Window Heat

[kingm56]

Sir,

Is there a control or offset to manipulate the window heat (787 and 747)?  The option is available via MSFS control options; so, I'm hoping there's a control I'm missing.

The only ones that I can think of that may work would be the windshield ones:
    Windshield Deice Off / On / Set / Toggle
Did you try them? You can also check the controls list document document (Controls List for MSFS Build 999.txt) in your FSUIPC7 documents folder for a full list ov available controls.

Note that not all internal controls have been exposed by SimConnect and so may not be available. To see what control is being used for a specific function, you can turn on logging for events, open the FSUIPC logging console and see what events, if any, you see when you manipulate that function in the aircraft. If any events are logged, you can assign to those. If you don't see anything logged, you can also try listing the available lvars (from the Add-ons->WASM->List Lvars menu item) to see if any of them look relevant. If you see one that looks related to the function you want to assign, you can try changing its value to see if it has any affect, and if so you can use that.

Alternatively, if its only available in MSFS, then you can always assign there.
