GPIO`s disabled

[ddbkva]

first i wanna say thank you fpr this project!!! I run the 1.0 installation script everythink is working fine except the gpios! Sometimes i cant enable the gpios. Sometimes i can, but not for long time (if i switch in the home menu). If i enabled them, and switch to another menu point there are disabled and i cant enabled them twice. How i can set it to allways on like rfid reader? thank you for your work! i would something donate!

Hi @ddbkva, did you test the gpio's after enabling? Maybe it's an issue on the Website so the gpios working and it is only a "display problem"? Please have a look on the documentation: https://github.com/MiczFlor/RPi-Jukebox-RFID/blob/master/docs/GPIO-BUTTONS.md and https://github.com/MiczFlor/RPi-Jukebox-RFID/blob/master/docs/CONFIGURE-stretch.md#systemdautostart

In short: sudo cp /home/pi/RPi-Jukebox-RFID/misc/sampleconfigs/gpio-buttons.service.stretch-default.sample /etc/systemd/system/gpio-buttons.service sudo systemctl daemon-reload sudo systemctl enable gpio-buttons (optional)

This will make GPIO a SystemService so it should work in Background. Please check with: sudo systemctl start gpio-buttons sudo systemctl status gpio-buttons

Please let us know what happend ;) Kind regards

i try connect my arcarde buttons to the rasperry. I would like to install an on / off switch, but the button. How i can connect the gpios for an power switch ?

Use Pin 5 and 6.

[ddbkva]

pin 5 6 means gpio 3 and ground ?

[zxa]

Yes.

[ddbkva]

should i test my gpio`s ?

Please run the script with

/home/pi/RPi-Jukebox-RFID/scripts/gpio-buttons.py

and post the output here.

next track is working but power not

[zxa]

What is not working, power on or power off?

Can you please post the content of your /scripts/gpio-buttons.py

[ddbkva]

sorry everything its working i have to hold the power button for 2 sec! and this is not up to date in the description shut = Button(3, hold_time=2) vol0 = Button(13)
volU = Button(16,pull_up=True) volD = Button(19,pull_up=True) next = Button(26) prev = Button(20) halt = Button(21)

Nice,so this issue may be closed.
