Introduction
evive has an inbuilt 5-way navigation key, which is used to navigate through evive menu based system. The navigational key has 4 directions:
- Left
- Right
- Up
- Down.
This information is provided by the analog pin A11.
The 5th direction is centre-press. The centre switch is connected to the digital pin 19 in active HIGH mode. This means that if the switch is pressed, then pin 19 is HIGH; otherwise the pin is LOW.
The table below shows the values for their corresponding directions:
| DIRECTION | ANALOG VALUE RANGE |
| Up | 205-215 |
| Right | 405-415 |
| Down | 605-615 |
| Left | 835-845 |
Example
In this example we will read the state of the 5-way navigation key and display it on the TFT Screen.
Below is the Arduino sketch:
