[BUG] : DcsBios::Potentiometer min & max values are not limiting the travel of the in-game lever about dcs-bios-arduino-library HOT 5 OPEN

I mean bios appears to be behaving properly. When the lever is moved to the maximum value via bort or any other test tool or command, it does not reset to minimum.

There may be a bug in the arduino library calling bios - I don't know, I don't do any arduino development with bios - so I've moved the issue to that repository so those who are more familiar with this code can evaluate the issue you're experiencing.

I am not a C++ programmer, but the following snippets seem to work for me to constrain the values within input_min & input_max :

in Potentiometers.h

....
			void pollInput() {
				unsigned int state; 
				if (reverse_)
					// psjshep
//					state = map(analogRead(pin_), input_min_, input_max_, 65535, 0);
					state = map(constrain(analogRead(pin_),input_min_,input_max_), input_min_, input_max_, 65535, 0);
				else
					// psjshep
//					state = map(analogRead(pin_), input_min_, input_max_, 0, 65535);
					state = map(constrain(analogRead(pin_),input_min_,input_max_), input_min_, input_max_, 0, 65535);

There is similar logic below in the public declaration so I suppose a similar change would be needed there?

Tested with bort and appears to behave as expected. Moving this to the arduino repo

not sure what you mean by "behave as expected"?

Is the function, when supplied with a min/max, supposed to reset to the minimum when maximum is reached?

Or do you mean the PLT_FLAPS_LEVER call does move the flaps so the call behaves as expected?
