Hello,
I'd like to connect a potentiometer with Leobodnar BU0836X USB card, in order to dimmer pfd display brightness in aerosoft a320.
But in spad.next I can set each entry as switch on/off, simple button or pushbutton.
How can I use the potentiometer for dimmering?

Hi Fabrizio,

Thank you Oz, I was wondering how to operate on spad.next side. What kind of action should I use?
Re: Potentiometer with Leobodnar BU0836X
The potentiometer will appear as an axis in spad.next which you can control a slider and will give a value of -16384 to +16384 depending on position.
You will need to find the dimming variable of the a320 and then use the axis value and adjust this to the span and direction of the dimming variable.
It will take some time looking thru the simconnect, fsuipc or LVAR variables to find the right one!
Also spad has some other axis tricks like range so you can set discrete steps or position eg turn off is axis below -16000

Thank you Rob, my message was posted time ago. Meanwhile, I figured out how to use the potentiometerRobs wrote: ↑17 Jun 2019, 18:27The potentiometer will appear as an axis in spad.next which you can control a slider and will give a value of -16384 to +16384 depending on position.

Glad you figured it.

Can you tell me how to do this I am wanting to do the same for Zibo 737 panel brightness dimmer, and am also in need of how to do the Flt Alt and Land Alt with an encoder on Leo board
