Relaxing Natural Bug bot Steps:

• Testing and documenting should be done at each step
• Activate GPIO on chip
• Understand commands for GPIO
• Understand electrical current
• Build breadboard circuit (Done)
• Turn on lights
• Make script for fading lights (1 for on, one for off)
• Make script to run at certain times
• Build physucal structure for setup
• Create system for alarm variables (web interface)
• Create App to set alarms and other variables
• Refine app for visual appeal
• Create system for adding wifi to chip (maybe bluetooth?)
• Possible flash chip for lighter config

Different boards have different GPIO pinouts. Make sure you understand this when changing boards. For chip there are baically 2 different versions based on the linux kernal. You can find this by going to /sys/class/gpio:

• file gpio408 means version 4.3
• file gpio1016 means version 4.4

In the future you may need to include code to compenstate for the different versions. See the chip GPIO page for more details
In our case, we are in kernal 4.3 so have gpiochip408. So you you add to 408 to corresponding P numbers

• For XIO-P0 to XIO-P7
• ex: XIO-P7 is gpio415

This is VERY important because you would use the string 'gpio415' for your code

Below examples follow the same pin number in the example, gpio415.

• $cat /sys/class/gpio/gpio415/direction

A status has to be assigned to a pin for it to have this view, see below about setting pins

• $sh -c 'echo 415 > /sys/class/gpio/export'
• This line says to use the file export in that directory, and assgn it to the 415 pin, or XIO-P7. -c has to do with reading the command. Note: export is a high level file you can not read normally

• $cat /sys/class/gpio/gpio415/value

You will notice that some of these commands do not necisarily have files associated with them. That is ok.

• sudo sh -c 'echo out > /sys/class/gpio/gpio415/direction

You can assign a value to the
