Usage

Assuming you have already gone through the WipperSnapper Setup page and connected your board to WipperSnapper, navigate to the WipperSnapper board list.

On this page, select the WipperSnapper board you just connected.

  • If you do not see your board listed - go back to the WipperSnapper Setup Page and make sure it registers with Adafrut.io

On the device page, quickly check that your device is online and is running the latest version of the WipperSnapper firmware.

The device tile on the left indicates the version number of the firmware running on the connected board.

Click the New Component button or the + button to bring up the component picker.

Under PWM Components, select the Piezo Buzzer.

Next, Select Pin D14 as the Piezo Buzzer Pin.

WipperSnapper matches musical notes to frequencies, in Hertz. Select the musical note you'd like the Piezo to play when it's activated.

Click Create Component

The device page displays a new piezo buzzer component.

Clicking the switch will cause the Piezo buzzer to play the note you selected within the component setup - piezo buzzer component. Setting the switch to the "off" position will stop the Piezo buzzer.

Modifying the Piezo Buzzer's Note

Is your buzzer's tone too high-pitched or too quiet? To modify the note played by the buzzer, click the cog on the top-right of the Wippersnapper piezo component and select a new tone from the dropdown labeled Note.
