An LED Bar Graph is packaged array of LEDs commonly used to indicate level or progress and commonly include 8 or 10 leds.
The LedBarGraph class allows you to control an led bar graph using GPIO.
Use the SetLed
method to turn on or off LEDs individually, or assign a value on the Percentage
property to represent it visually on the graph bar, like a battery indicator, temperature, humidity, etc.

An LED Bar Graph is packaged array of LEDs commonly used to indicate level or progress and commonly include 8 or 10 leds.
The LedBarGraph class allows you to control an led bar graph using GPIO.
Use the SetLed
