Thanks, I’m aware of the functions thanks to other posters.

What I meant was, where is it located, how is it set, etc. Concierge engineering and the like, or not.

This all plays into how easy it is - or is not - to use, especially while seated in either seat.

It is a frequent subject in accident investigation - where are XXXX and could the person get it, or make a mistake hitting it, etc.

I don't know what you mean by "concierge engineering" — this is an airplane, not a hotel.

However, the video addresses your questions.

One interesting point is, the video claims the control module can optionally be mounted in the ceiling instead of the center console. Putting it overhead would obviously preclude an unconscious pilot from randomly hitting the Lock switch with his elbow or something.
