A10-C TACAN test button not functioning

[lesthegrngo]

All, a pretty minor niggle, but would be nice to fix it

I have wired up a push button straight to an arduino (pin 9 in this case) with the other side of the switch going to ground for the TACAN test button

I have tried both these DSC BIOS Lines and it just won't light the test light (test light checked in Bobobears debugger)

DcsBios::Switch2Pos tacanTestBtn("TACAN_TEST_BTN", 9);

DcsBios::ActionButton tacanTestBtnToggle("TACAN_TEST_BTN", "TOGGLE", 9);

Pin 9 is allocated to nothing else, I have checked that the arduino is electrically connected and no shorts

Is this functioning for others?

Hi Les,

the TEST light for the TACAN not always shows up in the cockpit.

You have to switch the panel in REC or T/R mode first. Than change the channel and push the test button.

The LED only lights once, until you change the channel again or switch between REC and T/R.

No idea if this is intentional behavior or a bug.

For me the Switch2Pos option works fine (pin A1).

Regards, Vinc

Thanks Vinc - you must have found that out the hard way! I'll give that a go
