    Should be possible. The quickest way to snoop out those is using DatataRefTool by toggling on and off and seeing what changes and then just implement the annunciators into a start event  or for the LED of a switch . You will have to probably uncheck the "monitor dre private datarefs" checkbox in GIT while you use DRT.

    IXEG always uses _ann for annunciators so that will cut thee list of values you need to filter through. DRT is nice in that as a dataref gets stale(no change) it starts to fade back to the default color.

    Are you trying to do this on a DIO or  something else?

    If you can't find the datarefs you need I could possibly help identify them but you would need to implement them.

    Try these:

    ixeg/733/hydraulics/hyd_eng1_lowpress_ann  ( on value is .549775 so you could use on > 0  here)
    ixeg/733/hydraulics/hyd_eng2_lowpress_ann
    ixeg/733/hydraulics/hyd_elec1_lowpress_ann
    ixeg/733/hydraulics/hyd_elec2_lowpress_ann

    those are what you are looking for I believe , since they won't illuminate if there is no power you shouldn't have to do anything fancy as far as figuring out the busses as the aircraft logic does it already. these are just the lights so they will follow whatever the aircraft does.
