Description

For this example, we are using a momentary push button to reset the LED lights, and the code provided under the examples for Arduino* IDE 1.5.3.

Hardware

  • Intel® Galileo Board
  • Breadboard
  • Momentary push button
  • Wires
  • Three 220 ohm resistors
  • One 10K ohm resistor
  • One green LED
  • Two blue LED

Instructions

  1. Make these Intel Galileo Board connections, then place the three LEDs on the breadboard, connecting all three LEDs to the GND strip.

    GND GND Strip  
    5V 5V strip  
      GND strip Negative leg

  2. Place the 200 ohm resistors on the breadboard, lining up with the negative side of the LED. Make the following connections:
     
    220 ohm resistor Breadboard Intel Galileo Board
    Negative Connect  
    Negative Connect  
    Negative Connect  
    Positive   Pin-out 3
        Pin-out 4
        Pin-out 5

  3. Place the 220 ohm resistor from negative side of LED to the negative strip of the breadboard.
  4. From left to right, connect the other side of the resistors to pin-outs 3–5 on the Intel Galileo board.
  5. Place the momentary push button on the breadboard and make these connections.

    Right-bottom pin   Negative strip Pin-out 2
           
           

  6. Connect the push button from the 5V strip to the left-bottom pin and the 10K resistor from the negative strip to the right-bottom pin.
  7. Connect a wire from the bottom-right leg to pin-out 2 on the Intel Galileo Board.
  8. Connect the power supply to the Intel Galileo Board and the USB to USB Client Port on the board.
  9. Open Arduino* IDE. Under Tools > Board, select Intel Galileo.
  10. Under Tools > Serial Port, choose the Com # where the Intel Galileo Board is connected to.
  11. Under File > Examples > 05.Control, select the switchCase2 example.
  12. Upload to the Intel Galileo Board by clicking the upload button.
