A question that comes up here from time to time is how to have a single physical avionics switch, like that in the great Desktop Aviator switch panel, flip both avionics switches in the X-Plane Cessna 172 (which has two, one on each electronics bus). The answer is to assign the “cross-tie” command to the physical switch, not the avionics toggle command. Hope that helps.

Greetings…. when you get a chance could you elaborate on how to Cross-tie the physical switch. (I asking cause some of us out there might not know how. wink wink!!! ;P
Thanks in advance.

You assign the command to the switch in the joystick settings just like any other command. Just type “tie” into the search box on the joystick settings page in X-Plane.
Hi,
If you assign the cross-tie it seems to switch only the BUS 2 button. Does it switch both BUS1 and BUS2 at once?
Please let me know.
Thanks!
It does for me.
