My goal is to use the switch in the photo to switch an electromagnet (not shown) on and off with the relay module. I have the diode to control the flyback.
The 12v relay circuit is straightforward and I have that taken care of.
What I am having trouble with is the LUA coding needed to send the HIGH 5v signal to the IN pin on the relay.
I can get the (3) pin switch connected by following the E26 video and it will print out the positions in the console as it should. (see below)
Then from E27 "input" and "output sections I can duplicate those exercises.
But I am at a loss on understanding the concepts of how to combine all of this to get that relay to work.
I need the switch (the NO side) to close and activate the selected arduino pin attached to the IN connection on the relay to turn on/off the 12v magnet.
Also, the NC side (when closed again) will need to send a signal to the autopilot servos in Xplane. That LUA coding is still a mystery to me.
If anyone can give me some advice on how to bring all of these separate pieces of code together I would be really grateful.
I just cant seem to get a handle on it......
