Sorted, thanks for the jolt Pete, for this old dog rolling over and learning a new trick was something I wasn't really wanting to do, but I got there :)
Code for any one else with the AS Twin Otter
-- 1 = Starter L On -- 2 = Starter L Off -- 3 = Starter R On -- 4 = Starter R Off -- Set to Zero ipc.writeLvar("L:STARTER",0) -- Starter L On if ipcPARAM == 1 then dh6_starter = "L:starter" val = 0 if ipc.readLvar(dh6_starter) == 0 then val = 1 end ipc.writeLvar(dh6_starter, val) ipc.writeLvar("L:CAT_SWITCH_ON", 1) -- Starter L Off elseif ipcPARAM == 2 then dh6_starter = "L:starter" val = 0 if ipc.readLvar(dh6_starter) == 1 then val = 0 end ipc.writeLvar(dh6_starter, val) ipc.writeLvar("L:CAT_SWITCH_ON", 2) -- Starter R On elseif ipcPARAM == 3 then dh6_starter = "L:starter" val = 2 if ipc.readLvar(dh6_starter) == 0 then val = 3 end ipc.writeLvar(dh6_starter, val) ipc.writeLvar("L:CAT_SWITCH_ON", 3) -- Starter R Off elseif ipcPARAM == 4 then dh6_starter = "L:starter" val = 3 if ipc.readLvar(dh6_starter) == 3 then val = 4 end ipc.writeLvar(Cat_starter, val) ipc.writeLvar("L:CAT_SWITCH_ON", 4) end

Thanks Pete I will give it a go, who said FS was a hobby, it's more like a non payed full time job :wink:
Regards

Hi folks I will paste what I have posted over at the AS forums hoping some kind soul has an answer :)
To cut a long story short. All my sim'ing is controlled by hardware switch panels and BU0836X controllers via FSUIPC registered. The one aircraft I have trouble with is the AS Twotter and the starter switch.
clicking on the switch with the mouse delivers a single "Toggle_Starter1" or "Toggle_Starter2" command as per normal.
If I run through FSUIPC I get a double command on each action as shown below hence no engine start. Thinking it may be a fsuipc control error I set up a keyboard key press in the main FSX config but I get the same result a double input.

I have tried to make a macro but it does not seem to be a compatible function.
If someone has any clues or has come up against this and cured it I would love your input.
Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.
