How do I reset Helios?

[Fakum]

I have noticed over the years that when I'm in flight and either the Multiplayer server crashes or I simply leave one to go to another, or I crash and jump into a fresh A-10C, the Helios gauges are not in the default positions as they were when I initially started it, I'm in a cold seat and I have switches on already etc. I found that even if I manage to ALT Tab out and am able to get to the Helios GUI and hit the RESET button, I usually get strange results and wind up closing down DCS, then closing down Helios and start all over again. What a pain in the butt! 2 things I would like to accomplish, 1st thing is that I have some hidden buttons on my profile that are not in use, I would like to incorporate a command to one of them that will RESET Helios without having to fiddle my way out to the desktop while Keeping DCS alive. I have no idea what command that would be? Do you? 2nd thing I would like to accomplish is try and understand why is it that even though I hit Reset, it does not completely do so? But I would settle for incorporating the RESET in my touchscreen above all else. Thanks for any help.

I've never experienced this yet, but did you try a reset button on your Helios profile? Possibly the same result, but at least dont have to Alt-Tab out.

Only instead of showing "Control centre", when button Pushed, drag Reset Helios so pushing button will "Reset Helios"

better suggestion

I seen that thread, but I don't see how I can relate it to what I'm trying to do? The problem is, I can not find the keybindings for the "Helios Control Center" RESET button. If I knew what it was , then I could just implement that onto one of my spare hidden buttons in my profile, Since I cant seem to open up the "Helios Control Center" in the Profile Editor, I cant find out what the keybindings are? I will hop over to that other thread and pursue this from there, many thanks.

I added some specific instructions at the end of the tutorial thread for precisely what you are trying to do! LaLa

I posted this over there as well:

 

Well,,, that certainly did the trick! I was taking the wrong approach and attempting to implement keybindings. Thank you very much!
