Things to add to a custom menu

Posted: Mon Feb 20, 2012 8:17 pm
by dpitalo
I'd like to add two items to my menu.

1. Force Cloud
2. Force Thunderstorm

but have no idea where to begin.

I attempted to follow the instructions in the PWM Module User guide with no luck.

My LED's are configured like this

3 Banks of 12 Royal Blues
2 Banks of XP-E Cool Whites
2 Banks of XP-G Cool Whites

If possible, I'd like to do a rolling cloud effect. Maybe having all the blues dim slightly and the whites on one side dim followed by the other side. The other thing that would be neat would be to just have the XP-E's for lightining and everything else just get a little dimmer.

Here's my PDE...

Roberto,

You, sir, are the man!

I'll be uploading everything as soon as I get home this evening.

Thanks!

Working great...it's quite cloudy on my reef today. :-)

Only thing I wish could be faster would be the lightning strikes...more of a strobe effect rather than just a couple of flashes.

That's a limitation of the driver.
I tried it too... Just doesn't discharge and charge again fast enough in my opinion.
But you can play around with this part:

Code: Select all

        for (int b=0;b<6;b++)
        {
          if (bitRead(Daylight_Channels,b)==1)
          {
            if (random(100)<20) lightningstatus=1; 
            else lightningstatus=0;
            if (lightningstatus) PWMChannel[b]=100; 
            else PWMChannel[b]=0;
            //delay(10);
          }
          else
          {
            PWMChannel[b]=20;
          }
        }
This is where the lightning effect happens.
If you change

Code: Select all

            PWMChannel[b]=20;
To

Code: Select all

            PWMChannel[b]=20;
May improve things...
Or you can come up with a different logic that makes it even faster decisions.
Right now, It has to go through each channel and make a decision on whether to turn it on or off.
If the decision was made for all 6 at the same time, you may get faster response from the controller, but I don't think the driver would follow.
But who knows... I'd love to be wrong :)
