# Development 1. Complete the operations described in [Getting Started with Hi3861](../quick-start/hi3861-development-board.md). LED control examples are stored in the file **applications/sample/wifi-iot/app/iothardware/led\_example.c**. 2. Refer to the schematic diagram to understand the cable connections. The LED of Hispark Pegasus should be connected to pin 9. ``` #define LED_TEST_GPIO 9 ``` >![](public_sys-resources/icon-note.gif) **NOTE:** >For details about the schematic diagram of the development board, contact the Hi3861 customer service personnel. 3. Initialize the GPIO pin, specify the pin usage, and create a task to turn on or off the LED periodically so that the LED blinks. ``` static void LedExampleEntry(void) { osThreadAttr_t attr; /* Initialize the GPIO pin. */ IoTGpioInit(LED_TEST_GPIO); /* Set pin 9 as the output direction. */ IoTGpioSetDir(LED_TEST_GPIO, IOT_GPIO_DIR_OUT); attr.name = "LedTask"; attr.attr_bits = 0U; attr.cb_mem = NULL; attr.cb_size = 0U; attr.stack_mem = NULL; attr.stack_size = LED_TASK_STACK_SIZE; attr.priority = LED_TASK_PRIO; /* Start the task. */ if (osThreadNew((osThreadFunc_t)LedTask, NULL, &attr) == NULL) { printf("[LedExample] Failed to create LedTask!\n"); } } ``` 4. Use a cyclic task in which the LED periodically turns on and off to implement LED blinking. ``` static void *LedTask(const char *arg) { (void)arg; while (1) { switch (g_ledState) { case LED_ON: IoTGpioSetOutputVal(LED_TEST_GPIO, 1); usleep(LED_INTERVAL_TIME_US); break; case LED_OFF: IoTGpioSetOutputVal(LED_TEST_GPIO, 0); usleep(LED_INTERVAL_TIME_US); break; case LED_SPARK: IoTGpioSetOutputVal(LED_TEST_GPIO, 0); usleep(LED_INTERVAL_TIME_US); IoTGpioSetOutputVal(LED_TEST_GPIO, 1); usleep(LED_INTERVAL_TIME_US); break; default: usleep(LED_INTERVAL_TIME_US); break; } } return NULL; } ``` 5. Call **SYS\_RUN\(\)** of OpenHarmony to start the service. \(**SYS\_RUN** is defined in the **ohos\_init.h** file.\) ``` SYS_RUN(LedExampleEntry); ``` 6. Change the **applications/sample/wifi-iot/app/BUILD.gn** file to enable **led\_example.c** to participate in compilation. ``` import("//build/lite/config/component/lite_component.gni") lite_component("app") { features = [ "iothardware:led_example" ] } ```
