I already have the LEDs set up on a breadboard just send a link to the to download your sketches
I am so tired I cant even see straight
It looks like I am going have manually enter all of this. I tried copy and paste but for some reason its not working.
When you put your cursor on the top right corner of the posted code window do you see two dark pieces of paper and a diagonal arrow?
If you click on the two dark pieces of paper, the code will be copied so that you can paste it into a new blank sketch window of the ide.
Ok, strode and nav LEDs are working but phasers and photon torpedoes do not. I have checked all of my connections and everything looks right. I using red LEDs for phasers tied to ground using a 100 OHM resistor and the other pin is tied to pin 7. The photon torpedoes are white LEDs and tied to ground using another 100 OHM resistor and the other pin is tied to pins 5 & 6. The phaser button is on pin 4 and photon torpedoes are on pin 2.
Excuse me, the strobe LEDs are tied directly to ground with no resistor.
Can videos be posted here?
Pin 13 has a built in resistor on it already.
Ok, the push buttons are connected per your sketch. The pushbutton with the blue jumper wire is tied to pin 8 and all have 10K resistors. The large white LED is the warp/impulse engine LED with the yellow jumper tied to pin 11 and blue tied to pin 10. The yellow jumper is actually tied to a red LED and blue to a blue LED. The orange LED is the phasers and the red LEDs are photon torpedoes but all wired correctly.
Let me double check, I thought that was the one I was running and as for schematic setup mine is the same except for resistor choice.
Thats the one I am running.
Ok, so I recopied the sketch as a new sketch. everything except the torpedo on pin 5 is now working.
So I tried switching pins 5 & 6 around and all that did was swap the reacting torpedoes--in short , before switching pins around the left fired and right did not- after, the right fired and left did not.
Ok, yes that is what happened. But in the original sketch pin 5 fired and then pin 6 without having to hold the button down. It was automatic once you pushed the button.
Oh, I almost forgot, now the strobe and nav lights are working correctly without interruption or change in flash rate.
I have to go to bed soon but need to get in the hot tub for a while first. So on that note I am going to call it a night as I have to get up for work at 4am. I will take a couple videos and post so you can see the before and after changes.
Taking a break tonight, my allergies are really bad and affecting my eyes. But I do have a question, can the push buttons be changed to pin to pin direct commands?
Ok, I am work on break. I was thinking if it is possible to take a jumper say from au used pin like AO-5 make it a digital output and connect to let's say pin 8 using a 10K pull-down resistor to control the impulse/Warp effect.
