I purchased a Mini Buzzer at Radio Shack P/N 2730793. When attached to the 5VDC and ground on the expansion port it is loud so this should fix every ones needs But I do not know how to select the pinout. I am attempting to modify code from the Arduino learning area. I know that I will have to change things but their code assigns and “int speakerPin = 9;”. Sparki has 2 5VDC ports, but does it have a programmable pin? I have looked at the diagram of the expansion port and at the Arduinos pin outs I do not get it. Sorry I don’t know what I am doing here need help.
Code from Arduino instruction area
[code]int speakerPin = 9;
int length = 15; // the number of notes
char notes[] = "ccggaagffeeddc "; // a space represents a rest
int beats[] = { 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 4 };
int tempo = 300;
void playTone(int tone, int duration) {
for (long i = 0; i < duration * 1000L; i += tone * 2) {
digitalWrite(speakerPin, HIGH);
delayMicroseconds(tone);
digitalWrite(speakerPin, LOW);
delayMicroseconds(tone);
}
}
void playNote(char note, int duration) {
char names[] = { ‘c’, ‘d’, ‘e’, ‘f’, ‘g’, ‘a’, ‘b’, ‘C’ };
int tones[] = { 1915, 1700, 1519, 1432, 1275, 1136, 1014, 956 };
// play the tone corresponding to the note name
for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++) {
if (names[i] == note) {
playTone(tones[i], duration);
}
}
}
void setup() {
pinMode(speakerPin, OUTPUT);
}
void loop() {
for (int i = 0; i < length; i++) {
if (notes[i] == ’ ') {
delay(beats[i] * tempo); // rest
} else {
playNote(notes[i], beats[i] * tempo);
}
// pause between notes
delay(tempo / 2);
}
}
