Does OC4BAv5 have built-in support for the discontinued P&P throttle quadrant from Opencockpits?

The driver support Events for both TQ FWD Thrust Levers and TQ REV Thrust Levers
The Vars are 2815 and 2816, Plus numbers for FWD thrust and minus for REV thrust
It can be tested by setting values via SIOC IOCPConsole.
There are none SDK Variables for setting FWD Thrust Levers controlled by the autopilot system that I know of.
I will check with PMDG support.
There is script code in the default OCP4NGX(u) script for the TQ. They must be written.

Just looked a little deeper into this topic again as I know my memory isn't the best and have an update
OC4BAv5 support Throttle Stand Variables for both the NGX and NGXu
Var 1814 Spoiler
Var 1815 Throttle 1
Var 1816 Throttle 2
Var 1817 Throttle Trim
+ additional
Var 1818 Groundspeed
Var 1819 Radioaltitude
This means that all TQ Stand Events(inputs) and Variables(outputs) are available.
But, there is no script for Throttle in the default script in OC4BAv5.
Maybe Alpin Flier here at the forum has a script?

Thanks for the update. I appreciate it. I can check with Alpin when I am ready on this project.

If my memory does serve me wrong, I believe he made at some point in time a TQ script.
