# Output Table Syntax

## Overview

Outputs are only used in mix scripts. The output table defines only name(s), the actual values are determined by the script's [run function](https://luadoc.edgetx.org/lua-api-programming/run-function-syntax).

```lua
{ "<name1>", "<name2>" }
```

Example:

```lua
local output { "Val1", "Val2" }

local function run()
    return 0, -1024 -- these values will be available in OpenTX as Val1 and Val2
end

return {output=output, run=run}
```

## Notes:

* Output name is limited to four characters.
* A maximum of 6 outputs are supported
* Number Format Outputs are 16 bit signed integers when they leave Lua script and are then divided by 10.24 to produce output value in percent:

| Script Return Value | Mix Value in OpenTX |
| ------------------- | ------------------- |
| 0                   | 0%                  |
| 996                 | 97.2%               |
| 1024                | 100%                |
| -1024               | -100%               |
