I have solved the problem: My Bad! I had mixed up the mappings for the Default and Alt Button Mappings: Sorry!

[quote userid="73730" url="~/f/nordic-q-a/39836/disable-default-pca10056-board-button-handling"]I have tried to move SW7 to the ALT positon and use the alternate Pins for BUTTON_1 (11) and BUTTON_2 (12), but that does not work either.[/quote]

Have you connect something to P1.07(39) and P1.08(40) ?

By default this switch should be in the "Def" position, and the physical "Button 1" and "Button 2" is connected to pin P0.11 and P0.12. Are these working for you?

Hello Sigurd,

Thanks for your fast reply, and sorry for my late reply: I got caught up in tons of other stuff I also needed to take care of: I am doing a project where we are testing nRF52840 :-)

Thanks for the tip on using NRF_GPIO_PIN_MAP(1,7)!

Yes I am testing with P1.07(39) and P1.08(40).

<<So what behavior are you seeing with BUTTON_1 and BUTTON_2, nothing works ?>>

Well, nothing happens: I try to set a break point in the event handlers, but code never gets there.

What I do see though, when measuring the current, is that even though I have Pull Ups on all Button Ports , I do not see increased current when I push the Button 1 & 2: That I do see on button 3 & 4: And for Button 3, the code does stop at any break point I set in the Event Handler.

So what do you think is the problem?

Hi,

[quote user=""]*** All this works on the Dongle, but on the PCA10056 (1.0.0 2018.35) only BUTTON_3 & BUTTON_4 works. ***[/quote]

So what behavior are you seeing with BUTTON_1 and BUTTON_2, nothing works ?

[quote user=""]#define BUTTON_1 39
#define BUTTON_2 40 [/quote]

You are testing with P1.07(39) and P1.08(40), correct ?

PS: It might be better to use the NRF_GPIO_PIN_MAP() macro for mapping port and pin numbers.

Snippet:

#define BUTTON_1       NRF_GPIO_PIN_MAP(1,7)
