``` cpp
HRESULT SimConnect_SetInputEvent(
    HANDLE hSimConnect,
    DWORD Hash,
    DWORD cbUnitSize,
    PVOID Value
)
```

 

##### Parameters

{{< table-wrapper >}}

| `hSimConnect` | Handle to a SimConnect object.                     | Integer      |
| `Hash`        | Hash ID that will identify the desired inputEvent. | Integer      |
| `cbUnitSize`  | Specifies the size of the value in bytes.          | Integer      |
| `Value`       | New value of the specified inputEvent.             | Float/String |

{{< /table-wrapper >}}
