ADL3 Switch Input displayed on dash

Hi,

my next issue! I have the "Traction Control On/Off" Switch connected to the ADL3 and everything works fine.
If I Switch it on/off value is going from "1" to "0". I like to see the Status in the lower left row of the dash, but actual it displays "TC 0" or "TC 1" and this is confusing because the Level of the traction Control will be shown on the lower right side with "TC -5 to +5" and with a Level of "0" I will have "TC 0" on both sides of the Display. So the question is how alter the "1" and "0" to "on" and "off" in the Display.

Could someone help? ;)

I would set up two alarm conditions -- one for TC-on and one for TC-off. Make the message be "TC ON" and "TC OFF", then make it show the current value of the TC Level along with the messages.

Hi David,

thank you for your idea, but with an Alarm, the complete lower line will be overwritten, and I can't scroll up and down to see other engine data.
I think I will make a physical TellTale with an LED connected to the AUX Output, or let my SLM do the work.

But anyway, thanks for your thoughts!

Cheers, Mike :D
