Description
A Piezo-Speaker has two connectors and can generate sounds if you apply a frequency. One is + and one is -. If you connect it to the ESP + is connected to the Pin and - to GND. With the speaker in the LMUBox the long Pin is +.

How to control it in MicroPython
Example code shows how you can play a melody with the speaker. If you want to add higher notes see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piano_key_frequencies for the needed frequency. The example code was taken and edited from https://micropython-on-esp8266-workshop.readthedocs.io/en/latest/basics.html#beepers.
There are some issues with restarting PWM outputs - see Known Issues.

21 melody = 'cdefggaaaagaaaagffffeeddddc'
22 rhythm = [8, 8, 8, 8, 4, 4, 8, 8, 8, 8, 4, 8, 8, 8, 8, 4, 8, 8, 8, 8, 4, 4, 8, 8, 8, 8, 4]
