Hello,

At the moment the 'test' button (main program page) only triggers the output on/off.

Is it possible to implement an all on state so we can test the load capacity of our amplifier card?

Right now to leave it on the on state I must individually select each output, click 'Test' on the Display tab on the ConfigWizard, then close the dialogue box by using the X button on the upper right corner.

Hi

I dont understand whats the benfit of it..... So i not understand why you need it or why it should be a feature.... Maby you can tell us more how users should work with that.

BUT

to help you direct.... simply make a Testing Config. ( Maby a work of 10 Mins )
Create a Output Config
For Example Offset 0000 and say in Compare " IF Value is 0 THEN 1 ELSE 1 .... ( So Value is campared always to 1 whatever the value is ??? in real)
NOW Duplicate this Config 49 times.
You can Rename it if you like .... For Example Output 1, Output 2 and so on
Save it

To use this file you simply activate as much configs you need ( If you got 30 LED on that board then activate config 1-30 ) and define in that configs as Device the used LED Pins.
Then Run Sim and Mobiflight..... And ALL LED will light up !

To use this file for different boards simply enable/disable the configs and set new Devices.
You also can make a "Save AS" and create a file for every Card you got to have it backup if you need a test again,

NotPerfect.... But a good, fast and easy solution.

Hi pizman, thank you for the script, I will look into implementing it.

The all on 'test' toggle is to test the output loads of the simulator when all lights are turned on.

In the sim this would be equivalent to the light test switch on the aircraft.

With the output amplifier boards I would like to test the full load (54 outputs) and the current draw -- right now I have to do it individually, it would be great if there was an option to keep it turned on.

Cheers,

Ben
