I've built the 737Diy non-motorized throttle and can see the potentiometer input changing but I have a problem with the assignment, can someone please educate me?

I 've used the Potentiometer RPN-Tool to find the proper values to input, i'm getting this error. any help would be welcome
<<Error 02/27/2024 23:43:35 Exception on NCalc evaluate => 91 44 - -282.4655 * 16383 + 0 max 16383 min (>K:SPOILERS_SET): missing EOF at '44' at line 1:3>>
using an Arduino Mega, going into the PMDG 737 any other info can be furnished
Thanx in advance

Upload your .MCC file here, looks like there's an error in it

Oh, I just realized 😅 You have that code in the wrong place

#

You picked "Mobiflight - Variable" for the action type. You should pick "Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020" and then check "Show preset code" and put that code in the resulting box

#

Here's a screenshot from one of my configs. It's for a different input but should show you what I mean

omg thank you! I'll try that now ! I'm pretty new and enjoy learning more and more about this. what are the commands for the reverser, in the tool they seem to have the same name as the throttle? thanks for your time!

#

it seemed to work with the throttles, they are both connected! the spoiler will not move yet, i will try to trouble shoot this. and I am confused about the reversers name

#

this is what it seems to come up with and it looks the same as the throttle ---(>K:THROTTLE_SET)

I believe throttles and reversers are often coupled to the same variable, and negative values indicate the reversers

#

you'll notice the RPN is different, it allows a -16383 value through +16383

#

your original RPN had a lower limit of 0

i see, ok this is new to me. could you take look at the mcc file now and see if there is anything glaring?

#

Not easily since I don't have any of your hardware

#

but if you aren't getting any errors anymore it should be fine

ok no worries, i'll tinker. you've been a massive help. thank you !
