Push button, what delay can I expect ?

[Pierre]

Hi,

I have succeeded in downloading the 1.00.139 plugin, licensing, connecting my Mega through ethernet, and declaring pins for I/O.
I have now a test board with a simple push button and a led.

What delay should I expect for HS to notice the pushbutton ?
I was hoping to count the presses as I used to with another I/O card, but it seems that I have to keep the button pressed for almost a second so that it can trigger an event or increment a counter for example.
Is this due to the arduino design by itself, the plugin, or my poor skills in both?

What is your denounce time? I will try and test what you are doing but 1 sec is long. I will see if I can get time in the next day or two.

I dont have your code handy, at work. Do you use interrupts or scan inputs ? I think you scan them dont you ?

Yes they are scanned so you can configure any pin.

I have now a complete setup running with inputs, relays and analogs .
I have tested many values for debounce delay.
Input delay is for sure greater than a second.
A rapid test is to set a small event to increment a HS counter when a button is pushed.
The delay is way to long to use double-press and long-press as we do for lights scenes at home for many years, even longer than it used to be with the JDS-Stargate that was in the first setup, 20 years ago.
WAF is low...

The plugin is great, and easy to use.
I just wish I could find more easily the pin number of a device, now that I changed its name.
