Hi, I have a PiPAD case for the Pi and 7" screen which has a power button on the back.  
It comes with these instructions for making the button work on raspbian:

Can I get some help getting it to work in my balena project?  
I am running a version of [x11-window-manager](https://www.balena.io/blog/running-a-desktop-manager-with-balena/) updated to `balenalib/raspberrypi3-64:bullseye`.  
Thanks.

Hi

According to the instructions you shared, you need to set the correct dtoverlay for your peripheral

You can find out how to do this [here](https://www.balena.io/docs/reference/OS/advanced/#setting-device-tree-overlays-dtoverlay-and-parameters-dtparam)

Note that since you have 2 entries for the dtoverlay, You would need to set the value to

```auto
"gpio-poweroff,gpiopin=18,active_low=0","gpio-shutdown,gpio_pin=17,active_low=1,gpio_pull=up"

```

Hope this helps

Thanks
