Hello all,
I'm trying to assign a push button switch to a phidget 0/16/16 board input to turn ON a physical output on the same board, I want the push button to act as a switch to turn the output ON and OFF . I'm currently using FS2phidgets ver 4.3.66 to connect to the 0/16/16 board. Is there a easy way to do this internally without any offsets?
Any suggestions ?
Thanks
Phil

wire the switch straight to the output. However I would recommend that you wire the switch to the board and the output to the board, that way your output reads the sim state, instead of switch state.

Sorry, maybe I wasn't clear... I want to simulate the stall warning test on the AFT OH of B737 that is connected to a real stick shaker(28V), the output controls the stick shaker( FS Ver Stall Warning 036C Offset) really well . Now I need to find a way to simulate the stick shaker test on the ground.

if it is just a test circuit, why not just wire the switch directly?

I don't want to use a diode nor do I want to go direct due to the fact that the 0/16/16 board is controlling the output portion of the shaker real well. I've done this with PM Sys and Phidgets where one card controls the output test when a input is pressed on the same card or even on another card with the same offset. I was hoping to be able to do this with FS2phidgets too.

Where did the the circuit function disappear to? I don't see it in Ver 4.3.66.
