Step 2: Check that the spi modules are loaded and active.

ls /dev/sp*

Then the following codes will appear (the number may be different).

/dev/spidev0.0  /dev/spidev0.1

Step 3: Install Python module SPI-Py.

git clone https://github.com/lthiery/SPI-Py.git
cd SPI-Py
sudo python3 setup.py install

Note

This step is for python users, if you use C language, please skip.
