er from a Grove or RePhone kit.
External battery source 12V connected to Strip Driver.
I tried the same code below on my Arduino UNO with Grove hat and it works fine but not on WIO TERMINAL?? . (I changed the pins to D2,D3 instead of 0, 1 for WIO Terminal, However, I did put the WIO Battery and tried D2, D3)
What am I doing wrong?
#include “RGBdriver.h” #define CLK 0 //2 pins definitions for the driver #define DIO 1 //3
RGBdriver Driver(CLK,DIO);
void setup()
{
Driver.begin(); // begin
}
void loop()
{
Driver.begin(); // begin
Driver.SetColor(255,0,0); //Red. first node data
Driver.end();
delay(1000);
Driver.begin(); // begin
Driver.SetColor(0, 255, 0); //Green. first node data
Driver.end();
delay(1000);
Driver.begin(); // begin
Driver.SetColor(0, 0, 255);//Blue. first node data
Driver.end();
delay(1000);
Driver.begin(); // begin
Driver.SetColor(150, 150, 155);//Blue. first node data
Driver.end();
delay(1000);
I was aware of the pin assignments! As I stated in my report, I did change the pins back to the default (D2, D3) [#define CLK 2 and #define DIO 3] and plugging into the proper slot on the WIO Battery. As I said that did not make any difference. Any other ideas? If you have a successful example for the WIO TERMINAL, I would like to see it . Are there any *.h files I need local to the .ino file. Currently, I have the RGBdriver.h.
As I also stated, I was able to make this sketch work on a regular Arduino UNO with Grove hat.
I believe so. . I thought that the WIO TERMINAL was meant for GROVE sensors and according to the documentation I read I attempted 2 different methods:
WIO Terminal no WIO Battery, I plugged the Strip Driver sensor into the Grove receptacle to the right of the USB-C (with LCD facing up). I then change the #defines to 0 and 1
Orientation of WIO TERMINAL LCD up, USB-C receptacle facing me:
2) WIO TERMINAL with WIO Battery: I plugged the GROVE strip driver into slot #2 on the right hand side of WIO Battery (receptacle closest to the back Right of WIO Battery Terminal.
Then I changed the #defines to 2 and 3 in the sketch.
Neither worked. LED powered by 12v (6 x1.5) - color never changed
When I plugged the Grove Strip driver into the UNO Grove hat it was D2 with defiines set at 2 and 3 which worked
Thank you. That would explain it. I will need to make sure from now on that only 3.3V sensors can be used in the Grove receptacles! For 5V i need to use the GPIO Pins on the back!
