Cannot get M5 Buttons to work on M5Stick-C-Plus2

M5Stick-C-Plus2

It seems the "incremental" improvement of the M5Stick-CPlus to the Plus2 is more than "incremental', especially as they switched to the M5United - which definitely changes things.

Anyway, after going through some changes, I can get my main M5Stick-C-Plus application working with WIFI, MQTT, and BLE. Also the Display works nicely. So I can send MQTT messages to change the display (even a long press button A message) - so I can control the device.

But I cannot get the Button A and B to work. So I cannot control via button press (long or shot pressing of A or B).

M5 Buttons do not work

I have even loaded the sample and the buttons don't work. button.ino

Easyloader demo works!

After dusting off a Windows PC, I "Download Windows Version Easyloader"
and that version works with buttons and all.

Driver?

Only thing I don't know is if I've done correctly is loading the device driver from my Mac computer: CH9102 I actually don't know how that's done, but all my other M5 devices work nicely (M5 Atom, M5 Core 1/2, and M5 Stick C Plus 1)

Any help would be appreciated.
thanks

Hello @konacurrents

there is a button example in M5Unified library as well. Maybe that works with M5StickCPlus2?

Note: I don't have the necessary hardware to test myself.

Thanks

@felmue sadly that is the button example I mentioned also doesn't work.

So at present the new M5 Stick Plus-2 won't work as a replacement (and luckily more of the red M5 was found for our customers to use).

thanks,

Hello @konacurrents

for me both button examples (M5StickCPlus2 library / M5Unified library) work as expected.

Are you using the latest version of all the libraries used?

Thanks
