I have created a really basic projects, 2 buttons (using industrial type), metal box (again, industrial). On the 2 buttons, each will move to 3 different locations, each time clicking. This is used for printing labels based on a different system.
The issue that I am having, I am getting phantom clicks. No one will be near the button, but it will move using the sequencing above. After rewriting the project, using a different Teensy board, replacing all wiring, the issue still happens. The latest fix (and so far it seems to be holding up), is that I wrapped the Teensy in a static bag. No issue yet, but the users might not be telling me now.
The only thing I can think of is if there is EMI or static getting in? The location is not exactly static free, and there are several radio devices in the area. Could this be an issue? And would it make sense to ground the Teensy to the box?
If anyone has any ideas, let me know. This is not an every day issue, however it is often enough to frustrate me.
