Lua code writing help needed please using LINDA/FSUIPC

[stinger2k2]

Hi all,

Can a LUA expert have a look at this for me please to see what I am doing wrong...

The aircraft I am working with is the Carenado Phenom 300.

This is what I see in the LINDA tracer when right click the ALT SEL knob in the aircraft VC to switch between altitude increments of 100 or 1000.


[S] Watching new LVar: H850XPAltWheelPUSHTOGGLE = 0
[L] LVar: H850XPAltWheelPUSHTOGGLE = 1
[L] LVar: H850XPAltWheelPUSHTOGGLE = 0
[L] LVar: H850XPAltWheelPUSHTOGGLE = 1

This is the LUA function I wrote .....

function alt_incr_toggle_100 ()
ipc.writeLvar("HP850XPAltwheelPUSHTOGGLE", 1)
end
function alt_incr_toggle_1000 ()
ipc.writeLvar("HP850XPAltwheelPUSHTOGGLE", 0)
end

I then assigned this onto a button in LINDA using the fields ON PRESS and ON RELEASE.

However when I watch the same Lvar in the tracer while pushing and releasing the assigned button the tracer shows no change? LINDA sees the button as working (i.e when I push the button LINDA moves to assign button position 30)

This is similar code that I have written for other switch functions and they work ok.

Any ideas?
