Lights for Engine Start Levers (PMDG 737ngx)

Hi,

Great software - has been such a help using GFIT to get my goflight equipment to work with the PMDG 737NGX. I have sent a donation your way to show my support.

I have most things working the way I want them via reading the instructions, SDK and forums. there is one I am struggling with though and wondered if anyone knew of a way.

I have two toggle T8's setup for the engine Start Levers to toggle between Idle and Cutoff using the event EVT_CONTROL_STAND_ENG1/2_START_LEVER. I would like the lights for those T8's to light up when the start levers are at Cutoff position but I can't find a Light Data setting for this.

Can anyone help - or confirm that this is not possible?

Many Thanks for your help,

Adrian.

    Hi Adrian,

    Many thanks for the donation!

    Have you tried these:

                DATA_CTLSTD_SWITCH_ENG_START_VALVE_LEFT
                DATA_CTLSTD_SWITCH_ENG_START_VALVE_RIGHT

    Best wishes

    Hi Steve,

    Yes I think they were the one's I found initially and when I tried them they just mimic the yellow start valve open lights from the Engine Upper Display Unit that extinguish after the engine has completed the start.

    Hi Adrian,

    Nothing else remotely looks like what you need.

    PMDG are meant to be updating the SDK but they said that over 12 months ago. I would raise a ticket with them asking for what you need to be included in the updated SDK.

    Best wishes
