redtop's Ferduino controller

- Start date
you needed a bigger screen to fit all those LED colors inthat's awesome
Yes and if you notice the frag side, I had it working using another mega to run my frag tank and show the bars on this screen it works. Sometimes the frag lights would go out for a second and come back on. So I have to work on that to get it to work. Once I do that I will add more stuff to the screen.

so you have 2 megas sharing 1 screen ?
how ? LOL
is it in the code you sent me or the code for the other mega, or both?
dude, you've been doing a lot of messing around in there LOL
If you look at the code, between the setup and the loop you will see that I have the code I sent you as the master and I have code for the second mega as the slave
I trying to understand how to use all the channels that I need in a array. Once I understand I will only need just one mega to do all 11 channels. I tried to delete a lot of the stuff I didn't need. It worked for awhile an than I ran into a few problems when I put it on my tank.

Hi!
You can start adding global variables in Ferduino tab on this stretch:
Also in A_English add text after:
And:
Then go to EEPROM tab and create function as this:
The EEPROM have space free since 826.
Best regards.

Code:
//************************ Variáveis de controle da iluminação ****************************
//************************* LED design ****************************************************
//************************** Variáveis de controle da potência dos leds *******************Also in A_English add text after:
Code:
prog_char nomecanal21 [] PROGMEM = "UV LEDS POWER: 255 = 100%";And:
Code:
nomecanal18, nomecanal19, nomecanal20, nomecanal21Then go to EEPROM tab and create function as this:
Code:
void SaveLEDToEEPROM()
{
byte k = 222;
EEPROM.write(796, k); // Verifica se há valores para os LEDs na EEPROM
for (int i=1; i<97; i++)
{
EEPROM.write(i, wled[i-1]);
EEPROM.write(i+96, bled[i-1]);
EEPROM.write(i+(96*2), rbled[i-1]);
EEPROM.write(i+(96*3), rled[i-1]);
EEPROM.write(i+(96*4), uvled[i-1]);
}
}
Code:
void ReadFromEEPROM()
{
byte k = EEPROM.read(796); // 796 ponteiro para os valores dos leds
if (k == 222)
{
for (int i=1; i<97; i++)
{
wled[i-1] = EEPROM.read(i);
bled[i-1] = EEPROM.read(i+96);
rbled[i-1] = EEPROM.read(i+(96*2));
rled[i-1] = EEPROM.read(i+(96*3));
uvled[i-1] = EEPROM.read(i+(96*4));
}
}
}The EEPROM have space free since 826.
Best regards.

I'll be quizzing you often I'm sure, but having your converted Jarduino, I can at least compare it to the original and figure out what was needed to do to make things bigger and go from there....
some of Fernando's code is in Portuguese but the majority is still English, it's just a little different than the Jarduino, Fernando drew inspiration from several different codes to come up with the Ferduino, so it's writing seems a bit more complex because of that, IMO
messing with translating Fernando's side notes has given me a better understanding of his language and some of it that's written into the code, I've actually learned to read a few words of Portuguese
I've never been much for grabbing up a book to read but I can stare at this PC screen and be reading for hours at a time LOL I think it's because I can interact with most of what I read here, so I can ask questions or add my thoughts on the subject

rott, I bought a new one with the screen but with the new shield, it will not work with my ribbon cable so I'm using the older shield, the shield that came with the screen has an SD card reader on board plus the screen as the SD reader, if I used all that with the Ethernet shield, I'd have 3 LOL
but to answer your question, save yourself a few bucks and use your old shield, the new one is not needed
Frank, I have a text document with some of the instrustions on it, as soon as I find it I'll PM it to you, it's what Fernando instructed me to do for the conversion, but you'll still need to change a few things extra to display the "F" and to correct the chiller/fan temp. settings and LED temp. settings, they will still be in Celsius until you do
or, if you're gonna get a 7 inch screen I can zip the code up and send it....and maybe save you some hassle

nice work if you send me the code thank you very muchgot my new 7 " screen in and now have the Ferduino home page super sized, still have an issue with my LED bar graph and Fernanso is trying to help me figure it out but it looks awesome
little comparison shot of the 3.2 and the 7 side by side
