This may have been asked by someone else before, but can I link the 1649A prop reverse levers to either a keyboard command or to my throttle quadrant buttons? I can never get them to work properly. When I click on them in the cockpit I always seem to get a throttle advance (the throttles move to full forward position).

The key command for prop reverse is Ctrl-F2 (and hold it down). Ctrl-F4 brings you back out.
Hope this helps,

I don't think Ctrl-F2 works on our setup.
The gauge is programmed in such a fashion that once you click into the reversing lights reverse is initiated and the throttles are opened automatically. Now take over manually by adjusting the throttles as needed. As soon as you throttle back reversing will terminate.
Test this when your plane is on the runway ready for t/o. Release the parking brakes and click into the reversing lights. Your a/c should begin to roll backwards as it should. Regulate and terminate reverse using the throttles.

Those keys do indeed work in the Starliner. The only difference is that you have to hold down Ctrl-F2 the entire time while slowing. Then you press Ctrl F4 to get back to full forward thrust.
Hope this helps,
