hi happy,

please give us a bit more input.

- what simulation (FSX, P3DV? etc)
- standard-aircraft or addon (if addon, which one?)
- which LEDs do you want to switch? (all ones or only some?)

If your LEDs don''t have offsets you should run into trouble. You need an address within the simulation to drive them.
If the addresses are not present from the outside, they can not be retrieved and it makes no sense to connect LEDs.

Q400 is released in 3 different versions. May you need the Training-Version (the expensiv one) which have a cockpit hardware interface. I´am not shure, but I think only with this version you can read out offsets. Best way would be ask the developers.
