In SX Microcontrollers, SX/B Compiler and SX-Key Tool, Jon Williams wrote: If you're using the internal pull-up then your [normally-open] button should be connected between the I/O pin and ground (Vss). Make sure that your button pin is an input -- if it's made an output and high while the button is pressed you'll have a short between the pin and ground. For this reason we often recommend putting a 220-ohm resistor between the pin and the button. ---------- End of Message ---------- You can view the post on-line at: http://forums.parallax.com/forums/default.aspx?f=7&p=1&m=105385#m105393 Need assistance?
