Dynamic / "On the fly" change of targetted Board Model and Channel for hardware inputs assignment FEATURE REQUESTED

[SimPassion]

Going forward, I've checked the existing Hardware tab

the thing is that we get a callback delayed : only when the hardware input is switched to OFF in the AM UI hardware tab

INITIAL STATE

INPUT D7 switched to ON

INPUT D7 switched to OFF

I confirm again that the callback is made only when the Light Bulb is released (switched OFF)
so an issue to fix in AM

This is working as expected here. But i have just noticed that hw_input_add() is not correctly coloured (stays plain white, should be magenta) in the AM code editor.

This code prints true when the light bulb is pressed (bulb on) and then prints false when pressed again (bulb off). I didn't have any actual hardware configured.

Code: Select all

hw_input_add("test input", function(val) 
    print(val)
end)

Thanks Tony, the print statement is fine
however without this simple print proof, it doesn't work on my own and the issue is there exactly how I've reported
Sorry, no time for this now, but I really thought at some point, due to my poor English spoken, to do some video which would better than billion of words, at least for me

This issue has never been reported by SI as confirmed, but still exists in AM 3.7 and AM 4.0 BETA

Additionally, it looks like AM has difficulties to release Arduino boards handled in device tab, when let say AM Final and AM Beta are running at the same time and we exit the AM UI that currently handle them
Due to continuous device scan in the background, the other running AM UI, should bring the list of Arduino boards just been released by the other version of AM !

Gilles

[EDIT] I should correct that we have only to be patient to let the process going its way on its own and additionally there's a new <SCAN> button on AM 4.0 BETA in Device tab that allow to re-scan after Arduino Boards are released from a previous AM version. So don't take this post in account
