Hi,
In my project with a 08M2 where all other pins are occupied accept the Serial In-pin, I like to use it as a switch input.
I did some reading and found limitations:

So, use PullDown for programming and use DISCONNECT.

And, use a pulldown resistor of 100K for the switch and 22K for the download circuit.
My circuit already contains a pulldown resistor of 10K for the switch and sometimes works when using the download cable.
But with the ERF wireless it fails to download giving errors like "can't find hardware" and some other errors as well.
What is the right combinations of pulldown resistors for the switch and for the download circuit so that programming always succeed?
