#168550 - ghosting?
Responding to: ???'s previous message
You might probably experience ghosting, a known issue with switch matrices.

The solution is to add a diode in series of each switch. This might turn out to be bulkier than to add two cheap 74HCxxx-style shift registers and read out the dipswitch status serially.

dip-switch matrix trouble            01/01/70 00:00      
   Need more information            01/01/70 00:00      
      It's olá ...            01/01/70 00:00      
   ghosting?            01/01/70 00:00      
      Looks like ghosting            01/01/70 00:00      
         Do you have two spare pins?            01/01/70 00:00      
   Please tell us how you've wired your matrix            01/01/70 00:00      
   My working matrix schematic*            01/01/70 00:00      
      It looks OK, but...            01/01/70 00:00      
         maybe, maybe not            01/01/70 00:00      
            thats true            01/01/70 00:00      
               External resistors for speed or reading slower            01/01/70 00:00      
                  noise, yes - but            01/01/70 00:00      
                     Different use of resistors            01/01/70 00:00      
                        I could be mean            01/01/70 00:00      
                           Was actually on topic ;)            01/01/70 00:00      
                              being off-topic or not...            01/01/70 00:00      
                                 You need to show us the schematic and more            01/01/70 00:00      
                                    he did            01/01/70 00:00      
                                       Not quite enough            01/01/70 00:00      
                                          not much code to show            01/01/70 00:00      
      =) Thanks for the +1 Informative =)            01/01/70 00:00
