Sorry, my mother tongue is not English, so this passage is from Google Translator. I hope you can understand it.

My purpose:
Use one key switch to simulate the CLR key of GNS530.



Problems encountered:
In the Input setting, the functions are divided into "AS530_CLR_Push" and "AS530_CLR_Push_Long". After I set the switch to "AS530_CLR_Push", the function of pressing the switch for a short time is normal, but even if I hold the CLR, it will not return to the NAV interface. Do I must have to set two keys for these two functions?

Are there any other solutions?

Thank you.

Hi

For now Mobiflight not itself support a "short" and "long" push.
For MF a Press send a signal and a Release send a signal... Always when happen.
So whatever you press a button short or hold it for 10 seconds.... In both ways only one (same) Command is execute directly in moment of press.

In Sim logical there are 2 Input types... So there exist 2 Events!

Solution:
Please check the other Presets for CLR Key.

Some advanced users write a own RPN Code to handle this.....
By build a internal "Timer" on Press of the Button they check for start of Action.
On Release they use a command like "Check how many time is gone since Press happen.... If its Less then 1 second then do A else do B.

Maybe you find a good event or you be able to copy/rework this code into your element.

If NOT..... Please Join Discord and talk to users Tuomas or Jaime (Both Moderators in Orange Color) They can pretty sure help you directly !

Thank you very much for your reply.

Do you know where there is a teaching address about using RPN code，please?

I also know the hubhop website, but I don't know how to use the CODE in it.

Simple Google.

RPN (Reverse polish notation) is a very famous coding style for decades and is used in many many Systems.
There are pretty sure lots of tutorials and guides in the web and in your language.
