Is this a momentary button (R13-523a) or an on-off switch???

[ramonster]

Could someone tell me if this is a momentary button or an on-off switch.

I need a momentary (pulse) button for my midibox with a led. I think this one will do, but i'm not sure.

Does the term off/(on) mean it's a momentary button?

Hi!

I´m not really shure, but.... looks like on/off switch......

....I think it won´t work..... just my opinion ::)

... I think, if you take "A" (function), it's momentary

What exactly do you want to do with that switch...? ???

I want to have 7 buttons (x 3 tracks).

6 start buttons and 1 stop button (per track)

the 6 start buttons should act like radio buttons (max.1 led on)

pushing the stop buttons should turn all leds (of the track) off.

The 6 start buttons (per track) should send a midi-event to my ableton live.

Greets,

Hmmm...

.... you´ll need a digiswitch, but I don´t really know what you mean with "momentary"...

sorry,

"momentary" switch, a switch that doesn't latch to it's position after it's been actuated - ie. the switch only momentarily changes it's state.

Bye, Moebius

Yes, exactly.

Is it true that a latching switch is defined by off/on

and a non-latching switch by off/(on)

?

[pwx]

Thanx moebius...

Now I know that I was right thinking about that switch ;D
