Hello Everybody,
i am writing my BA thesis in Electrical eng. and i have to control a PWM Fan with arduino using matlab.
First i connected external 12V to the fan and it rotates at it's max.
second i connected the PWM's fan to my arduino PWM pin (5)
i opened GUI in Matlab and added two Pusch buttons for one ON and the other for OFF
i used the code writeDigitalPin(a,'D5',0) and write PWMVoltage(a,'D5',0) but both didn't work..
do you have any idea how to control the fan using PWM? to let it rotate and stop and change the speed?
thank in advance
function varargout = yarabb(varargin)
% YARABB MATLAB code for yarabb.fig
% YARABB, by itself, creates a new YARABB or raises the existing
% singleton*.
%
% H = YARABB returns the handle to a new YARABB or the handle to
% the existing singleton*.
%
% YARABB('CALLBACK',hObject,eventData,handles,...) calls the local
% function named CALLBACK in YARABB.M with the given input arguments.
%
% YARABB('Property','Value',...) creates a new YARABB or raises the
% existing singleton*. Starting from the left, property value pairs are
% applied to the GUI before yarabb_OpeningFcn gets called. An
% unrecognized property name or invalid value makes property application
% stop. All inputs are passed to yarabb_OpeningFcn via varargin.
%
% *See GUI Options on GUIDE's Tools menu. Choose "GUI allows only one
% instance to run (singleton)".
