Blinky

Blinky is the much revered "Hello, World" app for Netduino.

It illustrates a basic program flow in Netduino and how to make the onboard LED blink.

Code

using System;
using Microsoft.SPOT;
using Microsoft.SPOT.Hardware;
using SecretLabs.NETMF.Hardware.Netduino;
using System.Threading;

namespace Blinky
{
public class Program
{
public static void Main()
{
// create an output port (a port that can be written to) and wire it to the onboard LED
OutputPort led = new OutputPort(Pins.ONBOARD_LED, false);

// run forever
while (true)
{
led.Write(true); // turn on the LED
Thread.Sleep(250); // sleep for 250ms
led.Write(false); // turn off the LED
Thread.Sleep(250); // sleep for 250ms
}
}
}
}
