which object i should use for wireless button

[chenliuyang1989]

Hi，now i have a wireless button to support bacnet，it has click ,double click and long press click event.
and i am confused to select which object,
MI is not appropriate i think，do you have some advices，thanks

I would take 3 BI (one for each event). BI are easier to process further.
MI are for defined system states e.g. Forward,Reverse,Stop

Thanks for your quick response，and Happy new year！
This is one better option than MI。

These states are edge triggered which means the status will not keeping。
This is just status at one moment，and can also call just one event, is there any other options?
Thanks

You can optionally add a counter so you can detect missing events, reboots or network outages.

A BACnet Multi-state Input object could also be used to help reduce network jitter which can occur with only momentary button press-release states that rely on timing between press/release. States could be:

• released = 1
• press = 2
• double press = 3
• hold = 4

If the button is not momentary and is instead a toggle button, the BACnet Binary Input can be reliably used and press/release simply toggles the state active/inactive for every release.
