need help finding a type of switch

[lumley32]

right i have done the same on my outfit, i use a standard push button, you need to increase the blanking window in DTASwin i use around half a second 500ms but you might want less for sprinting

after all you cant need to change gear that often!

you dont need a load cell, even translogic use a standard push to make.

I use a translogic sensor/loadcall (well its a micro switch in a rod) perhaps load cell is the wrong term?

[lumley32]

a load cell is not a switch its a sensor, it tells you how much load is being passed throw it. you can use them for that but its over kill and you need a Wheatstone bridge of some sort to get it back to a digital signal

i have a switch on my left hand thumb for the gear change i just weight the lever with my foot and then push the button 40ms later we have a higher gear! i had problems with gear link sensors triggering when i diffident want to on bumpy tracks!

Im sure there are switches available that make a momentary contact as you push, but only momentary even if you hold the button down.

Cant recall the name of them though

That's exactly what I need.

Reason for needing this switch is for my shift cut signal.

My s60 is on a prostreet motorcycle and we use our horn button to activate the shift cut and air shifter.

Problem is even setting the shift cut to "kill time only" if you hold the shift button slightly too long it kills the motor longer than what's set.

So a button like described will keep shift kill more consistant and remove human error of holding the button too long.

As lumley32 has said you only need a standard momentary push button but you must tick the delay only box in the settings and then set your delay.(trial and error for this)
The ignition is cut at the start of the signal and only cut for the time that you put in even if the button is held down.
