How To setup the Thrustmaster TCA throttle quadrant to operate
the FSS Embraer throttles and reversers

 

The reversers of the E-170/175/190/195 are part of the course of the throttle levers.
They can’t be triggered by an input such as THROTTLE x DECREASE.

They need to be assigned to a part of the course of the hardware quadrant
used such as the TCA. This happens via the EFB settings.

STEP 1 :

Create a new controller profile for the E-Jets and make sure the following functions remain unassigned :
