First , thanks for such a speedy reply, if only everything in life could be as good. Secondly, my apologies for not posting in the correct place. Just so I don't get it wrong in the future where should it have been?

I have searched all the documentation that downloads with versions 4. 5, 6 and 7 of FSUIPC but nowhere can I find the offsets for the rudder and aileron trims. The offset for elevator trim and in conjunction with 'trim set' works a treat. Without the offsets for the rudder and aileron trims the 'trim set' command works just once and that's it. I am in no way a programmer but I am a bit of a dinosaur and so any help in simple English would be very much appreciated.
Stay safe

Hi Roman, John.
Thanks so much it works a treat. I would never have found a solution via the 'Buttons and Switches' menu interface.
The only time that I dabbled with programming was to write a simple maths tutorial in Sinclair BASIC for a ZX Spectrum (that dates me).Now I can get back to setting up the rest of the panel.
Thanks again

Hi John
Attached is what I hope is a copy of the correct file. I am beginning to think that people are going to have to have the patience of a saint while leading me through my forays into FSUIPC.

As a first post I hope that I am using the correct part of the forum.
I am using P3D v 4.5.12.30293 with FSUIPC v5.151.
A while ago I built a panel to go along with my Saitek radio and multi panel. It was a modest affair as I am not an electronics or programming buff. It consisted of switches, rotary encoders and a 4 position rotary switch to enhance my single engine Cessna immersion. These were all connected to a Leo Bodnar BU0836X and BBI-32 boards. All worked fine. Despite my age my simming experience is of newbie standard but I look to the future.
That being the case I decided to rebuild the panel to facilitate a twin engine a/c. adding a few more switches and encoders and a second rotary switch.These two switches are for operating the magnetos. I soon found that assigning 'MAGNETO' in the Buttons + Switches to one of the switches in fact operated both magnetos. Easily fixed; but no.
Magneto 1 assigned to 'MAGNETO 1 - OFF - RIGHT - LEFT - BOTH'.In operation the following happens
going up going down
switch pos actual switch pos actual
OFF OFF BOTH BOTH
RIGHT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT
LEFT BOTH RIGHT OFF
BOTH BOTH OFF OFFThis happens for both magnetos although they are at least operating independently.
I have read the FSUIPC manual but cannot find where I've gone wrong or what I've omitted.
Having mentioned the manual, in the comprehensive and no doubt complete list of controls most are self explanitary some are not, e.g. Pitot heat on ,and pitot heat off are obvious: but what is pitot heat set? A list of what all these controls actually do would be most helpful to me and I'm sure to many others.
Any help will be most appreciated.
Thanks Thomas,
I hope that I am right in uploading the 2 files or should I have copied and paste them into the post. I'm SO new to all of this.
Thanks
Bob
