Thought I would start a new thread, since the original discussion was irrelevant.

In order for my throttle to work properly with the FCU, I need to assign a second offset to each throttle (analog). In the case of the Airbus, this is needed to set the Gates.

Such as.

Throttle 1. 88C & 3330
Throttle 2. 924 & 3332
Throttle 3. 9BC & 3334
Throttle 4. A54 & 3336

I would think this would also be so, with the B737

Not familiar with offsets 3330 thru 3336.

They are in Peter Dowsons Table of Offsets.

You probably know this.... These values of the throttle output go to the engines
directly.

Throttle 1. 88C
Throttle 2. 924
Throttle 3. 9BC
Throttle 4. A54

These are the physical Axis positions of the throttle.

Throttle 1. 3330
Throttle 2. 3332
Throttle 3. 3334
Throttle 4. 3336

Enrico, helped me understand how this works.

Matt,

The way I understand things, 3330-3336 are intended for analog joystick inputs.
If not inhibited by setting in 301A, PM sets throttle position (using 88C, etc)

You will need to explain what you want to achieve with with those offsets.
