FSX SE, FS labs A320 with TCA thrust quadrant interface

[JTT]

I am unable to get my TCA quadrants master switches and or engine mode selector to function correctly. I am not sure which selections to use to get the correct response from flight sim.

I don't know if the FSL A320 responds to the normal FSX controls. Have you checked your controls with a default aircraft? That's the first thing to do.

The more sophisticated add-on aircraft tend to supplant the systems in the flight sim with their own, for added realism rather than the more generic treatment. As a result some of the regular controls simply don't work.

If you prove to yourself that your controls are okay (by checking on a default aircraft), then the next step is to find out what works with your choice of add-on aircraft. It might be that you have to use Mouse Macros or L:Vars (local panel variables).

I think the FSLabs Axxx series of aircraft have re-purposed the rotor brake control with various parameters for different functions. There is plenty of information on how to use these aircraft with FSUIPC over on the fslabs forums.
