BAD Arduino, why is digitalWrite(led3, HIGH) not the same as analogWrite(led3, 255). This fixed the problem.

Pause for loop without delay

Posted: 09 Jan 2013 01:53 AM PST

Hi everybody,
the code below resets a floppy drive.
I want to reset individual drives without slowing down all the other routines going on at the same time.
Any suggestions how I could pause this for loop without the use of a delay?

Not enough information. Posting your code would help.

Il tuo schema mi sembra coerente.

Ho dato un'occhiata al programma (ultima versione di Dicembre) e deve essere modificato per la MEGA.

Per esempio, SDA e SCL devono corrispondere ai pin 20 e 21 e non ad A4 ed A5:

#define i2c_sda_data A4

Button Counter with Reset Timer

Hey guys, im trying to make a button counter with a timer in the background. I have the button counter all set and working, but i cant seem to get the timer figured out.

Basically, once the button is pressed once, it lights up a red LED. The second ti...

let me know what you think!

Code:

byte Display[23][8]

I think you're using eight times as much RAM as you need to.

Nice collection!

Makes me wish for a "vote for" or "submit candidate" feature. I am sure there are lots of cool things being done that deserve more attention and that can act as inspiration to us all.

so theres nothing from keeping the led from sucking current, possiblally (doubtfull though) resetting your IC

Nothing ... apart from the 1K resistors.

I got some cheap 433MHz radios like that. They were ASK radios. RX/TX pair. I found the automatic gain control (AGC) on the RX would respond rather quickly--so if the signal from the TX stayed in one place for long, the AGC would saturate and I'd get a...

The max message size is currently around 64 bytes; isn't that short enough?
A shorted message would require a different protocol; right now the message size matches the flash page size.

Fixed -- for the most part -- the code for the Pulse Sensor (on my computer setup).
Don't know if there is any extraneous dialogue in the coding.
There is still some noise filtering which blinks chaotically.
Enjoy.

sometimes just touching (only) the black probe to Gnd would cause the uC to reset. Not always, just sometimes.

That suggest it is a mechanical problem rather than an electrical one.

Actually it seems that the X-10 protocol might be a good option. They seem to have what I need too.

A schematic diagram would be useful.
A picture of you project would be nice too.
And your code.

...is the sheild im using with an adduino nano and xbees

With that device, and properly configured XBees, it is a direct replacement for a wire. You'd program the Arduinos just as if they had a wire connecting them.
