Sorry Gary I meant that the names are NOT OUTPUT5 & OUTPUT6.

Sorry Gary I meant that the names are NOT OUTPUT5 & OUTPUT6.

Are the outputs configured to "OUTPUT5" and "OUTPUT6" or something other than that? My code works for an output configured as the generic "number", Marty's works for one configured as an internal function

Thank you

Have you read the Acorn install manual? The procedure is in there on page 50. Please take the time to read the install manual as it will answer all the basic setup questions for inputs and outputs. Then read the VCP manual, it will help you customize those output buttons.

When they are configured as OUTPUT5 & OUTPUT6, then my macros will work, assuming you change the "2" in the example to 5 and 6.

Shawn,
A close relative bought me this shirt. Not sure what she meant by it!!!
By the way that you for the reference.

Thank you VERY much Gary. I will try it again on Monday.
Thank you Marty for your links.
