ARDUINO LED FADE SEQUENCE INSTALL
ARDUINO LED FADE SEQUENCE SERIAL

Note that each time you press the button, you switch to the next color. set the last button time to the current button time

ARDUINO LED FADE SEQUENCE SERIAL

Serial.println(x, DEC) //print x to serial monitor

If (button_time - last_button_time > 250) check to see if increment() was called in the last 250 milliseconds Interrupt service routine for interrupt 0 When analogWrite is used with the RGB LED, you can create millions of colors! analogWrite lets you smoothly change the brightness from 0 (off) to 255 (fully on). Unlike digitalWrite, which can be only HIGH (on) or LOW (off), then fade out and at same time led 2 start fade inand do the same for all leds with this sequence Led 1, 2,3,and Led 2 again then loop all of themThank. In this code we'll step through seven rainbow colors (primary, secondary, tertiary). Serial.begin(9600) //turn on serial communication variables to keep track of the timing of recent interrupts Int colorSwitch = 0 //compare to current_FadeVal to know whether or not to switch colors yet Int ledMode = 0 //color mode to control LEDs Int x = 0 // variable to be updated by the interrupt Using an interrupt to switch quickly between colors Cycling through a series of colors using the built-in LED on the LilyPad USBPlus.

Heads up! Make sure that you install the LilyPad board definition when using the LilyPad USB Plus. You will also need a few alligator clip to pigtail wires to connect to the LilyPad sew tabs. You'll need the buttons, jumpers, and power supply from the previous experiment. If you'd like to follow along, grab a LilyPad USB Plus. This allows us to get the offending costume in sync faster and the show can go on. When the button is pressed, the interrupt is triggered and we move on to the next color. Rather than having to wait for the cycle to end and trying to reset the board in sync with the other boards, we can add an interrupt to pin 10 (this is interrupt 0 on the LilyPad USB Plus board). What happens if one of these costumes gets out of sync? The fade cycle time for each color is 10 seconds and we have a number of these boards sewn into costumes on stage. Let's look at another simple example with LEDs - let's say that we are going to use the built-in RGB LED on a LilyPad USB Plus to cycle through a sequence of colors, fading each color on and off. Interrupts can also come in handy when dealing with long sequences of things. Share on Twitter Share on Facebook Pin It Example: Interrupting an LED Sequence
