Re: Synchronize switches with xplane not working

The second one Hi, ive tested the following with this code: local switch_36_pos function switch_36_callback(position) print("The battery switch got changed to position " .. position) if position == 0 then xpl_command("sim/electrical/battery_1_off") xpl_command("laminar/c90/...

Re: Synchronize switches with xplane not working

sorry im confused. you are asking me to test your code but first start x-plane and then airmanager? or you want me to disable my panel from auto starting when airmanager starts, so i then start airmanager and wait for the hardware to become available and then manually start my panel, and then start ...

Re: Synchronize switches with xplane not working

Yes my thoughts exactly. When trying to diagnose an issue or to get some code working you should keep the environment the same for each test as it just introduces more and more variances each time you test. I always recommend testing with default c172 if at all possible. Once working you can then s...

Re: Synchronize switches with xplane not working

The code was tested with the landing light switch as in your example now you’ve switched to the battery switch. If you test with the exact code I posted you will find it works. As You have to make sure the hardware is available before running this else the hardware will not get added. Tony, Not onl...

Re: Synchronize switches with xplane not working

Hi I thought I would try and help. But I am fundamentally confused. Perhaps a short clip indicating what you are doing would assist us better to help you. Keith hi, i will try to explain. 1) set up airmanager to load automatically on the computer startup 2) configure your panel to load at airmanage...

Re: Synchronize switches with xplane not working

Hi, To be honest, your code seems flawed ;) Doing a xpl_subscribe using the same switch callback means that the INT[] will be placed in the position argument of the switch_36_callback function. This is probably not what you want to happen. You can use the timer if you want to simulate a loop: funct...
