Helios, Phidgets LEDs and brightness

[JG14_Smil]

Hello,

 

I am sure there are only a few people that can answer this. I am hoping Gadroc gets a few minutes of spare time to take a look. My issue is:

 

I have high-intensity LEDs in my LWR that will melt your eyeballs if you look directly into them. I have them working perfectly by binding BS2 to both the "toggle" and "set brightness" bindings (set to 7%).

 

When I try this with other LEDs (like AP lights), it causes them to work opposite of what they are supposed to do (on when off, ect).

 

What I think is happening is that when the DCS export data starts, the LWR LEDs are always off, then the toggle comand works perfectly.

 

AP LEDs may be on or off at export start, and thus they can get out of sync.

 

AP LEDs work perfectly with the "set power" binding alone but are too bright. I add the "set brightness" binding, either combined with the "toggle" or "set power" bindings, but they always work backwards (off when supposed to be on, ect.).

 

Is there a lua line I can add in the advanced properties of the "toggle" binding that would always force the binding to start out as 'false'?

 

I think it says it already does, but it lies...

 

thanks. I know it is a toughie.

I'll have to refresh my memory on this and try and replicate it. PM sent to e-mail me your profile.

Thanks Gadroc. I'll put it together and get it sent out soon.
