-Once configured, a new option to configure the MCP230xx parameters will appear under the Configuration menu as follows:
+There are two methods of configuration
+
+### Option #1 - Use sensor29 commands via serial, web console or MQTT messages
+
+This option only requires the main define to be uncommented prior to compilation
+
+`#define USE_MCP230xx`
+
+The format for sending configuration messages via serial, web console or MQTT messages are as follows:
+
+sensor29 _pin_,_pinmode_,_pullup_
+
+Where:
+
+**pin** = The digital IO pin on the MCP230xx chip as a numeric e.g. 0 through 7 for MCP23008 and 0 through 15 for the MCP23017
+
+**pinmode** = The operational mode of the pin as follows:
+
+**0** = Disabled
+
+**1** = INPUT (Floating - only telemetry data will be sent according to Tasmota firmware configuration intervals
+
+**2** = INPUT with INTERRUPT on CHANGE (Will send an MQTT output on state change from LOW to HIGH **and** HIGH to LOW)
+
+**3** = INPUT with INTERRUPT on CHANGE to **LOW** (Will send an MQTT output on state change **only** from HIGH to LOW)
+
+**4** = INPUT with INTERRUPT on CHANGE to **HIGH** (Will send an MQTT output on state change **only** from LOW to HIGH)
+
+**pinmode** = The operational mode of the pin as follows:
+
+**0** = Weak internal pull-up **DISABLED**
+
+**1** = Weak internal pull-up **ENABLED**
+
+Examples of this:
+
+`sensor27 4,1,0` - Will enable D4 for INPUT without internal pull-up resistor
+
+`sensor27 3,1,1` - Will enable D3 for INPUT with the internal pull-up resistor ENABLED
+
+`sensor27 5,2,1` - Will enable D5 for INPUT and report on change state from LOW to HIGH and HIGH to LOW via MQTT
+
+`sensor27 6,3,1` - Will enable D6 for INPUT and report on change state from HIGH to LOW (note pull-up is also enabled)
+
+`sensor27 2,4,0` - Will enable D2 for INPUT and report on change state from LOW to HIGH (note pull-up is not enabled)
+
+Pull-up resistor support is valid for all modes from 1 through 4
+
+### Option #2 - Use Tasmota web interface to configure behaviour of MCP230xx pins
+
+For this to work the following additional line needs to be uncommented prior to compilation
+
+`#define USE_MCP230xx_webconfig`
+
+This will add a new option to configure the MCP230xx parameters will appear under the Configuration menu as follows:

 Interrupts will report for individual pins as and when the conditions which were configured are met and will look something like this:
