This is a test if the copy for forum-function of the arduino IDE is still working#
//#include
void PrintFileNameDateTime() {
Serial.println("Code running comes from file ");
Serial.println(__FILE__);
Serial.print(" compiled ");
Serial.print(__DATE__);
Serial.print(" ");
Serial.println(__TIME__);
}
boolean TimePeriodIsOver (unsigned long &expireTime, unsigned long TimePeriod) {
unsigned long currentMillis = millis();
if ( currentMillis - expireTime >= TimePeriod )
{
expireTime = currentMillis; // set new expireTime
return true; // more time than TimePeriod) has elapsed since last time if-condition was true
}
else return false; // not expired
}
unsigned long MyTestTimer = 0; // variables MUST be of type unsigned long
const byte OnBoard_LED = 2;
void BlinkHeartBeatLED(int IO_Pin, int BlinkPeriod) {
static unsigned long MyBlinkTimer;
pinMode(IO_Pin, OUTPUT);
if ( TimePeriodIsOver(MyBlinkTimer,BlinkPeriod) ) {
digitalWrite(IO_Pin,!digitalRead(IO_Pin) );
}
}
void setup() {
Serial.begin(115200);
Serial.println("Setup-Start");
PrintFileNameDateTime();
}
void loop() {
BlinkHeartBeatLED(OnBoard_LED,100);
if ( TimePeriodIsOver(MyTestTimer,1000) ) {
}
}paste and let's see it by posting... Yeah ! Works as expected! Very good!
So hinting to this function still makes sense
