I think my brain is having a meltdown. I am well and truly stuck on getting a switch matrix to work. I have tried the following 2 approaches. Neither produce any signs of life from my panel. This is well above my capability it seems. Any help will be greatly appreciated. I have a number of potentiometers, rotary encoders and 3 way switches on the panel, which are not included in the matrix. These all work fine. I'm using an Arduino Mega, DCS BIOS Fork, a keypad and 43 switches in a 8 column x 7 row matrix using diodes to stop ghosting. MyAltSwitchMatrix.txt MySwitchMatrix.txt

Hi all, I am in the process of building a switch panel for the FA-18. I've got all the bits and pieces and am trying to understand what I need to do to get it working. I want 60 switch/button inputs, and want to do it on 3 matrix 4 columns 5 rows. I tried to test this on a smaller scale and realised that I can't even get a simple matrix to work. I've been referring to the DCS BIOS control reference page, and see the matrix2pos/3pos commands. I've totally confused myself and would love it if someone could point me in the right direction. This is my first attempt at anything like this and I don't want to give up! Also, I'm using Arduino Mega, breadboard, diodes, switches and pushbuttons. I've planned my circuit and I know what switches I want where on matrix.

Roger that. I will get it sorted.

Yes, I was in the A10 2, going through my start procedure, and then I gave a command from my piggybacked profile and it switched to the inverse listening state everyone I press the ptt. I don't have either dice or herc mods

The problem happened again today. It's a phantom bug. Happened just the once. It doesn't like something.

I've just tried to play Piercing Fury for the 1st time. Unfortunately, mission 2 seems to still be bugged. The C130 lands safely at Senaki. I guess that isn't supposed to happen.

Yes, I noticed this. Was it just the crackle on and off previously?

Edit - Cancel, I realise my mistake.

Sorry, I didn't get chance to test, but I have the following mods in my Saved Games folder... Hercules ver 6.7 Military Aircraft Mod VNAO DCS-SRS 476RangeTargets Helipads HermesR12 VPC nBFVG Harrier Pack Tacview Ze Dim' New Static Packv0.4 and of course VAICOMPRO

Thank you. I'll have a try later tonight. It'll be interesting to see what the problem is. Also, I do not have Dice.

What would be useful to know? I will try and replicate it tomorrow evening. Tonight, I needed Vaicom to work for a squadron flight.

I spoke too soon. I went on MP tonight and straight away the inverted Listening Suspended / Listening Resumed problem came back, in the A10C2 for every PTT switch. I reverted back to 2.5.24 and the problem went away.

I'm please to say, it works. Thanks

It was a 64bit in place update as prompted by VA. I have now rolled the software back to version 24 and it has fixed the problem for now.

Thank you
