detonator

Hi!

i need some help with this:
my detonator script shows time like this: sss (120) and i want it to show it like this: hh:mm:ss
And also i want it to start detonating only after i press button in pin 8
my lcd is 20x4
arduino uno
original script:

/*
  LiquidCrystal Library - display() and noDisplay()
 
 Demonstrates the use a 16x2 LCD display.  The LiquidCrystal
 library works with all LCD displays that are compatible with the 
 Hitachi HD44780 driver. There are many of them out there, and you
 can usually tell them by the 16-pin interface.
 
 This sketch prints "Hello World!" to the LCD and uses the 
 display() and noDisplay() functions to turn on and off
 the display.
 
 The circuit:
 * LCD RS pin to digital pin 12
 * LCD Enable pin to digital pin 11
 * LCD D4 pin to digital pin 5
 * LCD D5 pin to digital pin 4
 * LCD D6 pin to digital pin 3
 * LCD D7 pin to digital pin 2
 * LCD R/W pin to ground
 * 10K resistor:
 * ends to +5V and ground
 * wiper to LCD VO pin (pin 3)

thank you allready

Something like this you mean?

EDIT: I apologise for the video quality :stuck_out_tongue: I have a much better phone these days.

I did a few "fake IED" prop things for airsoft and paintball games, but went over to 7-segment based displays as they're just easier and make for an ever-so-slightly more realistic counter-terrorist sim game. They're so cheap and simple you could stash loads of them all over the site and make it a real challenge to track down and defuse them all within the game time limit!

Have some code - I don't make them like this any more so feel free to do what you want with it (except make an ACTUAL bomb, of course). It's not the best bit of programming in the world but as you can see, it does work.

Oh piss it... hang on, I'll un-private it! :sweat_smile:

can you add schematic???

No, because I don't have one. Sorry! But what pins are used for what function is implied in the program itself, I'm sure you can work it out. My LCD pin usage is identical to yours, and hooking up a few buttons and a sounder (if desired) should be a no-brainer, right? :slight_smile:

Since I started doing my wargaming props differently I stopped maintaining the project and didn't bother going back to LCDs for it - you now have as much material as I do.
