Microbit for LED Blink Project with and without Keyestudio Extension

We already knew that Microbit has 25 (5x5) LEDs display on it. Now, by using Keyestudio Digital white LED Module and Microbit sensor V2 shield, we can control LED to blink, too.
First step is turn off the LEDs on the Microbit.

Materials you need:

Microbit 
Keyestudio Microbit Sensor V2 shield 
USB Cable 
Keyestudio Digital White LED Module 
Female-female jumper wires (3)

Keyestudio Digital White LED Module

This LED Module can be used for light interactive projects. The spec of this module are:

Type: Digital

PH2.54 socket

Size: 30*20mm

Schematic:

How to:

Put Microbit into Keyestudio Microbit Sensor V2 shield. Plug LED module to Microbit Sensor shield. By using jumper wires, connect as follows:

1. Pin S in LED module to pin 9 in Signal in Sensor shield. 

2. Pin + in LED module to Pin V1 in Sensor shield. 

3. Pin - in LED module to Ground in Sensor shield. 

Put Some Codes

Construct codes using Block Code through Microsoft Makecode.

Here I share my code in Makecode:

Test the Code

Now plug the USB cable to Microbit and the result is LED will blink twice with sleep interval 1.5 seconds, and it always repeats.

Other project version without Keyestudio Extension

Without extension, pins that can be used in Microbit are pin 0, 1, and 2. so the different with the code is change the pin number. Previously, we use pin 9. Now, change it to pin 0. The rest of the code is the same with the project above.
