Button on the TQ to change modes?

[Howard]

Bob or Michael-

Is there a button on the Throttle Quadrant, like on the Pro Throttle, to change modes?

Thanks,
Howard

No, but you can script one.

I have tried, but unsuccessfully. Could you or Bob please post a sample script to assign this function to one of the TQ buttons?

Thanks a lot,

Hi Howard,

There's some info in the Users Guide back in the CMS Programming Guide titled "Setting the Mapper Mode" that talks about it. Also in the CMS Programming Guide section with the sample scripts, look at Sample #2. It's basically a matter of setting the "Mode Control" on the Program Settings Tab to "CMS", then manipulating the CURRENTMODE variable with the CMS script to select the mode you want. How did you want the modes to work? Just cycle through all 4 of them, or did you want to use specific switches to set particular modes or...? Which tab is the TQ on in your map?

Thanks Bob, I will figure it out. My father passed away this last Saturday and I have been in a whirlwind ever since and not even able to think straight. He was 89, and except for the past year, he was in real good health, lived in his own place and was able to care for himself. That's how we will remember him.

Hi Howard,

I'm very sorry to hear that, Howard. I'm sure it's a difficult time for you. Please accept my condolences to your and your family over your loss.

As for the mode thing, whenever you get around to it, you know where we are if you need some help. Right now I'm sure you have other things to attend to

Best regards,

- Bob

Thanks Bob,

That really means a lot to me - You don't know much. It's really nice to have friends.

Thanks so much,
Howard
