Prop De-Ice
-
@jim33152 I have mine set in spad like this:
Set Prop Deice Switch:1 to 1
Set LVAR:DEICE_PROPELLER_1 to 1
send B:DEICE_Propeller_1_Set-Event(1)You must manually add the B data before: in spad, on left column press the + symbol, then press CLIENT EVENTS. Now click on Add client event: in name enter DEICE_Propeller_1_Set and in Control Event ID enter this: B:DEICE_Propeller_1_Set
then press OK.Now you can add that using the add event/add action/send simulation event and there you will find the B:DEICE_Propeller_1_Set variable. In the Static value write 1 and you are done.

For anyone interested, with the last updated version of SPAD, B vars are no longer supported, so the previous code will not work.
I have done the same solution as @jim33152 proposed, using vjoy in spad.next can move the switch ---> after installing vjoy, run it, launch MSFS and in options go to Controls, there you will find your VJoy, then assign the native binding for the Propeller Deice to a joystick button in Vjoy.
Finally in Spad, click on Add Event/button pressed/Advanced/Virtual Joystick and choose your Vjoy (probably it would be vJoy #1), for action choose "Press/release a button" and in "target" choose the same virtual joystick button that you chose in the general control options in MSFS for the Prop Deice switch. That is my workaround to assign this switch to a hardware button. The switch now is moving and the green light is shown.
Cheers.
