Fenix A320: Problem programming FCU Pull Button Commands (Compound Button Condition, using Presets)

Dear Community,

I am having an issue, where I am unable to map "pull commands" for the FCU buttons on the Fenix A320 to joystick buttons (ie. Pull Heading select button).

I am trying to achieve this using compound button conditions and presests:

  • I am using the registred (paid) version of FSUIPC 7.3.21
  • Button 3, Joystick B should act as a modifier (ie. like a shift key, while held down)
  • Pushing the same buttons as I have assigned on Joystick C for the "Push commands" of the respective FCU button (ie. push heading select button), while the modifier is being held down, should trigger the pull command (ie. pull Heading select button)
  • The inoperative commands are marked red below
  • Strangely enough, I was able to achieve success in mapping the FCU altitude scale buttons as compound conditions using the same methodology (marked green below)
  • All blue marked commands also work without issues
  • Hardware wise, I am using a VIRPIL VPC MT-50CM2 (Throttle) and a VIRPIL WarBRD (Stick) with a Warthog grip
  • The "Paddle switch" on the Joystick (B,3) should act as a "shift key"

Any pointers, where the problem might lie is appreciated!

If the moderators see fit, the topic can remain otherwise it may, of  course be deleted.

Kind regards, Adrian
