Fuel Valve

[Hano]

Hi,

I want to switch the fuelvalve of the Cessna 152 by a switch. If I use the control "Toggle Fuel Valve Eng 1" I can only toggle the fuel valve. I want it to be "ON" in one switch position and to be "Off" in the other switch position. Any ideas?

Thx

Hano

There are a couple of things you can try:

1. Switch to using the control Set Fuel Valve Eng1 with a parameter of 1 for on or 0 for off

2. If there is an offset that holds the current state of the fuel valve, you can add an offset condition to the assignments based upon that offset (see the Advanced User guide on offset conditions). You can try with offset 0x3590 (GENERAL ENG FUEL VALVE:1) - this seems to work for some aircraft but not all. Alternatively, if there is an lvar that holds the current state of the fuel valve, you can add that lvar to an offset and then add an offset condition to that lvar offset.
