Re: Detection of a held button event

Hello, Thank you again for giving this issue so much of your time. When the set up fails the LED's I added wont change state with any input I have added. I have not yet read thought the info in the link in your last message. But, in-between our messages I built a similar simpler set up with another ...

Re: Detection of a held button event

Hi, I agree with you that the code failing seems unlikely. So, I added the led indication as another way to observe function. When it's locked up I can see the activation of the Adafruit cap touch board, which is powered thought the Pico, by way of the LED's built in. So it seems that the problem is...

Re: Detection of a held button event

Thank you! That is what I was missing! Now that I have access to the modules I just have to learn how to use them.

Drag and drop yields no perceivable result and with Thonny I get: 'Error inst...

Hello, I am new to programming and trying to write a simple script that will change the state of a relay based on which of two touch sensors is touched for x seconds. I was able to achieve this with Python 3 and GPIOzero but I can seem to replicate it in micropython. This is the script I am trying t...
