Hello all,

I am trying to convert my AP-module set up with Link2fs to Mobiflight. With Link2 it works perfectly but the idea is to switch to MSFS 2020 where Link2fs isn’t supported... The AP module is build with an Arduino Mega.

My first attempt in turning on and off a led with MB showed something peculiar:

My out pin 42 on mega worked only when I entered pin 40 in MB for that led. The same problem for leds on pins 44 (MB42), 46 (MB44) and 48 (MB 46)
Also, leds on output 23, 25 and 27 give no result (leds not turning on).

Any advice would be welcome.

Corrupted EEPROM Maybe.

Please "Eeprom Clear" the Board, by using that sketch from the Arduino IDE.
NOTE: Make a Resave ( *.mfmc) File from your settings...: Else you must define all the devices for new.

Upload newest Firmware, Upload your settings and finally make a Restart of the Mega!

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

Whatever.... The problem sounds verry strange.
Please report experience. Hopefully it work. If not we need to have a closer look onto it !

Good Luck !

I have cleared the board and MB as well and restarted MB with only 1 led.
Mega pin = 42 , MB = 40 and the led turns on in testmode. It does not turn on when MB pin out is set for 42.
The led is physically connected to pin 42. Somehow MB detects a different setup of the board.

Ok,
It seems to work now.
I have disconnected all cables from the module, reset everything and reconnected pin by pin.
So far so good. No idea what the problem was.
Thanks,
N.
