3. Magnetcode Coding Guide
1. For any code involving case detection which starts with 'If' must always
end with 'End If'.
Example 1:
1. ButtonA1_Show = On
2. If ButtonA1 = Pressed
3. Vibrate = On
4. End If
5. Goto = 1
Example 2:
1. Read_Controller
2. If C_Ain1 > 50
3. DOUT1 = On
4. End If
5. Goto = 1
2. We can add multiple tasks under a 'If' condition.
Example 1:
1. ButtonB1_Show = On
2. If ButtonB1 = Pressed
3. LCD_Show = On
4. LCD_Back = Red
5. LCD_Front = Green
6. End If
7. Goto = 1
Example 2:
1. Read_Controller
2. If C_Din1 = 1
3. Vibrate = On
4. LCD_Show = On
Page 5 of 92
5. LCD_Back = Red
6. End If
7. Goto = 1
3. For coding with 'If...End If', you need to add 'Goto' at the end of the code
to keep checking for the condition.
Example 1:
3. Vibrate = On
4. End If
5. Goto = 1
Example 2:
1. Read_Controller
2. If C_DIN1 = 1
3. Vibrate = On
4. End If
5. If C_DIN1 = 0
6. Vibrate = Off
7. End If
8. Goto = 1
4. For coding without 'If...End If', you need to add 'Goto' at the end of the
code if you wish to repeat the same task.
Example 1:
1. Vibrate = On
2. Timer = 2 sec
3. Vibrate = Off
4. Timer = 2 sec
5. Goto = 1
Example 2:
1. DOUT1 = On
Page 6 of 92
2. DOUT2 = Off
3. Timer = 1 sec
4. DOUT1 = Off
5. DOUT2 = On
6. Timer = 1 sec
7. Goto = 1
5. We can add multiple 'Goto' in a code.
Example 1:
3. LCD_Show = On
4. Timer = 1 sec
5. LCD_Show = Off
6. Timer = 1 sec
7. Goto = 3
8. End If
9. Goto = 1
Example 2:
1. LCD_Show = On
2. Value1= Value1 + 1
3. LCD_Show_Var = Value1
4. LCD_Update
5. If Value1 < 5
6. LCD_Back = Green
7. Goto =17
8. End If
9. If Value1 < 10
10. LCD_Back = Pink
11. Goto =17
12. End If
13. If Value1 < 15
14. LCD_Back = Blue
15. Goto =17
16. End If
17. Timer = 1 sec
18. Goto = 1
Page 7 of 92
6. We can add multiple 'If...End If' in a code to perform an 'OR' logic.
Example 1:
1. LCD_Show = On
2. If Value1 < 5
3. LCD_Back = Red
4. End If
5. If Value1 > 5
6. LCD_Back = Green
7. End If
8. Goto = 1
Example 2:
1. Read_Controller
2. If C_Ain1 > 100
3. Vibrate = On
4. LCD_Show = On
5. End If
6. If C_Ain1 < 100
7. Vibrate = On
8. LCD_Show = Off
9. End If
10. Goto = 1
7. We can add multiple 'If' in a 'If...End If' to perform an 'AND' logic.
Example 1:
1. Value1 = 12
2. If Value1 < 30
3. If Value1>10
4. LCD_Show = On
5. End If
6. Goto = 1
Page 8 of 92
Example 2:
1. Read_Controller
2. If C_Din1 = 1
3. If C_Din2 = 1
4. If C_Din3 = 1
5. Vibrate = On
6. End If
7. Goto = 1
8. For coding which related with project board parameters e.g. 'C_Din1',
'C_Din2', 'C_Ain1', you need to add 'Read_Controller' command at the top
of the code.
Example 1:
1. Read_Controller
2. If C_Din1 = 1
3. Vibrate = On
4. End If
5. If C_Din1 = 0
6. Vibrate = Off
7. End If
8. Goto = 1
Example 2:
1. Read_Controller
2. If C_Ain1 < 56
3. Vibrate = On
4. End If
5. If C_Ain3 > 56
6. Vibrate = Off
7. End If
8. Goto = 1
Page 9 of 92
9. We can add '~Note' in our coding to add a comment or a reminder.
Example 1:
1. ~This is my first program

2. LCD_Show = On
3. Timer = 1 sec
4. LCD_Show = Off
5. Timer = 1 sec
6. Goto = 1
Example 2:
1. Read_Controller
2. ~When door is open
3. If C_Din1 = 1
4. LCD_Show = On
5. End If
6. ~When door is close
7. If C_Din1 = 0
8. LCD_Show = Off
9. End If
10. Goto = 1

project board is inside a casing.
Digital Output DOUT1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 are digital outputs of the project board.
(DOUT1, DOUT2, When DOUT1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 is turned on, it will provide a 5VDC

DOUT3, DOUT4, output (logic 1) with a maximum of 20mA current to the connected
DOUT5, DOUT6) device.
Page 36 of 92
When DOUT1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 is turned off, it will provide a 0VDC

output (logic 0) with a 0mA current to the connected device.
Digital Input DIN1, DIN2, DIN3 and DIN4 are digital inputs of the project board.
(DIN1, DIN2,DIN3, You can connect it to any digital sensor or switch e.g. push button,
DIN4) float switch, obstacle sensor.
Digital input only accepts 0VDC and 5VDC. Any voltage below
0VDC or above 5VDC will damage the Microcontroller. Any voltage
between 0VDC to 5VDC is invalid.
When any digital input pin detected a 5VDC input. It will output
logic 1 (C_Din=1). When any digital input pin detected a 0VDC
input. It will output logic 0 (C_Din=0).
* Note: All the digital input pins on the Carrot project board
are enhanced with a 10KR pulled down resistor. Therefore,
you can connect switches or buttons to DIN1, DIN2, DIN3 and
DIN4 without additional circuitry.
Analog Input AIN1, AIN2, AIN3, AIN4, AIN5 are the analog inputs of the project
board.
(AIN1, AIN2, AIN3,
AIN4, AIN5) Analog input accepts any voltage from 0VDC to 5VDC. Any
voltage below 0VDC or above 5VDC will burn the Microcontroller.
You can connect it to any analog sensor with an output voltage

from 0VDC to 5VDC. The analog voltage value will be converted to
digital values through a 8 bit analog to digital converter (ADC)
module in the Greenbean Microcontroller.
The ADC value will vary from 0 to 255 when detected voltage
changes from 0VDC to 5VDC.
Pulse Output PULSE1 and PULSE2 are pulse output of the project board. The
voltage of the pulse is 5VDC. Both pulse outputs can vary from a
(Pulse 1, PULSE2)
duty ratio of 0% (no output) to 100% (strongest output).
Page 37 of 92
Servo Motor Output SERVO1, SERVO2 are servo motor outputs of the project board.
Each servo motor output can control a servo motor to rotate from 0
(Servo 1, 2)
to 180 degree (depending on the characteristic of the servo motor).
Connect GND pin to GND (-ve) pin of the servo motor.
Connect POUT2 pin to VCC (+ve) pin of the servo motor.
Connect SIG pin to signal pin of the servo motor.
Bluetooth Module Bluetooth module is used to link the Carrot project board to the
Smartphone or tablet. Each Bluetooth module has an unique ID for
Bluetooth pairing purpose.
