RasPiO® Breakout Python scripts

By Alex Eames http://RasPi.TV

These scripts go with the RasPiO® Breakout board http://rasp.io/breakout

RasPiO® Breakout board

##Preparation

Connect a wire from each port to an LED (long leg, +ve side). Connect the short leg of the LED to a resistor (~330 Ohms is safe) Connect the other end of the resistor to GND.

Do this for each port with a GPIO number (17 altogether). Then you are ready to test the ports. You should have 17 leds connected to GPIO ports and resistors.

##Contents

Run each script by typing sudo python scriptname.py

With these scripts you should be able to...

  • port-test.py - up and down pattern, increasing speed
  • port-test-pwm1.py - brighten and dim the leds in succession
  • port-test-pwm2.py - brighten and dim alternate sides
  • port-test-pwm3.py - brighten and dim alternate groups of leds

##Enjoy

Have fun connecting things to your Raspberry Pi
