Programming
Required Program Blocks
Programming Thought
If it has detected that the switch was pressed, the buzzer will emit "dingdong" sound.
Programming
1. Wait for the crash to be pressed.
2. The buzzer emits "Ding".
Set the frequency of "buzzer on-frequency" program block to 1300; delay 500ms.
3. The buzzer emits "ding".
Set the frequency of "buzzer on-frequency" program block to 1000; delay 500ms.
4. Turn the buzzer off, and it will stop emitting sound.
5. Link the program blocks together, and upload the programs.
Test the result
After upload the program, press the switch, and you can hear the "dingdong" sound produced by the buzzer. At this time, you door bell is completed.
Q: To prevent someone pressing the bell, how can we modify the program to make the bell won't ring again during several seconds after ringing once?
A: You can extend the delay time of the buzzer off, and during this time the bell won't ring.
Add a "delay"
In the last line of the program, add a "delay" program block at the back of "buzzer off", and set the time to 3000ms.
Test the result
After upload the program, press the switch, and you can hear the "dingdong" sound produced by the buzzer. Each time you press the door bell, only after 3s can you press again.
