·have a robot with 2 switches hooked up into ports 1 and 2 on the BOE.

I am using Variables
btn1
btn2

and this coding for the checking of the switches

BUTTON 1,0,255,250,btn1,0,noswitch for switch 1
BUTTON 2,0,255,250,btn2,0,noswitch for switch 2

it does not recognize either of them when I try them

any advice?

How are your switches connected? You need to have a pullup or pulldown resistor depending on how you've got the switch connected. The "What's a Microcontroller?" tutorial shows how.

i have a pulldown resistor for both-they both work when it only checks one btn-btn1

but it only hits one reaction sequence

Since you only gave the two BUTTON statements, it's impossible to tell how they're used. Keep in mind that they have to be executed repeatedly for the debounce and repeat stuff to work. You want them to branch to your action code when the button is pressed and otherwise repeat both (if neither one is pressed).

Why not use the IF & THEN statement

IF (IN1 = 1) AND/OR (IN2 = 1) THEN

GOSUB Routines here



ELSE

ENDIF
