Title: GPIO input from a PiHat to trigger a Sequence in XLights
Post by: twireless on October 21, 2019, 12:31:36 PM

I have a bunch of Pi's using FPP 2.7 and having PiHat connected.  I know I can configure an input on the GPIO to trigger an event within the FPP but I would like to have a push button start a sequence on the XLights.  All of the Pi's are running in Bridge Mode.   Where can I find information on this, and can it be done?

Thank you

So you are using xschedule as your show player? You can add an event which will listen to the fpp event and take an action based on it.

Where might I find information on exactly how to do that?   Any ideas?

Last September’s advanced xschedule video covers events.
