I've used several panels GF,CH, and Saitek.  By accident, I found a solution,  I have to set a button to on, on the APU, and another button to start, then it will go to start but not without setting it on "on" first..

Gnacino

I have it set to 1 button in my Saitek throttle quadrant in this way in LINDA:

On Press-
QW OH ELE APU start

On Release-
QW OH ELE APU on

I hope it helps you.

As mentioned, the QW787 APU start is a 2 stage operation. You need to first switch the APU on before selecting start. In future releases, I have modified the QW_OH_ELE_APU_start() function to check if the switch is off and select on before attempting to start.

Hello everybody.

I use Thrustmaster Hotas Warthog...

 And i set APU button in my joistick throttle in LINDA:
On Press-
QW OH ELE APU on

On repeat

QW OH ELE APU start

On Release-
QW OH ELE APU off.

APU start not working. Button stuck on "APU on" position. Don`t know why?

Why "On repeat" is not working?((

Any ideas?

Landing lights (HotasWarthog).

I set "all landing lights" on 1 button in my joistick in LINDA, but when i press a button lading lights are switching on one by one, not all at once. Need press a button 3 times to switch on all the landing lights.

Fuction QW_OH_LDG_ALL_on ()
    QW_OH_LDG_LEFT_on()
    QW_OH_LDG_NOSE_on()
    QW_OH_LDG_RIGH

You can not use the functions on a single button as you describe. The sequence you use will turn the APU power on with OnPress and start it if the button is held. However, assign the APU off function to OnRelease will simply negate any attempt to start the APU. Either remove the OnRelease assignment or better still use the Cycle or Toggle functions. 

Note the 777 APU Start is only momentary ie. rotate to Start and release. The APU will continue its start up sequence.

The ALL function is working correctly. A single OnPress call will call each in sequence (left, nose, right) with a short delay in between. This mimics the pilot moving each switch in turn. You should not need to press the button multiple times.

OK) May be something wrong. I`ll check it again, but in my case ALL function is switch on left Landing light only. Will check it and advise.

[KVAZEMODO 1]

Hmmm. Just check it. I don`t know why, but when i press an ALL landing lights it switch on the left landing light only, when i press one more time it switch on the nose landing light, and finally, switch on the right landing light from the 3d time.

Linda settings below. May be it depends on the joystick?)) I am not sure.

Please edit actions.lua for QW787 (click on Edit and Actions.lua buttons) and search for Landing Lights _ALL functions. Insert ipc.sleep(100) after each line. This will allow a short delay allowing functions to be called cleanly.

[KVAZEMODO 1]

OK) Thank you!!! Will edit and report.

[KVAZEMODO 1]

If is right here, not working(((

function QW_OH_LDG_ALL_on ()
    QW_OH_LDG_LEFT_on()
    ipc.sleep(100)
    QW_OH_LDG_NOSE_on()
    ipc.sleep(100)
    QW_OH_LDG_RIGHT_on()
    ipc.sleep(100)
end

May be i did not correct))

Your edit is correct. Try testing the function by opening in Editor and Right Clicking on the function name. You should see the name display on the top line as it actions. Also try the _ALL_toggle function.

[KVAZEMODO 1]

So, tried to test. 

When i set button All toggle, working left landing light only. Can`t understand why. When i set all landing lights, i need to push 3 times on the button to switch on the landing lights. It`s switching in turn, not all together. first push = left landing light (LL), second = nose LL, 3d = right LL. Brrr, can`t understand what`s wrong((

I can see your problem. You are misunderstanding the meaning of OnPress and OnRepeat assignments. In your example pressing the assigned button will turn the landing lights on but continuing to hold the buttons own will turn the lights will turn off. You need to you the QW_OH_LDG_ALL_toggle function. One press will turn the lights on and a second will turn them off.
