Hey guys, basically i am trying to make a working Fallout based terminal using the Arduino.
i have set up TVout to display some basic text, but other than that it just "comes on".
is there any way to delay each character for a few milliseconds as it appears to give the effect of the text typing out?
i know it is doable with liquid crystal displays, but is it doable with CRTs?
the code i am using is rather basic as i am not very skilled in C++ (this is my first project)
eventually i plan on making a full security system with keypad lock (or keyboard) and audio output (which will be individual sound circuits triggered by a digital pin going high)
attached is a picture of what i have so far achieved (the keypad lock is already built using an arduino mega)
this is the code i am using:
#include <TVout.h>
#include <fontALL.h>
TVout TV;
int led = 13;
void setup() {
//TV.begin(PAL,120,96);
TV.begin(NTSC, 143, 102);
TV.select_font(font4x6);
pinMode(led, OUTPUT);
TV.println("Welcome to ROBCO Industries (TM)\nTermlink\n\n" );
TV.println(" [> Security Door Control ]\n\n\n\n\n\n" );
TV.draw_rect(0, 29, 108, 10, WHITE);
TV.println(" >Password Accepted_");
delay(1);
}
void loop ()
{}
(note i did change the font size)
