I have led-indicator-k50lgra1yp (green-red-yellow-audible-indicator) I want to interface with microcontroller but I decided to test it with 24 V DC supply

I am connecting pin 1 of indicator to positive of 24 V Dc and pin 3 of indicator to negative of 24 power supply

I have attached datasheet, How to test all colors ?

hi 174,
You will need a transistor drive for each LED pin.
The MCU would drive the transistor Bases with say 5V, via a base resistor.
The transistor Collector would pull the LED pins Low.
Which MCU and programming language are you planning to use.?

I am planning to use 8051 and c language

hi,
For a manual check, just connect a LED pin to the 0V of the 24V supply.
Is that what you are asking.?
E
If I am connecting pin 1 of indicator to positive of 24 V Dc and pin 3 of indicator to negative of 24 power supply, only red light become ON

and if I am connecting pin 1 of indicator to positive of 24 V Dc and any pin 4, 2, 5 of indicator to negative of 24 power supply. I don't get any indication
