GA key mag+ starter programming

[teeloo 18]

This is what I made to simulate the key mag + starter switch
 

Assumptions:

You don’t own Alpha (as the key mag+ starter is provided as hardware)

You don’t use REV and IAS button on a GA aircraft. (I don’t)

Goal:
This programming will allow you to press and hold REV and rotate the Incr /Decr to cycle through OFF, L, R and BOTH

Hold REV while pressing IAS will engage the starter.
