led smd 5730 module

Hi guys,

i am new to arduino and i don't know where to start. my manager give a project of arduino, and i don't know anything.

my Project.

There is a Fascia-Sign-Board of 23 feet wide and 3 feet tall, in which there are 72 vertical lines of non-addressable LED SMDs,

each vertical line has 12 LED SMD 5730 Modules in it.

(For reference, we will provide you few sample LED SMD Modules )

We want to play the following effects on our Fascia Signboard:

Wave effect - Starting from both sides, ends at the center.
Slow Fade-in and Fade-Out Effect
Fade in from both sides towards the center within 3 seconds, and fade out after 3 seconds then repeat.

Please help me, if you can

This is by no means a trivial project and one wonders how the manager got the impression that you are competent to do it !

Maybe now is the time to explain to the manager that you need training?

If you really are a beginner then I suggest you get yourself an Uno and a three or four regular LEDs with suitable resistors and learn how to control them.

The example programs that come with the Arduino IDE contain all of the techniques you will require. You may also wish to have a look at the demo Several Things at a Time which illustrates how to flash a few LEDs

if you have a code then help me otherwise shutup

Hi,
Welcome to the forum.

Please read the first post in any forum entitled how to use this forum.
http://forum.arduino.cc/index.php/topic,148850.0.html .

Is this a school/college/university project?

We are not here to provide you with an instant complete solution, we are here to provide guidance and advice.
This guidance will help you develop your sketch, so that you understand how it works and you can debug any problems that may develop.

Can you post a diagram of how the LEDs are wired up?
What are you going to use for a power supply?

Can you tell us your electronics, programming, arduino, hardware experience?

Sure, I could always do with some LED modules.

What modules are they, and how are they driven? There must be something controlling them if you expect to be able to display patterns on them.

You said you don't know anything so the advice I gave you in Reply #1 seems perfectly appropriate to me (and, I suspect, to other Forum regulars). All of the people offering advice here are unpaid volunteers. Being rude is not a good start to any relationship.

If you just want someone to write a program for you then please ask in the Gigs and Collaborations section of the Forum and be prepared to pay.

i am using SMD 5730 white led modules. and i have arduino uno and pca9685 for driven this led modules. i have no any pattern or diagram which i provide u.

Without any diagram or any other information I don't think anyone is going to be able to help you.
