Wiring a switch as off/on/off

[bduemig]

Got my switches today and wired the panel. After hooking everything up, ran into some snags. Some things worked fine, but others didn't. It seems that some switches left in the on position interfere with others. When I have certain switches on (and set not to repeat), other switches become inoperative. I guess I needed to do a better job of mapping the keyboard so I was using simple keypresses rather than some that could be combinations. I think that is what is causing my problems.

Some keyboards, especially basic ones only allow you to press a few keys at a time, and just setting FSUIPC to ignore the held key doesn't stop windows from seeing the key being held down so when you start turning on multiple switches windows is seeing multiple keys being held down.

Most basic keyboards allow usually 3 or 5 keys max.
