Hi. I'd like to ask, why my program reacts just when the redstone signal goes form true to false? Is possible to make the opposite? Thanks.
My code

Spoiler


function getPos()
	print("Checking")
	repeat
		local rWhite = redstone.testBundledInput("right", colors.white)
		local rOrange = redstone.testBundledInput("right", colors.orange)
		local rMagenta = redstone.testBundledInput("right", colors.magenta)
   	 event, param  = os.pullEvent()
		if event == "redstone" then
			if rWhite then
				cabPos = 0
				print("I'm 1")
				return cabPos
			elseif rOrange then
				cabPos = 1
				print("I'm 2")
				return cabPos
			elseif rMagenta then
				cabPos = 2
				print("I'm 3")
				return cabPos
				   end
		end
	until (rWhite or rOrange or rMagenta) == true
end

By saying

rWhite = redstone.testBundledInput("right",colors.white)

You are basically saying "make a new variable called rWhite and make it equal to whatever is returned by redstone.testBundledInput("right",colors.white).

You should remove the parntheses and move the call of the function down so


local rWhite = redstone.testBundledInput

And


if rWhite("right", colors.magenta) then

do this for all colors ofcourse.
