Hi, Here is how we use the millis library to blink a LED every 1000ms. I hope it helps.
const int ledPin = USERLED; // the number of the LED pin
// Variables will change:
int ledState = LOW; // ledState used to set the LED
long previousMillis = 0; // will store last time LED was updated
// the follow variables is a long because the time, measured in miliseconds,
// will quickly become a bigger number than can be stored in an int.
long interval = 1000; // interval at which to blink (milliseconds)
void setup()
{
// set the digital pin as output:
pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT);
}
void loop()
{
// check to see if it's time to blink the LED; that is, if the
// difference between the current time and last time you blinked
// the LED is bigger than the interval at which you want to
// blink the LED.
unsigned long currentMillis = millis();
if(currentMillis - previousMillis > interval)
{
// save the last time you blinked the LED
previousMillis = currentMillis;
// if the LED is off turn it on and vice-versa:
if (ledState == LOW)
ledState = HIGH;
else
ledState = LOW;
// set the LED with the ledState of the variable:
digitalWrite(ledPin, ledState);
}
}
Hi im new into this world of pinguino and i would appreciate if someone could explain me how exactly the library works i get the milis_init initialize the millis the millis() return the value of millis the interrupt increase the millis by 1 but the update dont get the idea of it,the only thing i need to do is replace the delay(ms) using only the millis library :( could someone explain this to me please T.T?
