Yes there is:

 

Open the profile for the controller that you want to mdifiy in a editor proper (Notepad++) and add following lines directly in the next line after this one:

keyCommands = { (it's normally line #12)

 

You find your currently used profiles for each plane\module and each controller in C:\>username<\Saved Games\DCS\Config\Input\...

 

 

This is how is has to look:

[color=DarkOrange][b]keyCommands = {[/b][/color]
[color=DarkGreen]{down = 3001, cockpit_device_id = 1, value_down = 1, name = "Kneeboard Next Page", category = "Kneeboard"},
{down = iCommandPlaneShowKneeboard, name = "Kneeboard ON/OFF", category = "Kneeboard"},
{down = 3002, cockpit_device_id = 1, value_down = 1, name = "Kneeboard Previous Page", category = "Kneeboard"},
{down = 3003, cockpit_device_id = 1, value_down = 1, name = "Kneeboard current position mark point", category = "Kneeboard"},
{down = iCommandPlaneShowKneeboard, up = iCommandPlaneShowKneeboard, value_down = 1, value_up = -1, name = "Kneeboard glance view", category = "Kneeboard"},[/color]

 

When it's done right you can assign your buttons for the Knee-board category.

What is meant by mapping the kneeboard to the JS? I'm thinking that you are referring to being able to quick glance at it?

 

Thank you.

Thanks Peter ... Sadly I cannot offer any additional rep.

 

I appreciate it.
