Create Virtual Channel

Trying to create a virtual channel to allow use of the shiftX2 button to trigger logging and goPro.
The addChannel function is returning a nil value.

Code: Select all

ButtonId = addChannel&#40;"Sx2Button",10,0,0,100,''&#41;
if ButtonID == nil then println&#40;'it is nil'&#41; end

I simplified to the example in the addChannel function documentation.

Code: Select all

ButtonId = addChannel&#40;"EGT",1&#41;
if ButtonID == nil then println&#40;'it is nil'&#41; end

Same result.
I am using an Apex with V2.13.6 firmware.

Thanks for the help.

You may review your capital letters on ButtonId vs ButtonID...

Thank you, I had that correct in my actual script, so that wasn't my exact problem.
Similar though, I used "GetChannel()" instead of "getChannel()"
Duh...

Thanks for the response.
