How to Program Arduino Mega to Blink LED 4 of 2*2*2 LED Cube (Part 8 of 13)

<<<<  Read Previous Part (Part 7)

          We had seen the circuit for connecting 2*2*2 LED cube to arduino mega in the last blog. Here, we will upload some programs to the arduino board to control LEDs in 2*2*2 LED cube individually.

Program to blink LED 4

          Upload the following program to your arduino board. If uploading is successful, LED 4 will start blinking.

// the setup routine runs once when you press reset:
void setup() {                
  // initialize the digital pin as an output.
  pinMode(8, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(9, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(10, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(11, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(12, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(13, OUTPUT);   
}

// the loop routine runs over and over again forever:
void loop() {

  //Turn on LED 4 for 500 mS
  digitalWrite(8, HIGH);  //Send HIGH to the "f" terminal of LED cube 
  digitalWrite(9, LOW);   //Send LOW to the "e" terminal of LED cube 
  digitalWrite(10, LOW); //Send LOW to the "d" terminal of LED cube 
  digitalWrite(11, HIGH); //Send HIGH to the "c" terminal of LED cube  
  digitalWrite(12, HIGH); //Send HIGH to the "b" terminal of LED cube 
  digitalWrite(13, HIGH); //Send HIGH to the "a" terminal of LED cube 
  
  delay(500);
  
  //Turn off LED 4 for 500 mS
  digitalWrite(8, LOW);   //Send LOW to the "f" terminal of LED cube 
  digitalWrite(9, LOW);   //Send LOW to the "e" terminal of LED cube 
  
  delay(500);
}

Program to blink LED 5

          Upload the following program to your arduino board. If uploading is successful, LED 5 will start blinking.

// the setup routine runs once when you press reset:
void setup() {                
  // initialize the digital pin as an output.
  pinMode(8, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(9, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(10, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(11, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(12, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(13, OUTPUT);   
}

// the loop routine runs over and over again forever:
void loop() {

  //Turn on LED 5 for 500 mS
  digitalWrite(8, LOW);   //Send LOW to the "f" terminal of LED cube 
  digitalWrite(9, HIGH);  //Send HIGH to the "e" terminal of LED cube 
  digitalWrite(10, HIGH); //Send HIGH to the "d" terminal of LED cube 
  digitalWrite(11, HIGH); //Send HIGH to the "c" terminal of LED cube  
  digitalWrite(12, HIGH); //Send HIGH to the "b" terminal of LED cube 
  digitalWrite(13, LOW);  //Send LOW to the "a" terminal of LED cube 
  
  delay(500);
  
  //Turn off LED 5 for 500 mS
  digitalWrite(8, LOW);   //Send LOW to the "f" terminal of LED cube 
  digitalWrite(9, LOW);   //Send LOW to the "e" terminal of LED cube 
  
  delay(500);
}

Program to blink LED 6

          Upload the following program to your arduino board. If uploading is successful, LED 6 will start blinking.

// the setup routine runs once when you press reset:
void setup() {                
  // initialize the digital pin as an output.
  pinMode(8, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(9, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(10, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(11, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(12, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(13, OUTPUT);   
}

// the loop routine runs over and over again forever:
void loop() {

  //Turn on LED 6 for 500 mS
  digitalWrite(8, LOW);  //Send HIGH to the "f" terminal of LED cube 
  digitalWrite(9, HIGH);   //Send LOW to the "e" terminal of LED cube 
  digitalWrite(10, HIGH); //Send HIGH to the "d" terminal of LED cube 
  digitalWrite(11, HIGH);  //Send LOW to the "c" terminal of LED cube  
  digitalWrite(12, LOW); //Send HIGH to the "b" terminal of LED cube 
  digitalWrite(13, HIGH); //Send HIGH to the "a" terminal of LED cube 
  
  delay(500);
  
  //Turn off LED 6 for 500 mS
  digitalWrite(8, LOW);   //Send LOW to the "f" terminal of LED cube 
  digitalWrite(9, LOW);   //Send LOW to the "e" terminal of LED cube 
  
  delay(500);
}
