The Cat Defense Device

Purpose

Make a simple device to get your cat away from it.

Step 1

Click “Advanced” to see more choices in the MakeCode drawer.

We need to add a package for programming. Click “Extensions” in the bottom of the drawer and search with “PlanetX” in the dialogue box to download it.

Note: If you met a tip indicating that the codebase will be deleted due to incompatibility, you may continue as the tips say or build a new project in the menu.

Step 2

Code as below

Initialize the rainbow LED to connect the Nonpixel at pin J1 in the on start brick.

While the PIR sensor detects the movement, set to play the music “nyan”, and set the rainbow led to flash in blue and red for 5 times on and on, at last it stops playing the music and the led lights off.
