This project is pretty simple but i am new to all this. I am using an arduino uno, 6 leds and I have 6 hall effect sensors (a3144) monitoring magnets attached to 6 different rotating shafts. I would like the leds to turn on and stay on when the magnet to their respective shaft passes by and turn off when the magnet has not passed by in X amount of time. I would also like a relay to turn on when any of the hall effect sensors have not sensed the magnet in Y amount of time.
This project is for my farm to sense when our different grain augers are on, to turn an led on for each auger when it is turning and if one of them turns off to automatically turn off the auger that picks up grain out of the grain dryer.
The blower is not critical and won't result in a failure of equipment if it turns off.
This is the code i have so far.
