MCG Pro Folding trigger clarification request

Can someone from VKB confirm how the folding trigger is supposed to work?

I can get it to register as button 24 when flipped fully up (safe?)
I get no response when it is flipped down (armed?)
I get a response when pulled slightly (button 25)
I get a response when pulled fully (button 26)

Is that correct? Or is the "armed" position supposed to be registering when it is flipped down?

Will try my best.
Before going to the point, have you updated the FW late last week?

Yes - firmware updated, "defaulted", and re-calibrated as per the instructions.

Sorry for messing with you about firmwares, I know it's annoying but last night we uploaded a newest FW where a nasty bug was combed out.
Highly recommended.
Talking about your particular problem, please remind me whether you had uploaded the screenshots according to http://forum.vkb-sim.pro/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=2762 this?

There's no change in the behaviour with the 91F firmware.

Flipped up = button press
Flipped down = nothing
Slight pull = button press
Full pull = button press

To re-state my question, is there supposed to be a button press registering when flipping down to the armed position? Frankly you should not need my screenshots to tell me how VKB intended this stick to work. What I'm experiencing might be what they've intended, I'd just like to know.

Thanks

I apologize for being off radar for more than a week.
FW has been updated already a couple of times since then.
There is 92-something now. Please update.
I will look into your question first thing next morning, no energy in my cells for tonight :(
I'll be back tmrw.

To everyone wondering about some buttons' functions, triggers and alike - please wait, we are testing the new FW that would answer most of your Qs and probably widen the functionality a lil bit.
Hope it can go live before weekend USA time.
