|
|
======================
|
|
A <a href="http://nodered.org" target="_new">Node-RED</a> node to control a <a href="http://pibrealla.com/" target="_new">Pibrella</a> add-on board for a Raspberry-Pi.
|
|
|
|
Install
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
Run the following command in the root directory of your Node-RED install
|
|
|
|
npm install node-red-node-pibrella
|
|
|
|
|
|
Pre-reqs
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
Requires the WiringPi gpio command to be installed in order to work. See the <a href="http://wiringpi.com" target="new">WiringPi site</a> for details on how to do this.

Usage
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
A pair of input and output Node-RED nodes for the Raspberry Pi Pibrella from Pimoroni.
|
|
|
|
###Output
|
|
|
|
The output node will set the selected output high (on) or low (off) depending on the value passed in. Expects a <b>msg.payload</b> with either a 0 or 1 (or true or false).
|
|
|
|
The Buzzer is a divider so low numbers are high notes. 0 is off, and the sensible lowest note is around 250-300. 2 is the highest note. 1 is just a buzz - so you can use 0/1 type inputs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
###Input
|
|
|
|
The input node generates a <b>msg.payload</b> with either a 0 or 1 depending on the state of the input pin.
|
|
|
|
The <b>msg.topic</b> is set to <i>pibrella/{the pin id}</i> - which will be A, B, C, D or R.
|
|
|
|
<b>Note:</b> This node currently polls the pin every 250mS. This is not ideal as it loads the cpu.
