Program Execution
Python
- Install the gpiozero library
- You can use the following command to install the library:
sudo apt update sudo apt install python3-gpiozero
- For other systems on the Raspberry Pi, you can use the following command to install the library:
sudo pip3 install gpiozero
- Run the following command to view the GPIO pin definitions on the Raspberry Pi:
pinout
- Set the DIP switch on the ULN2003 driver module to the ON position
- Download the Raspberry Pi reference example, unzip the file, copy it to the user directory, and run it:
cd raspberrypi/35/python_gpiozero python motor.py
- You can now see the Raspberry Pi running the program correctly. To exit, press ctrl+C.
- Command description: LEDBoard(pin, pwm, active_high, initial_value)
- Main parameters:
- pin: GPIO pin number,
- pwm:
- If True, constructs a PWMLED instance for each pin.
- If False (default), constructs a regular LED instance.
- active_high: Internal pull-up/pull-down resistor setting,
- When set to True (default), on() sets the pin to HIGH and off() sets the pin to LOW.
- When set to False, on() sets the pin to LOW and off() sets the pin to HIGH.
- initial_value:
- If False (default), all LEDs are initially off.
- If None, all LEDs are in an unstable initial state.
- If True, all LEDs are initially on.
- Main parameters:
- For more commands, please refer to the gpiozero documentation
