cd /home/pi/SunFounder_Super_Kit_V3.0_for_Raspberry_Pi/C

Step 3: Compile

make 10_slideSwitch

Step 4: Run the executable file abov e.

sudo ./10_slideSwitch

Code Explanation

// When the slide is pulled to the left, the middle pin and left one are connected; the Raspberry

Pi reads a high level at the middle pin, so the LED1 is on and LED2 off

if(digitalRead(slidePin) == 1){

digitalWrite(led1, LOW);

digitalWrite(led2, HIGH);

printf("LED1 on\n");

}

// When the slide is pulled to the right, the middle pin and right one are connected; the

Raspberry Pi reads a low, so the LED2 is on and LED1 off

if(digitalRead(slidePin) == 0){

digitalWrite(led2, LOW);

digitalWrite(led1, HIGH);

printf(".....LED2 on\n");

}

For Python users:

Step 2: Get into the folder of the code

cd /home/pi/SunFounder_Super_Kit_V3.0_for_Raspberry_Pi/Python

Step 3: Run

sudo python 10_slideSwitch.py

Code Explanation

When the slide is pulled to the left, the middle pin and left one are connected; the

Raspberry Pi reads a high level at the middle pin, so the LED1 is on and LED2 off.

if GPIO.input(slidePin) == 1:

print 'LED1 ON (High Value)'

GPIO.output(led1Pin, GPIO.LOW)

GPIO.output(led2Pin, GPIO.HIGH)

When the slide is pulled to the right, the middle pin and right one are connected; the

Raspberry Pi reads a low, so the LED2 is on and LED1 off.

if GPIO.input(slidePin) == 0:

print 'LED2 ON (Low Value)'
