Switch Hookup for Standalone Mode
If you are using the sound module in standalone mode (w/o our Hyperblade LED blade
driver), then you have to connect up the switches for on/off, power wires, and the aux
(deflection) input. Below is a picture showing the pinout of the SaberSD header:
The on/off switch is used to ignite and retract the saber. Depending on the switch mode,
the first press turns the saber on, the next press turns it off. For latching mode, the saber
stays on as long as the switch is on.
For the deflection switch (either a pushbutton or latching switch can be used), a
deflection sound is played for as long as the switch is pressed or active. The sound board
will automatically cycle through all deflection sounds, one after another, while the button
is active.
