            have installed the module, just small maybe stupid question. (i have no skills in electronics)
            when you talk about pin 24, pin 25, do you mean GPIO24 - GPIO25 ?

              Hello Power Users,

              i also have a problem with MMM-Buttons, that Buttonpress is only sometimes recognized if i press twice or triple.

              Intension:
              I want to change MMM-Pages with to buttons, to move left/right through my pages.
              MMM-Remote-Control is set up and works.
              Moving through pages work bei MMM-Remote-Control Links and sendnotification.

              My setup:
              Raspberry 1 B+
              2 Buttons (circuit closed when pressed)
              connected between 1: GND an BCM26; 2: GND and BMC20
              I tested the buttons with a python script an they are recognized

              I searched this forum and still have some questions.

              1. Do Buttons on GND work or do i have to put them on +3,3V with a resistor instead?
              2. how do i use activeLow in MMM-Buttons Configuration? … activeLow: true ?

              Looking forward getting some tips.

              Regards AxLed

                Maybe play around with the min and max Presstime.

                connected between 1: GND an BCM26; 2: GND and BMC20
                I tested the buttons with a python script an they are recognized

                Wondering that this works with the module… when u press the Button the gpio would be set to low which is equal to 0.

                1. Do Buttons on GND work or do i have to put them on +3,3V with a resistor instead?
                2. how do i use activeLow in MMM-Buttons Configuration? … activeLow: true ?

                Afaik this isn’t possible through the module. Maybe u find a solution in the web, fo how changing the input state detection.

                And yes, u should use resistors for giving the GPIO a defined state when not pressing. When u don’t want to connect them physically (but i recommend) u could use the internal resistors (check below on this site http://wiringpi.com/the-gpio-utility/)

                So normal way (or the way i used) is to connect the button like this:

                  Thanks for the tips, you made my day, it works now.
                  What i did: Changed the wiring from negativ (GND) to 3.3V (with resistor) as shown on picture of cruunnerr wiring diagram.

                  No i try to get a rotary switch and got it working, as i need some WAF (Woman acceptance faktor) for my mirror.

                  Regards

                      Your wiring diagram is fantastic. Is that a program?
