Hey, ich habe mich die tage mal wieder an meinem Flusi gesetzt zusammen mit dem G1000 welches ich über 2 Arduinos ansteuer. Ich wollte den Flugplan öffnen was nicht funktioniert hat. Habe in die Config geschaut und rausgefunden das es an Pin 025 des ersten Arduinos hängt. Multimeter messung hat ergeben das ich kontakt beim drücken der Taste habe also scheints nicht an der Hardware zu liegen.
Wollte gerade zum Flugaufbrechen und gucken ob ich die FLC Taste endlich belegen kann (welches ich nach einem Update kann) leider gab mir im Simulator keine Ausgabe aus egal was ich einstelle. Also wieder in die Config geschaut und siehe da die FLC Taste hängt an Pin 025 des zweiten Arduinos??? Multimeter messung ergab selbes bild wie bei der FPL taste. Ist das ein Freaky zufall das beide nicht funktionierende Taste an Pin025 der beiden Arduinos hängen? Abgesehn dieser beiden Tasten läuft alles

Hey Moelle,

let us switch to English so that other users can learn from your problem too and also help.
First question: What sim are you using?
Have a great day!

Oh OK here is a quick summary.
I use Mobiflight version 9.0 and the MSFS2020. I Have an g1000 build by simbay.de . It is connecte via 2 Arduino Mega. Everything is working fine execpt the FPL und the FLC button. I look up the Config file and the FPL Button is configure to Pin025 on Arduino#1 the FLC Button is configure to Pin025 on Arduino#2 :confused: . Quick Multimeter test shows there is connection as soon as i press the button but nothing happen in the Sim regardless of what im assigned the Buttons. Is there any known Bug with pin025 or its just a freaky conincidens?

Hello Moelle,
you didn't say if your Arduinos are clones or the original one.
If they are clones, it could be the Board LED which is normally connected to D13on the original one (and most? clones). Maybe on your Board the LED is on D25.
That would mean that the button is detected as pressed all the time, but you will not recognize this.
Regards
Ralf

I never see a Arduino with a LED on Pin 25. Pin13 is stock and should be correct for all Boards ( including clones)

About Problem:

The most easy way..... Find out the problem ( Soft or Hardware)
Simply swap 2 Configs and use the inverted device !
(OR use the Debug Function to see if Button is detected)
E.g.

Config for another Button is working fine ( with a Button e.g. on Pin 22) ..... Go to this config and choose for testing the problematic Button that is currently on Pin 25.
Also go the the Config you currently use the Button from Pin25 and choose here Pin22 Button.

2 possible results:

1. Now Button 22 no longer work ..... And Button 25 correctly controll the other function (that was prior done with Button 22)
Then Problem is the Config and the used Event/Offset OR the function is not correctly available in the Sim already.

2. Button 22 now controll the former bad function perfectly ..... BUT Button 25 still not act and also not handle the confirmed working system ( that was done with B22 before).
Then there is a Hardware or Firmware Device Settings Problem.

*********************

In easy words.... Check if your Hardware is broke or not !
Good Luck !
