Remote L Chika with pigpio

What is this?

This is a test program for remotely controlling GPIO of raspberry pi. It was necessary to control GPIO remotely due to various reasons, so I set it in a hurry.

From various settings

start up.

Install the necessary items on the remote PC. In my case, it's Raspberry Pi 3, so I installed pigpio.

LED Chika

This is a test program.

python

import time
import pigpio

PI = pigpio.pi("Remote ip address", 8888)

PI.set_mode(23, pigpio.OUTPUT)
PI.set_mode(24, pigpio.OUTPUT)
PI.set_mode(25, pigpio.OUTPUT)

try:
    while True:
        PI.write(23, 1)
        time.sleep(0.1)
        PI.write(23, 0)
        PI.write(24, 1)
        time.sleep(0.1)
        PI.write(24, 0)
        PI.write(25, 1)
        time.sleep(0.1)
        PI.write(25, 0)
except KeyboardInterrupt:
    pass
PI.set_mode(23, pigpio.INPUT)
PI.set_mode(24, pigpio.INPUT)
PI.set_mode(25, pigpio.INPUT)
PI.stop()

GPIO23,24,25 has 3 LEDs. It doesn't matter if you run it from localhost, but if you run it remotely, it seems to be affected by the line speed, but the movement becomes tedious.

This time, there is no problem because it is the control of the relay for turning on / off the 100V power supply, and it is not necessary to switch at high speed.
