    @meh1951 you got to replace that by whatever the appropriate var for your hardware lever/switch/button is.
    This var just tells spad.next whether that button/switch of your hardware position is pressed or not - for instance.
    The key piece of information here is the PROP_PITCH2_SET (-25), that's the one that actually makes the lever move to the feather position in the game.

      @meh1951 for button 26 try to setup the following

      Button Pressed -> Send PROP_PITCH1_SET - Event (-25) for Left Prop

      For whatever the other button used for right prop set the following

      Button Pressed -> Send PROP_PITCH2_SET - Event (-25) for Right Prop

      The condition levers you got to create those events listed above first

      Regards,

          @meh1951 how are controlling the lever? Are you using one of the Bravo axis for that?

          Show a printscreen of the Spad.Next setup you have for controlling the lever.

          As per the printscreen you have sent before I guess your setup will be something like

          LOCAL: search for RX_AXIS in the Bravo device list
          18fed926-b339-4a8a-a236-2cdad4e128b5-image.png

          The condition lever setup
          b2ca05d8-af92-4548-8b20-4f8f135aa769-image.png

          Cut Off setup
          cb762f32-03e7-4fa9-ac37-3f04a95026cf-image.png

          If you are going to use a different axis just replace the RX_AXIS by the correct axis name

          There will be 3 entries for each lever

          0 - 25 Cut Off
          26 - 73 Low Idle
          75 - 100 High Idle

          You may change these range values to whatever range is best for you.

          Regards,

          Anderson

                No I still have problems.
                Handle still not moving and Looping

                Just realized I am getting 0 and 1 in the data monitor not 0 to 100 for the TURN ENG CONDITION LEVER

                Failed again. Been working on this way to long.

                  @meh1951 you are almost there, notice you have not activated the repeat feature

                  866dbfc4-6d55-401d-9419-cd71403c2d8f-image.png

                  It should be ON

                  You also can simplify the evaluation code by replacing the following line

                            @meh1951 yes, scripted event window should look like this

                            4826de71-06b1-4448-be27-b83bbefe5bae-image.png

                            Notice the first condition line just evaluates the lever position.

                                  @meh1951 correct. make sure repeat ON. If you want it to be exactly as the example I sent you use the is in range option for evaluating the axis value.

                                      @meh1951 it looks okay, notice you set range 0 thru 15 for Cut Off and 26 thru 75 for Low Idle, there's a gap between 16 thru 25. Recommend you change the Low Idle range to 16 thru 75.

                                      Let me know if it works.(It should)

                                        Changed the range still does not work.

                                        The logic works but the Levers never move
