About This Project
In this my first project I seek to control a Led RGB to display color combinations. While the Cayenne App requires an additional module (just buy in a few weeks) to control an analog output (PWM), I have tried to use the digital output, so only 7 colors shall be available (the same is something useful). Besides there is no specific Widget for controlling an RGB LED (as if have Blynk), but I hope this project will help to encourage to create.
What’s Connected
A RGB Led connected to a Raspberry Pi 2 connected to Cayenne via WiFi.
Scheduling
- Stack a RGB Led to Protoboard.
- Connect Common Ground (of Led) to Raspberry Ground Pin (#6)
- Connect Other Led Pins to Raspberry Pines BCM 22,23 & 24. (#15,16,18)

Future Updates
Voy a comprar un módulo de extensión compatible con la Cayenne App para poder usar Slides en vez de Switch para tener todo el espectro RGB disponible.
I will buy an extension module compatible with the Cayenne App Slides to use instead of Switch to have the entire RGB spectrum available.
