PWM Value Checker

Post by egadgetjnr »

Has anyone created or can create a quick program to change the PWM values of the dimming module on the fly to check to see what the flicker point of the LED/controller's are? Just the minimum value before the controller light up the LED's is what I'm chasing.

I was thinking of something that would change every 2 seconds or so maybe?

You can overwrite the channels manually and find the point without a program.

Where x is the id of the channel and y is the value you want. Set to 255 to reset to default.

0 is actinic and 1 is daylight i believe. Higher than that are the ports on the dimming channel

Can this be done with the 16 channel dimming expansion? If so what would "X" be? Could you do 12-bit (up to 4095)?

not sure off hand, but you can look at the libraries and find out.
RA_Wifi.cpp is the file that contains all the wifi commands that are available. it's inside the libraries folder.
