I want to switch between more than 2 scenes in a panel with a virtual variable, but no succes. With 2 scenes it works fine. How can I switch between more than 2 scenes?

Hi,

which version of PCAN-Explorer 5 do you use? Can you please provide more details about you used panel, symbol file etc. With the given information we are unable to help you.

regards

Michael

Hello Michael,

Thanks for the fast reply!

I am using PCAN explorer ver. 5.0.4.641 and instruments panel ver. 3.0.4.321. For the symbol editor I am using format 5.0.

The major problem is that when i make a virtual variable to switch between different scenes only the value 0 and 1 are accepted as scene switch command/value. I created the switching value by a button with a push and release value (in this case equal) in a virtual variable (decimal value).

maybe you have an example of the scene switching function. The alternative I am trying now is to make a "virtual" CAN message with the value for the switching value.

If you need more information pls let me know.

Kind regards and thanks in advantage,

Ino

Hi,

as a first step, please download the latest version 5.4 from the startpage (news section) of PCAN-Explorer and install it. Next please don`t use a bit variable for switching the scenes. Use an unsigned variable, to be able to have more than 2 possibilities.

regards

Michael.
