Hello, I’m Jose Luis Tomas from Valencia (Spain). I have problems when I try to turns on, the little light that are included in the set 9797 of Lego, It does not work.
I kwon that when I connect this ligth to an output port in the NXT Brick (for example Port A), the light turns on when we try to power on this ‘motor’.
In the Brickpi I use the python language and I connect for example the light to the Motor or Port C, I use the following code fragment:
…
motor3=PORT_C
BrickPi.MotorEnable[moto3] = 1 #Enable the ‘Light’
BrickPiSetupSensors() #Send the properties of sensors to BrickPi
which part in this picture: http://lego.brickinstructions.com/09000/9797/071.jpg are you calling the lights? I’m really confused by what you’re trying to do. Maybe you can post a qucik picture of how and what you have hooked up to the BrickPi?
The item is the number 4494083, in this item I can connect onw or two small white pieces with a tiny light bulb. I attach two photos in wich I show you what I want to say.
Hi Jitona, I don’t think those will power up from the BrickPi motor ports. I suspect (though I’m not sure) that they’re going to be linked to different pins than the power (which would make sense, they probably can’t handle 10V of power).
