Switches not populating
Switches not populating
Hello, I’m new to this group and new to Open TX but not new to the wonderful world of RC.
I decided that I have already waited to long to learn Open TX but better late then never. Anyways I have a problem and I have searched and searched with no luck.
I have been watching all of Painless 360 videos on setting up the Taranis. I got to the point where I wanted to activate a switch for flight mode’s. The problem I’m having is when I go to the input screen and try to make channel 5 a switch, it only shows s1 and s2 and the left and right stick. I wanted to turn on the upper right 3position (SG I believe, going off memory) but that switch is at an option, none of the other switches are an option. I also tried through the Companion. I’ll attach a picture. Thank you for your help.

Re: Switches not populating
You probably somehow managed to set the type of all switches to None in radio settings-Hardware.
Re: Switches not populating
If so, that is the reason it should be hidden

Re: Switches not populating
No point, he obviously didn't go any manually set them to none obviously or he'd know it. But could have been with poor manipulations with companion, like changing radio type repeatedly with the document open...
Re: Switches not populating
In my opinion that means at least some kind of warning should be implemented.
Or don't allow changing the radio type when a document is open.

Re: Switches not populating
Thank you for the thoughts guys. Not sure why the picture wasn’t included, I’ll try again. Sounds like maybe I need to reload the latest software. If you click the picture it will have the correct orientation.

Re: Switches not populating
What is needed to verify that switches are set is this:
(Note tx is QX7, so no SE,SG switch.)Dean
