Hi , I just receive ESP32 21I/O and it work fine after I update to version 2.0.3 but I found some issue with digitalRead from output pin it will always return LOW. here is my sample code in Arduino IDE v1.8.16

void setup(){

    pinMode(Q0_0, OUTPUT); 

    digitalWrite(Q0_0, HIGH);

    Serial.println(digitalRead(Q0_0);

}

the result will be 0. And advice?

Dear Dhanate,


In the ESP32 PLC family most of the IOs work through I2C expansion chips and they do not allow to read the outputs. Although that, it is not required to read an output, if you write it with your desired state, it will have it until you change it again; you can store the state in a constant or variable and print the state when you change it, like the following example:

"""

#define HIGH_STATE HIGH

#define LOW_STATE LOW


void setup(){

    Serial.begin(9600);

    pinMode(Q0_0, OUTPUT); 

}


void loop() {

  digitalWrite(Q0_0, HIGH_STATE);

  Serial.println(HIGH_STATE);

  delay(1000);

  digitalWrite(Q0_0, LOW_STATE);

  Serial.println(LOW_STATE);

  delay(1000);

}

"""


Thank you,
