We finally created a full switch panel for the Cessna 172 in P3D. We were able to program all the switches correctly. One last step: Most of the time, the switches on the physical panel will not be synchronized with the simulated aircraft on startup. For example, the Master ALT switch on the physical panel is off while the Master ALT is ON in the simulated aircraft. That causes a "reverse" effect and the switches are not at the same value when we move the physical switch. Would someone help me write a small script to check for the value of the simulated switch position before moving the physical switch. For example: 1. The simulated Master ALT in ON and the physical switch is OFF. The 2 values are not equal therefore the simulated switch will not move when I move the physical switch. 2. Now the 2 switches have the same value (ON) therefore the simulated switch will move when the physical switch is moved. Thanks

John It works! AWESOME!!! Thanks. Ray

John I found the variable: L:ASD_C172SP_SWITCH_AVIONICS_L=Set Now, what do I do with it? Thanks

John Thanks again for the quick reply. I figured all the offsets except for the Avionics Bus 1. I would like to add a free offset (for example 1012) to the A:CIRCUIT SWITCH ON:24 and another one to A:CIRCUIT SWITCH OFF:? I looked in the Advanced user guide and this forum and could not find an answer. Can you please explain how to assign a free offset to that Cessna 172 G1000 Carenado in P3D v5 to Avionics Bus 1. Thanks again

John Thank you for your reply. I applied your instructions and it works great for the Master Battery but I am having difficulty finding the correct offsets for the other switches. I am using the Cessna 172 with G 1000 from Carenado this time. I used offset 281C for the Master Bat and it works great. (I found it in the Offset Status pdf) However I could not find one for the Master ALT, and I used 3102 for the Avionics Bus 1 and 3103 for Bus 2 without success. How can I search from inside the sim for the correct offset when I move a switch? Thanks Ray

I built a box to attach to my Cessna 172 (A2A) sim in P3D v5. I am using FSUIPC6. It has the ignition, Master ALT, Master BAT, all the lights and pitot and the Avionics switches. I created 6 macros to turn the Master ALT, Master BAT and Avionics switches ON and OFF. Problem: It works great as long as the switches on the sim are at the same position as the switches on the box. If the switch on the sim is on a different position than the switch on the box, moving the switch on the box produces the opposite result. For example: If the Avionics switch on the sim and the box are in the same position, it works like a charm. If they are opposite in the sim and the box, they work in reverse: I flick the box Avionics OFF and it flicks the Avionics switch in the sim to ON and vice versa. Is there a way to "synchronize" the position of the sim Avionics switch with the current position of the Avionics on the box? Thanks
