Remote Controller Settings

Good to know it still works after 4 years

It works very good.

Yes, its just a pulse, because there is no way to tell how long a toggle button on the remote controller is pressed. You can add your own delay if you want to.

how does the push mode for the hotkeys work? is it just a pulse?

Thanks

Fixed hotkey toggle state changing when reconnecting, if the remote controller's hotkey was toggled while it was disconnected. This made at least one person happy after waiting for a year since asking me to fix it.

I forgot to say there are no key press and release events as you call them, there is only a toggle event. The toggle state changes on key press.

You have to implement momentary with your own logic, this can be done with a delay.

It is not possible to get how long the hotkey is held down, because it is toggle on the controller and I can only notice the change from off to on or on to off again. I decided not to implement the delay myself because it is not a perfect solution and can feel weird to the user.

Only the 4 axis can be push if you set them to 100% and use threshold gates, like you probably have done.

Hope that helps!

How hard would it be to add a third mode to the hot keys for momentary?

I looked in the LUA code and its way beyond me, I also considered how to modify the output with my own micro-controller, but I effectively need a key press and key release event to do it.

The reason I ask is I want to use this as remote for a rather complex crane which uses fourteen buttons to work, four groups of winches, two of those groups also have a pair of buttons for synchronised operation and two liner sliders.

I can convert the WASD / Arrow keys to momentary using threshold gates, but I'm stuck with the hotkeys being either toggle on, or a single pulse.

Glad you like it!
