PWMParabola

[DrewPalmer04]

Is it possible to use the PWMParabola or PWMSlope for pinMode(lowATOPin,OUTPUT); ? This would be for use for the idea of controlling a meanwell P series driver from 0-5v from the lowATOPin.

Yes, you can do this:

Code: Select all

analogWrite(lowATOPin,2.55*PWMSlope(7,0,19,0,0,100,60,0));

PWMSlope or PWMParabola returns a value between 0 and 100%.
So, you just need to multiply by 2.55 before passing on to the analogWrite function.

Any way to display the % for the output for this on a custom main?

Yeah, you can just draw the same thing:

Code: Select all

ReefAngel.LCD.Drawtext(0,255,10,10,PWMSlope(7,0,19,0,0,100,60,0));
