Re: Power on/off button
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýHmmm.. that's a new one to me and thanks for mentioning it.? That said, I use a modified version of this older-style shutdown method mentioned at .? My concern for the new way is I had a considerable amount of false shutdowns with the original script so I added both software debouncing and also a required 5 second hold-down of the button to ensure it's a) not a glitch / RFI / etc and you REALLY want the Pi to go down.? I also see this new approach defaults to the use of the GPIO pin#3 which is also the I2C SCL signal.? That's a serious bummer as I personally use I2C all the time for say RTC chips, LCD displays, etc. but fortunately, this is reconfigurable to GPIO#1 though that will impact reading of HATT ID eproms. --David KI6ZHD On 08/20/2023 09:35 AM, Scott Eckert

I needed an easy power ON/OFF button on my RPi4B and came across this approach at??which worked great. It does the equivalent of "shutdown" command. Read the link for additional info before implementing. |
