solved Logitech rudder pedal toe brakes not appearing in bindings

[Stu 657]

I’ve just got a new set of Logitech rudder pedals. The toe brakes do show in windows and the Logitech software. But when I try to bind them as a toe brake, there is no option in the binding options. Rudder pedals work fine. Is this some digital vs analogue switch issue and DCS isn’t picking up the brake switches? This is the case for all modules that have L&R toe brakes.

Possibly. Make sure you bind them under "Axis controls" and set them to "slider" (and you might have to invert them)
If you try to bind them as keybindings, DCS won´t pick up the input.

Thanks for that. I am not seeing anything in the pedals bindings to enter anything. the key/button box in the binding assignment box is empty, no options to choose anything.

Try RIGHT CLICKING in the appropriate box and you should get a dropdown that will allow you to pick the axis/button you want.

It´s normal that the box is empty when nothing is assigned. I normally double click on the empty box and then just move the axis, and it is assigned automatically.

But again, it´s important to choose "Axis Commands" from the drop down menu at the top, otherwise DCS might not pick up the input of the toe brakes.

Just to be sure, please, give as a screenshot when you observe the problem, it always helps a lot.

After a drawn out conversation with logitech support, the issue was with the logitech windows software. the default for the toe pedals was set by default to unprogrammed.   I changed it to directional axis, then Bob's your uncle, the toe brakes appear when i open the DCS axis bindings. Thanks for all your helpful replies All.
