Hello,

I am currently working on my cab : some cosmetic restoration and enable some features (that I should have done 8 years ago...).

I have installed the ledwiz plugin in mala/plugins/ledwiz.mplugin
I have installed the ocx.

I configured all my button using the config wizard, but when I started Mala, instead of having all button lit like before, instead, I get a short animation on all buttons, then they are all turned off. When I start a game, again a short animation, they all off. same thing when I exit the Mala.

I have noticed that my config file is empty, or at least almost.
I don't have any info about all the button that were configured.

Any idea what is going on?

I have done a search on this forum and also on google, but can't find anything useful.

I know I could probably edit a text file myself, but it would be easier with the configurator...

Jay :cry:

I took the plugin from this location:
http://malafe.net/index.php?page=plugins

as the link in the wiki seems to be down...

another note: all my button are single color and using the maximum brightness in the configurator (48) and all on USB1.

And I can see that the file is updated by its time and date.

I tries the program on my laptop (regular hi-def screen vs TV crt on my cab).
And just noticed that there are checkboxes to enable the different buttons's led.

I'm pretty sure that this is the problem...

I'll report back later tonight if I get a free 1/2hr with the kids.

All right,
I've got it working.

It was that checkbox column that I didn't saw at first.
