This example PInvoke's the pigpio library. For more information see the PInvoke documentation and the pigpiod C interface documentation

.NET 6 drivers can be found at the .NET IoT Libraries API Reference.

The pigpio library also has a Python interface.

The following is an example illustrating digital inputs and outputs:

import pigpio
 
pi = pigpio.pi()
 
pi.set_mode(4, pigpio.INPUT)
pi.set_mode(17, pigpio.OUTPUT)
 
while True:
    if pi.read(4):
        pi.write(17, 1)
    else:
        pi.write(17, 0)
 
pi.stop()

It may be necessary to modify the ComfilePi's initial GPIO output state to prevent the ComfilePi from turning the outputs ON when the ComfilePi boots.

Modify the ComfilePi's /boot/config.txt file with the following configuration to set the initial IO state. See GPIO control in config.txt for more information.

gpio=4-13=ip
gpio=16=ip
gpio=17-24=op,np,dl
