turning off/on the bright light when needed #173

Closed paris007 closed 1 year ago

paris007 commented 1 year ago

I am trying to activate the data accusation in my device through a command. Hence, I was wondering how I turn the bright green light on and off on demand? is there a software-based solution to this or schematic manipulation is required?

thanks!

@paris007 The PulseSensor draws only about 3 to 4 milliamps, so you can drive it directly from any GPIO on pretty much any hardware platform.

Also, there are a couple of methods for controlling the activity of the PulseSensor Playground Library. pause() and resume(). Check out the Resources file in this repo for all the methods available in the library.
