A new beginner with Pypilot !

Can you give details of your wiring?

The buttons can be shorted to GND to trigger them. Can you test and verify the state changes by running the "gpio" command?


I have considered different possible options over and over again, and essentially concluded that wired buttons are not the most useful at least for the hardware I intend to produce in the future. I offer 433mhz RF remote controls, but essentially in the future intend to produce various wireless keypads using either 433mhz or wifi. The current wired buttons require a wire per button and are therefore a lot of wires to implement. A wireless solution, even if wired (for power) or using aaa batteries (can last years) is more versatile.

For homebuilt setups, the wired buttons may prove more convenient as it avoids needing the additional arduino to support reliable 433mhz reception.
