For example, suppose all pins are set as

INPUT pins, but only pin 2

and 1 have a 5 V logic high (1) signal, then only these two pins
return “

1” and the rest “0”. Sending GPIO? command will return: 3.

The complete 8-bit binary would be

00000011.

Note if there are output pins configured, those pins are ignored and
will have the value “

0”.

OUTPUT

To setup any of the 8 pins (except pin 5) as output pins, the remote
command

GPIO:DIR is used. All pins (except pin 5) are represented

as 8-bits binary, according to Table 5 above. A “

1” represents

OUTPUT, and a “0” represents INPUT. When using the GPIO:DIR
command, the decimal representation of the 8-bits binary is used.

For example, to set pins 8, 6, and 3 as

OUTPUT pins, their values

must be set to

1, and the rest 0. Send:


GPIO:DIR 84

84 is used to represent 01010100 in binary. Only pins 8, 6, and 3
have the value “

1”, which represents OUTPUT.

Digital output for representing logic high (1) is 5 V, and for logic low
