The step wise processor to control 8 LEDs using Arduino. This is a simple tutorial to control 8 LEDs using Arduino. This tutorial is very simple but more interesting. In this tutorial you set up LEDs to your breadboard.
•LEDs (3 red, 3 green and 2 blue)
Step 2: Put the LEDs and wires
In this step first of all you will need some parts which is mentioned in 2nd step after take the parts and LEDs you have to place the LEDs on the breadboard and you have reserved the positive wire on the right side . After the wiring you will need to upload the code. The code is given below in 3rd step please upload this code and complete your project.
Step 3: Upload the code
//LED Pin Variables
int ledPins[] = {2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}; //An array to hold the pin each LED is connected to
//i.e. LED #0 is connected to pin 2, LED #1, 3 and so on
//to address an array use ledPins[0] this would equal 2
//and ledPins[7] would equal 9
/*
* setup() - this function runs once when you turn your Arduino on
* We the three control pins to outputs
*/
void setup()
{
//Set each pin connected to an LED to output mode (pulling high (on) or low (off)
for(int i = 0; i < 8; i++){ //this is a loop and will repeat eight times
pinMode(ledPins[i],OUTPUT); //we use this to set each LED pin to output
} //the code this replaces is below
/*
* loop() - this function will start after setup finishes and then repeat
* we call a function called oneAfterAnother(). if you would like a different behaviour
* uncomment (delete the two slashes) one of the other lines
*/
void loop() // run over and over again
{
oneAfterAnotherNoLoop(); //this will turn on each LED one by one then turn each off
}
