Lesson 8 Additional Nodes - levizzzle/CS490 GitHub Wiki
Lesson 8: Involves working with other nodes inside of Node Red and getting a feeling for the different variations of communication and manipulation of data. For this lesson we worked with the Change Node, Switch Node, Report By Exception Node, and the Range Node. I used a combination of other nodes to facilitate completion of this project such as the delay and trigger nodes as well.
Components used:
- Arduino Uno R3
- Breadboard
- 5mm Green/Yellow/Red LEDs
- Node Red

Things Learned
Lesson 8 gave me additional experience in working with other nodes. I learned how to utilize the change node to adjust values that are being sent. I learned how to use the switch node to create a case-like flow. I learned how to use the Report By Exception node to create deadbands. I also learned how to use the range node in order to scale values.
