Binding for STBY ALT

[meh1951]

Is there a binding in MSFS2020 for the STBY ALT?

Not in MSFS2020.
Need external control mapper software like AAO or FSUIPC
The switch is mapped by (L:BKSQ_standbyAlternatorSwitch, bool)

This works for animation and function.

@jbbz
So does that mean that ASOBO would have to expose a binding for it?

@meh1951 I will explain assuming that you are beginner on custom mapping to external controls. Apologies if too simple.
(1) The sim as delivered by Asobo has quite a large number of built-in control mappings that can be mapped to external controls using the default controls mapper. Large number but not everything that a aircraft designer might implement.
(2) When aircraft designer creates panel switch like Standby Alternator that does not map to anything in the default list these switches can be controlled with the mouse. In addition due to the demand of customers including cockpit builders, creators sometimes include a custom variable to control.
(3) The BSQR Bonanza has such variables for some but not all of the custom switches.
(4) To map one of these custom variables requires the use of third party utility. I use one called Lorby's AAO. Others are FSUIP and SPAD.Next. None of these are free and they all have a learning curve to master. There are forums where users trade definitions for popular aircraft. Using google you can find the web sites and decide which one you like. Or you can use the mouse for any switch not supported by default Asobo mappings.
