Dear Pete, please allow a question from a newbie, who is still confused after reading the advanced FSUIPC user guide thrice. I am building a small cockpit, based on a Joywarrior chip, with some mechanical on-off switches. I recognize that some FS2004 controls, e.g. TOGGLE_FUEL_VALVE_ENG1, are sometimes considered by FS2004 as "on", sometimes as "off", after starting FS, even when my switch, e.g. j2b4, is in the mechanical "off"-position - due to effects I do not know. Thus, I tried to use FSUIPC to always enforce an "off" value when starting up FS. From reading the advanced user guide, I thought, an InitialButton command would do the job, however from looking in the manual I do not understand the concept of setting an defined initial value to a button connected to a TOGGLE-type control, as FSUIPC's InitialButton seems not to allow to define a 0 or 1 for "off" or "on". So please, how do I set an initial "on" or "off" value to a toggle-type control like e.g. 66494 ? P.S. Thanks for your great work and kind assistance, and happy Xmas. Robert S., Berlin, Germany
