lesthegrngo Posted December 14, 2019 Posted December 14, 2019 Guys, after an unscrupulous Ebay seller sent me a load of ON-OFF-ON switches despite the item being sold being clearly advertised as ON-ON-ON switches, I now need to find someone who sells real ON-ON-ON switches. The worst part is the six week wait for the switches to arrive, which will put the project back a while as I can't move forward until I'm sure of the schematics of the switches. Can anyone point me to a real On-ON-ON switch being sold? Cheers Les

Abburo Posted December 14, 2019 Posted December 14, 2019 Never saw an On-On-On toggle switch. There are somethin 3xON but they are small and with a linear moving knob. However you can obtain your 3xON by using the RSMapper software here: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=205492 Romanian Community for DCS World HW Specs: AMD 7900X, 64GB RAM, RTX 4090, HOTAS Virpil, MFG, CLS-E, custom
Fusedspine33 Posted December 14, 2019 Posted December 14, 2019 There are on-on-on toggles available, eBay has a few they are usually more expensive and have 6 points on the rear looking like a DPDT switch. They are a bit of a PITA to test the pin out. We luckily have some keybinds that simulate the effect for us built into to some of the modules like the F-18 flap switches which save one input on your card. Honeywell and Eaton on-on-on are available on EBay if you want them. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
mr_mojo97 Posted December 14, 2019 Posted December 14, 2019 I was gonna say, can't you change the lua lines to suit the switches, like the keybind abstractions in the Harrier settings etc?

lesthegrngo Posted December 14, 2019 Author Posted December 14, 2019 Thanks guys, that certainly would seem to cover it - I do have On-OFF-On DPDT toggle switches, so that should work. Off to test I think! Cheers
Goblin Posted December 14, 2019 Posted December 14, 2019 Here’s how I make my ON-ON-ON switches. I think it’s in the other thread as well. https://www.dropbox.com/s/gq6qeck3yijvxxi/DIY%20ON-ON-ON%20Switch.pdf?dl=0
TomVR Posted December 14, 2019 Posted December 14, 2019 you can wire an on-off-on into an on-on-on with some clever bridging, as long as it has 6 pins, not 3. https://www.seymourduncan.com/blog/the-tone-garage/guitar-wiring-explored-switches-part-3
BlacleyCole Posted December 14, 2019 Posted December 14, 2019 I get my switches from allelectronics.com I believe you might find what you want there. Are you going for full size or would you want a smaller switch so you can get more within the same footprint. My first order was when I was going to make a 1:1 cockpit of the twin otter for xp11. Second order was for smaller switches where I could build a button box fr a generic pit. Now if I’ll use that idea if I feel the need since switching to vr. I testing a couple things out.so think about what you plan is if it’s a panel then 1;1 makes sense bu;t if it’s a button box smaller switches would work as well if not better.

Goblin Posted December 15, 2019 Posted December 15, 2019 The first type of switch in your pdf is On-On-On, not On-Off-On You are correct. It can be wired for ON-OFF-ON for two circuits though, as mentioned in the text. Or you can wire it to have only one circuit on or both at the same time. The point was, however, that you can take a simple DPDT ON-OFF-ON switch and modify it to a ON-ON-ON switch, by bending the contacts.
