Lesson Details

Lesson 1: Who's blinking

Introduction As the first lesson of this kit, we will begin with something simple. In this lesson, all you need to do is to connect an LED to one of the digital pins of main board. With the program we provided here, you can easily control the blinking of an LED.

Hardware required

EASY plug controller Board *1
EASY plug cable *1
USB cable *1
EASY plug Piranha LED Module *1

First, let’s take a look at this Piranha LED Module.

This is a special LED module. When you connect it to ARDUINO, after program, it can emit beautiful light. Of course, you can also control it using PWM. It will be like fireflies at night. Isn’t it cool? We can also combine it with other sensors to do various interesting interactive experiments. Below are its specifications:

Module type: digital
Working voltage: 5V
Distance between pins: 2.54mm
Size: 33.7*20mm
Weight: 3g

Connection Diagram

Now, let’s connect this module to the D11 port of the controller board using the EASY plug cable, just as simple as that!

Sample Code Connect the board to your PC using the USB cable; copy below code into Arduino IDE, and click upload to upload it to your board.

int ledPin = 11; // define digital pin 11
void setup()
{
pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT);// define LED pin as output
}
void loop()
{
analogWrite(ledPin,255); //set the LED on, regulate light brightness, ranging from 0-255, 255 is the brightest
delay(1000); // wait for a second
digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW); // set the LED off
delay(1000); // wait for a second
}

Result

The LED will be on for one second, and then off for one second with an interval of one second, just like a shining eye blinking.

Lesson 2: Flowing light

Introduction LED can do many things. I believe you have seen billboards with lights changing to form various patterns. Now, you can make one! This lesson is called Flowing light. We will need 2 more EASY plug cables and 2 more LEDs than the previous lesson.

Hardware required

EASY plug controller Board *1
EASY plug cable *3
USB cable *1
EASY plug Piranha LED Module *3

Connection Diagram Now, connect the LED modules one by one to D9, D10 and D11 ports of the controller board using the EASY plug cables.

Sample Code

Connect the board to your PC using the USB cable; copy below code into Arduino IDE, and click upload to upload it to your board.

int BASE = 9 ;  // the I/O pin for the first LED
int NUM = 3;   //  number of LEDs
void setup()
{
   for (int i = BASE; i < BASE + NUM; i ++) 
   {
     pinMode(i, OUTPUT);   // set I/O pins as output
   }
}

void loop()
{
   for (int i = BASE; i < BASE + NUM; i ++) 
   {
     digitalWrite(i, HIGH);    //set I/O pins as “high”, turn on LEDs one by one
     delay(200);        // wait 0.2S
   }
   for (int i = BASE; i < BASE + NUM; i ++) 
   {
     digitalWrite(i, HIGH);    // set I/O pins as “low”, turn off LEDs one by one
     delay(200);        // wait 0.2S
   }  
}

Result

3 LEDs turn on one by one, and then turn off one by one, just like flowing light.
