P-47D (which has no in-sim binding). Thus far, I have managed to bind the two, but strangely enough, when I move the physical axis on the Saitek, instead of a smooth response from "off" to "full", I get an on/off style of response in roughly the middle of the lever's throw instead, i.e., I move the physical lever a ways and the virtual lever snaps from one end of it’s travel to another. No in-between. This is not what I want. Can anyone more familiar with AAO give any helpful pointers? (For clarity, the turbo lever on the P-47 is a proportional one, the more or less it is advanced, the more or less boost the engine receives). Many thanks in advance- Chris
