Hi Pete and the gang, hoping you all might be able to help me out here. I've read through the tutorial material and done a forum search but I've not quite found the answer I'm looking for.
What I'd like to do
I have a single throttle quadrant for the Saitek Pro Flight. I understand the concept of compound button mapping and I would like to apply this to twin engine controls. Specifically: I wish to be able to control both engines throttles, props and mixtures when in mode 1, the left engine controls in mode 2 and the right engine controls in mode 3. I thought this might be a case of simply applying the relevant logic statements as per compound buttons but that doesn't appear to be the case.
i.e.
[Axes.Baron 58 - Twin Piston]
...
2=C(+0,8)0Z,256,F,65765,0,0,0
3=C(+0,8)0U,256,F,66291,0,0,0
4=C(+0.8)0V,256,F,66292,0,0,0
In this instance, button 8 represents the mode 1 detent of the control wheel on the back of the right hand grip. My plan was to then generate similar lines of code for "engine 1 prop, engine 1 mixture" etc. Unfortunately, this first stage in my testing rendered the axes inoperable suggesting I cocked up the syntax or that it simply isn't supported.
Any suggestions?
