Hi @dan.lappisto22

The Bolt Python library does not have the MultiWrite function. You can instead use the digitalWrite function. It will give you similar output.

Do try this and let us know. If you still face any issue, please feel free to get back to us.

The error AttributeError: ‘Bolt’ object has no attribute ‘analogMultiWrite’ indicates that the Bolt object does not have a method named analogMultiWrite.

Try using ‘digitalWrite’ instead.
