test all function

[ANDYSMITH]

Hi Alan, I played with fs2ph5 last night and came across a problem I need your help with.
I have assigned two digital outputs for indicator lights, one digital output for a relay to turn off throttle servo power. Then I assigned a digital input for a light test, TEST ALL from the pulldown menu, but I can not figure out how to seperate the output for the servo relay so it is not activated by the light test switch.
I created them in seperate circuits but that didn't work. Seeing things cross between circuits does open up lots of options for all kinds of things. Very nice work!!

Andy,

LOL. Totally forgot that some digital outputs are not illuminations. I hardly ever use the Test All.
I tried it out with freshly running sim on the ground.
When I saw all the lights come on it was case of,
"The Test All works".

There are a number of ways we can workaround problem.
Create an Illuminated property for Digital Outputs.
Default the property to true (don't want to set property for every led and textlcd).
Test All would only test Illuminated-type Digital Outputs.

I am open to any and all suggestions.

Regards,
Alan.

Andy,

I have incorporated changes in this thread to version 5.0.16.
Also fixed a few bugs reported by gokhotit. He is trying those out.
Send me an email at alan@coconutair and I will forward you version 5.0.16 to try out.

Regards,
Alan
