Hello All,
I’m trying to control a LED Strobe bar(picture Attached).
As you can see in the picture there’s 4 cables solder to the LED board.
These 4 cables control either the Amber or White side of the LEDs.
I’ve traced the cable points to PIN 5 of the LED drivers IC (BM0550HV).
I wrote this code up to control each color of the strobe.
everything seemed to work but now when I try to control the Amber side, my arduino Uno resets itself.
1 button to turn all amber LEDs on.
1 button to turn all white LEDs on.
1 button to turn all amber LEDs to strobes on.
1 button to turn all white LEDs to strobe on.
1 button to turn on different strobing patterns.
The only issue I’m encountering is that when pressing through the patterns I sometimes have to press the buttom more than once to switch to the next pattern
I’ve added my code and a fritzing design of how I wired the UNO with my breadboard.
const int buttonPin0 = 2; //Solid All Yellow LEDs
const int buttonPin1 = 3; //Solid All White LEDs
const int buttonPin2 = 4; //Strobe All Yellow LEDs
const int buttonPin3 = 5; //Strobe All White LEDs
const int buttonPin4 = 6; //Strobe Patterns
const int ledPin0 = 9; //First set of Yellow LEDs
const int ledPin1 = 10; //First set of White LEDs
const int ledPin2 = 11; //Second set of Yellow LEDs
const int ledPin3 = 12; //Second set of White LEDs

int buttonState1 = 0;

buttonState0 = digitalRead(buttonPin0);

SolidYellow();

SolidWhite();
}
if (buttonState2 == HIGH) { //strobe yellow
FlashYellow();
