Controlling LEDs on and off time with serial monitor

Other Hardware LEDs and Multiplexing

Hi all,

I was just needing some help with controlling several LEDs on and off times through serial monitor. I will provide the code I am currently using just to turn them on and off through the monitor. Any help would be appreciated and it should be a pretty quick solution.

void setup()

{

pinMode(13, OUTPUT);

Serial.begin(9600);

while (!Serial);

Serial.println("Input 1 to Turn LED on and 2 to off");

}

void loop() {

if (Serial.available())

{

int state = Serial.parseInt();

if (state == 1)

{

digitalWrite(13, HIGH);

Serial.println("Command completed LED turned ON");

}

if (state == 2)

{

digitalWrite(13, LOW);

Serial.println("Command completed LED turned OFF");

}

}

}
