gl55

A wrapper module for reading analog values from GL55 series photoresistor sensor.

Functions

gl55.get_reading(data_pin, vcc_pin=None)

Get the input voltage of data_pin in millivolt (mV). If vcc_pin is defined it will first power on sensors and it will power off sensors at the end.

from sensors import gl55
volt_analog = gl55.get_reading('P18')
  • params
    • data_pin: the analog input pin name where the sensor is connected to.
    • vcc_pin: (optional) the pin that controls the power to the sensors.
  • returns
    • integer: the analog measurement in millivolt (mV).
