¿ªÔÆÌåÓýAlan, More than expected ¨C Thanks for your work I am one of those who powers down the station at the end of the day.? ?The power down/up without this delay was causing problems with the Flex 6600. ?In the short time I have used the proper sequence to power up/down all seems as it should be.? Your flow will help eliminate my pilot error.? Thank you I have installed and connected the flows you instructed ¨C There is a minor glitch that may be caused by my particular set up.? I will email you info Thanks again, Dave K9UK ? From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Alan Blind, WA9WUD ? Dave ? As Dave, WO2X said, many of us prefer to not?remove power from the Flex Server.? We do, however, shut it off, using either the?front panel switch or the remote from the back RCA connection. ? Regardless, I wanted to take a look at your request. ? ? I uploaded a flow to do as you asked.? One problem is that there is no way to get feedback from the Flex radio that DC power has been shut off or not.? So, I added a feature to "Ping" the Flex server and I use that to set the correct sequence: ? ? ?remote shutdown Flex > wait two minutes > switch DC power off ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? or ? ?switch DC power on > wait two minutes > remote start Flex ? Regardless of the elapsed time in the sequence, the background color and text of the button will change based on Flex Server "boot" status. ?(on/off). ? Both sequences are initiated?by the push of a single button.? This ensures the user does not select the wrong sequence based on the actual status of the Flex Server (on or off). ? Dashboard controls are explained in the file instructions. ? You need to wire the two relay controls into your WO2X DLI switch.? They are Boolean, so compatible with Dave's switches.? You do need to "check" the "pass-through..." box, as shown.? ? ? Here is a suggested way to get the output from the Sequencer?Flow to the input of your DLI switch.? An example shown is for the "Power Relay". ? Alan WA9WUD ? On Fri, Oct 2, 2020 at 10:59 PM David Davis <davek9uk@...> wrote:
