2.2.4 Reed Switch Module
========================
Introduction
-------------------
In this project, we will learn about the reed switch, which is an electrical switch that operates by means of an applied magnetic field.

Experimental Procedures
-------------------------------
**Step 1:** Build the circuit.
.. image:: ../img/2.2.4fritzing.png
:width: 700
:align: center
**Step 2:** Go to the folder of the code.
.. raw:: html
.. code-block::
cd ~/raphael-kit/nodejs/
**Step 3:** Run the code.
.. raw:: html
.. code-block::
sudo node reed_switch_module.js
The green LED will light up when the code is run. 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.
