Detailed instructions and wiring diagrams for the boneIO controller, including power, inputs, outputs, and communication buses.

Connecting Digital Inputs

Digital inputs are used to connect buttons and sensors. To change the potential used to control the inputs, use the switch on the casing marked INPUTS. By default, the inputs are controlled by ground (GND).

IMPORTANT: If you want to change the position of the switch - make sure you do it while the device is turned off!

  1. Connect one of the wires from a momentary switch to the common GND (ground) terminal.
  2. Connect the other wire to the desired input terminal (e.g., IN01).
  3. Pressing the switch will short the input to ground, which will be interpreted as an "on" signal.
