One time switch using P1

Hi All

I use a Central Box200 with a mode 5 Jeti DS16 and want to create a switch to turn on strobes when I initiate the motors on my multirotor. I thought I could do this with s Logical Switch but I need it to turn the servo channel to 100% the first time I use the Logical switch and then turn it to -100% the next time I use it. Is this possible in any way?

hi halton ... ('s that ya real name?)

I am not sure wether I understand your problem correctly.

you want to to use a switch or as in your headline P1 which to me is a poti?
and what should happen when?

could you be more precise please, maybe it is just me, but atm. I do not have a clue what your really wanna do.
pls describe it a big like a prozess maybe ... kind of what the initial state of the switch or poti is, what you do and expect to happen when poti or switch is in postion xyz ... ya know what I mean?

rgds,
guido

just read ya "Aye Up from Lancashire UK" post ... so hi DAVE

and yes there is mac-users here as well ... me

ready ya post over and over to figure out what ya really want to to, as a SWITCH to me in the simplest way ist postion one / switch up = ON, postion two / switch down = OFF.
and what did you try with a logical switch then?
when ya switch it ON the value is 100% ya switch it of the calue is -100%, that is the normal way a switch works.
plus ya fly mode 5? on a SkyJibs? I fly copter too MK and acros but in mode 2 ... in mode five means ya have throttle self-centered like the other stick too?
sorry I don't get what ya want.

shad some light please

Hi. Ok sorry I was vague but I am not the best in explaining stuff but as you fly copters then you may understand it better by if I said during the motor initialisation command I give a servo (13 on B20) 100% to turn on 'Strobon' lights and then when I land and carry out the combined stick command to shut down the lights go off.

Yep I only fly Copters so Centre stick for me is perfect. Mode 5

(aerialvue.co.uk)

getting closer, and be sure it's not you so bare with me as well pls

stick combi means you go sth like
right stick full down full right
at same time parallel
left stick full down full left
this is to initialise system and then both sticks go back to center

with this command 'fires' for first time you want to set a value for anther channel eg. strobes to 100% and it should lock / remain 100% when sticks release this command and go centered
until you do this stick command again (or any other specified stick command) and the value for strobes shall switch to -100% and it shuld lock / remain -100%

am I in the right direction?

best, guido

Yep thats what I want

Also to start and stop flight timer and logging… is that possible?
