//LAB 1 - EXERCISE 2

//PROGRAM OBJECTIVE
//Change the program to blink on and off every 3 seconds


//GLOBAL VARIABLES

// Set up global variable for pin so that any configuration changes can easily and quickly be applied throughout the code 
int led = D2;



//PROGRAM

//Setup function configures the initial state of the microcontroller
//In this case, the microcontroller will be set to off when the program first runs. 
void setup() {
    pinMode(led, OUTPUT);
    
    //This code sets the starting LED status to off
    digitalWrite(led, LOW);
    
    //This code makes the functiona accessible via the cloud
    Particle.function("ledControl", ledControl); 
}

//Loop function repeats the actions in it repeatedly until the microcontroller is turned off (removed from power)
void loop() {

}

    //converts string to integer number
    int value = command.toInt();
