#120835 - GREAT!! It's working
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Ok... THANK YOU BRUCE.

Now it's working.... YUUUPIII!!!! And like with my other three posts, I'll give the solution... Something, not everybody is making... but....

I tested the MOC as you proposed. I put 5V to pin 1 and GND to pin 0. SPONCH !!! The lamp turns on... Well, first I toasted a MOC3011 beause I didn't use the 480 ohms protection.... :-(

Then I changed the schematic.

What I did was to put 480ohms resistor instead the 300ohms. Also I connected it to Vcc and not to the uC pin.

I did that because I thought my uC wasn't giving enough power, this way, the uC sends GND instead of Vcc...

With that change, now the lamp turns on and off depending on my software.

Once again, Thank you Bruce.

Best Regards,

Rodrigo.
