How to wire up six 3PDT switches to the T-Display board? #215

Closed SD456 closed 3 years ago

SD456 commented 3 years ago

Hello,

I would like to ask a basic question, how should I wire six 3PDT switches to be able to use as midi controller? I have a TTGO T-Display board.

Thanks for the help!

For each 3DPT connect one pole (the external row of pins) to a digital pin (D1, D2,... D6) and the central pin to GND.

Thanks for the reply. Should I use ladder configuration, or just connect them to the board pins?

The original schematic only contains 5 switches in ladder configuration, but I would like to use 6, how can I achieve this?

Also, I would like to use an external expression pedal too.

Connect the first to D1, the second to A1, the third to D2, the forth to A2 and so on. Configure the first 3 pedals as Momentary 2 and you still have 3 ports available.

Okay, thanks for the help, I will try this!
