LUA ipc.writeLvars question

[STF-DIR]

Hello,

some questions about LUA and ipc.writeLvars()

I have started the lua script read lvars includet in the FSUIPC and also the log function of FSUIPC.

Now i have loaded the FSX PMDG 737 NGX.

Ok, thats the setup.

Now lets take the Button for the left Engine were i can select "GRD","OFF", "cont" and "FLY".

Wen i now turn the knob to the left the LUA Display says "L:ngx_switch_119_a=0", after the first turn to the right "L:ngx_switch_119_a=10" and so on.

Now..how can i set the Button state via ipc.writeLvars ?

I have testet

ipc.writeLvars("L:ngx_switch_119_a",0)

ipc.writeLvars("L:ngx_switch_119_a",10)

and

ipc.writeLvars("ngx_switch_119_a",0)

ipc.writeLvars("ngx_switch_119_a",10)

ipc.writeLvars("ngx_switch_119_a",30)

nothing worked for me.

What did i wrong here?

How can i set the Button position directly ?

Thanks

Matthias

Are the values you read base 10 or base2? Most controls like that have parameters of 0,1,2,3 (00, 01, 10, 11 base 2 ).

Try sending 1, 2 or 3 as the parameter.

I just noticed... the command format is " ipc.writeLvar( ) " remove the"s" from your statements!
