Hey everyone,
I haven't been on here in a long time, and I haven't messed with my controller in a long time. I decided I wanted to change up some code, but my program files are all on a hard drive that crashed. is there any way to download the currently running program from the controller?
Thanks

Use the wizard and we'll help you fill in the blanks. Start a thread for your INO and you can keep your full code there as a backup.

Thanks,
I think I found a backup file on another computer. I just wish I could make sure its the right one, because everything is working great, I just want to change from pwmparabola to pwmslope.
Is there an easy way to add a line of text to one of the default controller screens where I could basically type a revision number or description into the code that would show on the controller? for instance, can I make it so I could add the file name to the main screen or something, so that I have that to reference the file on the computer?

Sure, try this:
Code: Select all
ReefAngel.LCD.DrawText(COLOR_BLACK, COLOR_WHITE, 10, 110, "filename");
You can change the coordinates to a spot where it doesn't overlap with other stuff you have in the screen.

y:110
