button change not detected

Recommended Posts

After a battle with initializing the Pokey Dll device on which i made a post, i found the solution

 

now the lua script loading the dll card seems working

 

the script stored in path .\\modules\linda\libs is called lib-Zpokey56U01  and is loaded with standard libs of Linda

 

here the log 

  2055204 LUA.1: POKEY56U01 Able to create PoKeys Device object
  2055220 LUA.1: POKEY56U01 Start connection in USB mode
  2055251 LUA.1: POKEY56U01 Device number is
  2055282 LUA.1: 1
  2055314 LUA.1: POKEY56U01 mounted and ready to use
  2055360 LUA.1: POKEY56U01 Panel_P5601U Lua Script Called
  2055392 LUA.1: POKEY56U01 Panel_P5601U Script started
  2055438 LUA.1: POKEY56U01 End of Panel_P5601U Main Program
 
i associated Pin 10 of the card to the Battery Switch but nothing change to P3D plane battery Status
moving my toggle switch OFF to ON or ON to OFF has no impact on the aircraft itself
i made a check with the Pokey 56U Software to see if toggle switch react when i move it from OFF to ON and ON to OFF  (to verify Cabling connection) and it is the case 
the software detect OFF/ON position of the switch
 
the Fuction section Panel_P5601U_Script is executed , but the If Test_button did not detect anything
did somebody used Pokey card with lua associated script as this and could help me to understand what are my errors or what i am missing ?
 
below my simple script 
 

thanks for your help and/or ideas
