Manual

Example Application

This example prints a message to the Serial interface of the Arduino®

IDE when the sensor is touched and makes the built-in LED light up.

The instructions use the Arduino® platform to illustrate product

use. You can also use an Arduino derivative or another platform

that supports this type of product.

Connection

Module S + -

Arduino® 2 5V GND

Code

// Pin for capactitive touch sensor

int ctsPin 2;

// Pin for the LED

int ledPin = 13;

void setup() {

Serial.begin(9600);

pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT);

pinMode(ctsPin, INPUT);

}

void loop() {

int ctsValue = digitalRead(ctsPin);

if (ctsValue == HIGH){

digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH);

Serial.println("TOUCHED");

}

else{

digitalWrite(ledPin,LOW);

Serial.println("not touched");

}

delay(500);

}
