    Re: 747 Throttle Build... well sort of

    Ok quick question. I'm trying to program the Engine Cut off Switches of the PMDG 747 FS9 version to the T1 thru T4 buttons on my Saitek pro throttle. I'm using FSUIPC and creating mouse macros for each switch and have labeled them accordingly. I assigned cutoff switch number one to the T1 button. Tested it and it works. I assigned Cutoff switch number two to the T2 button on my throttle. Tested it and it only turns on Cutoff switch one. Did the same thing for 3 and four and for some reason, the mouse macro is only turning on cutoff switch number one. What gives??

    As requested by poster via PM please find photos ,everyone else please disregard!!
    Tried to send photos by PM but was unable to,so here are a couple.Originally planned as 737 but changed my mind to 747 hence colours /mcp/nose wheel etc,photo makes o/head angle look wrong but isn't in the flesh.

    regards
