 External Doors gauge by Jim "DX" Dickinson. 4/11/2006
 
 Version 1.2, 14.04.2013, added buttons for separate control of the cargo doors. Tatyana "Lyapuchka" Mikhailova :-)

 This gauge is designed for use with the LVL-D B767.  It contains buttons for the Main Exit and the Front/Rear Cargo doors.  It will also work with other aircraft that are modeled to use the "Fold Wing" action to open/close the rear cargo door.  Because of this, the FS message "Wings Extended" and "Wings Folded" will appear when the Cargo button is depressed. This gauge remains backlit at night until the main battery switch is turned off.  If the main battery is off, then it will remain backlit until the main BUS turned off.

 If you know how to change the code so that the backlight goes out with the rest of the panel, regardless of the battery condition, please make the change and let me know.  I've got some placards that behave the same way, and I'd love to fix all of them.
