Can i make my Arduino Nano retain tension?

Hi!

I'm making a project with some friends and we were thinking on using my Arduino Nano to retain tension on the digital inputs that we configure. Is this possible?
I searched on the whole site and didn't found this information.

“retain tension”

More information.

This is a question, not a tutorial. I have suggested to the Moderator to move it to Project Guidance.

Maybe you need INPUT_PULLUP in your pinMode()

I was thinking in the lines of "tie a rope to it and put a sufficient weight on it and you have your tension" but I somehow have the feeling that this is not what is really asked for. I am curious as to what this "tension" should be.

Tension might be voltage if OP is french speaking.

Or old. They used to call HV power lines High Tension Lines.

I'm not native English speaking; so learned something new. Thanks and a karma earned :wink:

Hi,
I am not english native either and, even with this fact in mind, I do not understand neither ...
Taking for granted that "tension" means voltage (it may happen the OP is spanish native too) what do you mean by "retain tension"?

retain tension = record voltage?

Yes; I guess is that. If so, the OP has to explain what he/she really wants to do ...
