If a magnet is placed close to the reed switch module, the red LED lights up; take away the magnet and the green LED lights up again. **Code** .. code-block:: js const Gpio = require('pigpio').Gpio; const led1 = new Gpio(22, {mode: Gpio.OUTPUT}); const led2 = new Gpio(27, {mode: Gpio.OUTPUT}); const reedSwitch = new Gpio(17, { mode: Gpio.INPUT, pullUpDown: Gpio.PUD_DOWN, edge: Gpio.EITHER_EDGE }); reedSwitch.on('interrupt', (level) => { led1.digitalWrite(level); led2.digitalWrite(!level); }); **Code Explanation** .. code-block:: js const Gpio = require('pigpio').Gpio; const reedSwitch = new Gpio(17, { mode: Gpio.INPUT, pullUpDown: Gpio.PUD_DOWN, edge: Gpio.EITHER_EDGE }); Import the pigpio module, create a ReedPin object to control the IO port, set it to input mode, pull down (initially low level), and set an interrupt. .. code-block:: js const led1 = new Gpio(22, {mode: Gpio.OUTPUT}); const led2 = new Gpio(27, {mode: Gpio.OUTPUT}); Create two objects led1, led2 to control the IO ports Gpio22 and Gpio27, and set them to output mode. .. code-block:: js reedSwitch.on('interrupt', (level) => { led1.digitalWrite(level); led2.digitalWrite(!level); }); When the interrupt is triggered, write the same level to led1, and write the opposite level to led2.
