Found a small bug on button mapping.

I was trying to map 3 specific buttons to one of my device.

The 3 buttons are the 3 switches located on the communications panel right next to the 4 volume axis.

The intercom, antenna, and channel box switches.

The issue is no matter which buttons on my device I use for those 3, every time I press it, it will first turn it on, but as soon as I release the button, it will turn it off. 

No other buttons on the aircraft have this issue.

Ahh, because those are switches. While you use button, press gives command Val 1 while release gives command Val 0.

Not that simple, Let's say if the switch is on by default, so pressing it should set it to off and release the button should set it to on. But that wasn't what happened. No matter what was the default position, after you pressing it, it will always end in "off" position.

Also, can you please let it only work on press or release? Thanks very much.

because release but always means command 0, so always off regardless initial status.

Those are momentary buttons, so useful for PTT, IFF, things like that - actual momentary buttons in the aircraft. If you want your momentary buttons to act as switches, I recommend configuring joystick gremlin.
