LinkIt ONE Tutorial - Marquee
Introduction
What We’re Doing
The experiments in the previous sections used only one LED but to show dazzling light effects lets use three LEDs. Make connections as shown in the Fig 4.2 and upload the code given below and observe the changes that happens.
Things you need
- LinkIt One x 1
- Break board x 1
- Resistors 330Ω,1kΩ x 3
- 5mm LED x 3
- Transistor(2N3904) x 3

Connection
Code
Please click on the button below to download the code for the kit:
You can unzip the file to the Examples folder of your Arduino IDE.
To access the demo code open:
File -> Examples -> Starter Kit for LinkIt -> Basic -> L4_Control_LEDs
const int pinLed1 = 2; // pin of led1
const int pinLed2 = 3; // pin of led2
const int pinLed3 = 4; // pin of led3
void setup()
{
pinMode(pinLed1, OUTPUT); // set all pin OUTPUT
pinMode(pinLed2, OUTPUT);
pinMode(pinLed3, OUTPUT);
}
void loop()
{
digitalWrite(pinLed4, LOW); // led4 off
digitalWrite(pinLed1, HIGH); // led1 on
delay(100);
digitalWrite(pinLed1, LOW); // led1 off
digitalWrite(pinLed2, HIGH); // led2 on
delay(100);
digitalWrite(pinLed2, LOW); // led2 off
digitalWrite(pinLed3, HIGH); // led3 on
delay(100);
digitalWrite(pinLed3, LOW); // led3 off
digitalWrite(pinLed4, HIGH); // led4 on
delay(100);
}
Troubleshooting
- Check the polarity of the LED’s.
- Ensure that you have connected the LED’ to the correct port pins.
Making it better
Upload the following code with the same breadboard connection in order to obtain different flashing effects.
To access the demo code open:
File -> Examples -> Starter Kit for LinkIt -> Extend_Lesson –> L4_Control_LEDs_Speed
More ideas
Modify the existing code such that the frequency of LED blinking increases.

Help us make it better
Thank you for choosing Seeed. A couple of months ago we initiated a project to improve our documentation system. What you are looking at now is the first edition of the new documentation system. Comparing to the old one, here is the progresses that we made:
- Replaced the old documentation system with a new one that was developed from Mkdocs, a more widely used and cooler tool to develop documentation system.
- Integrated the documentation system with our official website, now you can go to Bazaar and other section like Forum and Community more conveniently.
- Reviewed and rewrote documents for hundreds of products for the system’s first edition, and will continue migrate documents from old wiki to the new one.
An easy-to-use instruction is as important as the product itself. We are expecting this new system will improve your experience when using Seeed’s products. However since this is the first edition, there are still many things need to improve, if you have any suggestions or findings, you are most welcome to submit the amended version as our contributor or give us suggestions in the survey below, Please don’t forget to leave your email address so that we can reply.
Happy hacking
