Digital Inputs #
Wiring Digital Inputs #
The digital inputs of NORVI EC-M11-EG-C2-LTE can be configured as both Sink and Source connections. The inverse of the digital input polar should be supplied to the common terminal.
Programming Digital Inputs #
Reading the relevant GPIO of the ESP32 gives the value of the digital input. When the inputs are in the OFF state, the GPIO goes HIGH, and when the inputs are in the ON state, the GPIO goes LOW. Refer to the GPIO allocation table in the datasheet for the digital input GPIO.
#define INPUT1 34
void setup() {
Serial.begin(115200);
Serial.println("Device Starting");
pinMode(INPUT1, INPUT);
}
void loop() {
Serial.print(digitalRead(INPUT1));
Serial.println("");
delay(500);
}
