Thank you to GolfCharlie and Claude Code for fixing the code to work with the newly changed FAA API! They have saved a lot of time. A new image has been created and will be uploaded today and available later tonight. If you don't want or need the image, you can visit https://github.com/markyharris/livesectional and incorporate the changes into your board now.

LCD test script - How to stop?

Version 4.381
Here are my steps.

* Turn off map
* Run LED test script.
How do I stop this script?  If I chose Run LED test script a second time, the leds stop on the current color.
The goal is to get the map to run again. Looking at testled.py, the last line is:

turnoff(strip)

The leds never turn off though. I have to reboot to get the map to display again.

What's the magic sequence for this?

Typo on title. "LED test script" is correct

The test script is a loop setup to run through the LED's 10 times (I believe its 10 times). You should be able to just wait and it will finish itself and turn off without intervention from the user. You can double check the script and change the loop counter to something lower if you prefer.

If I'm not quite answering your question, bounce back with clarification. - Mark

Thanks, I'll try again and see if it goes 10 times. Thanks! - Steve
