How do I monitor airplane power state?

Post by LegendXZero1 » 29 Aug 2021, 20:28

I just now figured out how to make the buttons work on the default Cessna in MSFS 2020. This works as long as the switches are flipped on the Saitek switch panel. However, I haven't figured out how to get the virtual power to cut off on the physical Saitek panels for when the battery fails in the sim to match my controls regardless of the switch positions there in. The switch positions should move in the sim but nothing should power on when there is no power in the sim on the Saitek panels but they keep turning on anyway ignoring the sim status of battery failure. Is this type of monitoring even possible or how do I setup for that type of config?

Switches are mechanical switches. They will "work" even if there is no power. Even in the real aircraft.
If you want the switches to do nothing when the aircrafdt is not powered, add a condition for Master Battery and Voltage
