Hello,
I have a very good working preset (@ 150.50 / 93 (>K:2:LIGHT_POTENTIOMETER_SET) for a potentiometer that controls the brightness of the A320 lower panel.
Unfortunately the potentiometer is connected wrong and the brightness increases when I turn it to the left instead of to the right. A re-soldering is problematic, because I can't reach the backside of my panel. Could the code be changed so that the direction of rotation changes?
Thank you for helping!

Yes...

Check our Tool to create the code automatically..... https://hubhop.mobiflight.com/tools/

You can use the "invert" Function.... OR you simply use e.g. 1024 as MIN and 0 as MAX Value to calculate the inverted system,.
Good Luck !
