Hi!
I get the following .NET error trying to run DOFlinx.
Any fix for this?

Posted 20 October 2019 - 08:26 AM
OK, now you have a configuration error in your DOFLinx.INI. You are trying to set your RGB device to an output that does not exist as the error message says.
Do you know where your RGB device is connected? If you don't have an RGB device tghen comment out the line with a # in your DOFLinx.INI file.

Cool I don't have any RGB light so I commented it out.
But no I get another error: "LINK_item #8 trying to set device #1 to 9 needs to be in the range 1-8.

I'm only trying to get my solenoids to work.

You need to work through your DOFLinx.INI and set it up as per your cabinet configuration. If you are just trying to get your solenoids running then comment out the other LINK_xx= lines with #. You will also need to edit out any other devices and change configuration as per your cabinet setup. The INI file you are using is a sample, it needs customisation for your setup.

You will need to discover which of your toys are connected to which output. The easiest way is to:
- Start DOFLinx with DEBUG=1
- Right-click and select "Test Device"
- Work through each output device and port testing the output
- Document the results
- Now you know what is connected where and can setup your DOFLinx.INI file
Hmmmm. I have no way of right clicking the debug window, it vanishes as soon as I click okay on the DOFlinx critical error about LINK_item #8
Posted 20 October 2019 - 03:55 PM
I was able to test all my coils now and come up with the following.
DEVICE 1 Port 2: Gear motor Port 6: Large solenoid Port 7: small solenoid front Port 8: small solenoid front #2 DEVICE 2 Port 1: shaker Port 2: pop 1 Port 3: pop 2 Port 4: pop 3 Port 5: Right flipper Port 6: Left flipper Port 7: Right sling Port 8: Left sling
Would someone be kind and translate that into the following INI so I can copy it?
I tried but it didn't work.

Great news.
The shaker should not pulsate. in the FX3 scripting the shaker is used occasionally for on field effects and for nudging. All I can think of is that you might somehow be triggering the nudge unintentionally. Are you by any chance using Ctrl keys for flippers or some other function, also the space key for anything? (Ctrl keys are the default FX3 nudge buttons for L and right nudge, space is the default forward nudge)
