Radio Panal Config help

[rare shuttle]

Ok, I have successfully created a working COM1 radio. I know would like to add a toggle switch so that when it's in position 1 (on) the encoder changes com1 and when its in position 2 (off) the encoder changes Com2 any ideas?

ok

so the way you can do this

is with preconditions

you create two configurations

that you can test independently, by checking the active checkboxes off and on on each config at a time

so either one works independently

and shows the correct radio

so the display if you have one, and the encoder and possible switches

they just use the same hardware devices

then you create an input config for the switch

and make it change a MobiFlight variable to 1 or 0 based on the switch position

so OnPress set RadioSelected = 1

and 0 on the other

(variables are initialized as 0 so its easier if one is 0 so it also works on startup

and then add precondition to the two different radio configs

one works only when RadioSelected = 1

and the other when it is 0

you see the red exclamation marks on the configs when a config is NOT active

preconditions just make mobiflight skip a config

so you can have two separate configs use the same encoder and displays as long as the preconditions are mutually exclusive

I think I was on the right track with this. This is what I had

yes

Just not sure how this corresponds to the switch position

and should it be in an analogue pin or a digital pins?

something is not correct in your hardware config. You say it is a toggle switch in the name, but Mobiflight thinks it is a potentiometer. Notice the tab says "on change". That is for a potentiometer.

If it is a switch, go back and change the hardware device config to "Button" and upload to the board before proceeding.

once you have the button config device correctly, it will show in the input config as "on press" and "on release" tabs.
