Concerns: How to trigger a DOFlinx solenoid from command terminal 

 

Hi,

 

I installed DirectOutput/x64 and DOFlinx v8.18 using my Dude's cab controller, connected to 3 Chime solenoids to port 6,7,8 on device 1 (walter driver).

When i start DOFlinx.exe it create a DOFLinx.ini for me, with the 3 solenoids labelled as LINK_C1, LINK_C2 and LINK_C3.

Like this

LINK_C1 = 1006,100,500,255

LINK_C2 = 1007,100,500,255

LINK_C3 = 1008,100,500,255

 

The log shows that all is OK (I added SHOW_IN_TASKBAR =1), and when i RIGHT CLICK and select TEST_by_port,

i can trigger each solenoid fine by selecting the corresponding port number.

 

My goal is now to open the COMMAND PROMPT and activate the 3 solenoids from there (later using a batch script).

 

I tried things like:

 

DOFLinxMsg.exe LINK_C1 

DOFLinxMsg.exe 1006,100,500,255 

DOFLinxMsg.exe ACTION 1006,100,500,255 

etc

But i cannot find the actual commands i need to enter ANYWHERE ...

 

I am missing something ?

 

I see the event end up in the DOFLINX log, so it all seems to work properly.

 

 

Any help is greatly appreciated.
