- Digital Input
2)Serial Monitor
3)Pressing button changes fading animation speed.
/*
Fade with Button
*/
int led = 11; // the PWM pin the LED is attached to
int brightness = 0; // how bright the LED is
int fadeAmount = 1; // how many points to fade the LED by
const int buttonPin = 7; // the number of the pushbutton pin
const int ledPin = 11; // the number of the LED pin
// variables will change:
int buttonState = 0; // variable for reading the pushbutton status
// the setup routine runs once when you press reset:
void setup() {
// declare pin 11 to be an output:
pinMode(led, OUTPUT);
// initialize the LED pin as an output:
pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT);
// initialize the pushbutton pin as an input:
pinMode(buttonPin, INPUT);
}
void loop() {
// read the state of the pushbutton value:
buttonState = digitalRead(buttonPin);
// check if the pushbutton is pressed.
// if it is, the buttonState is HIGH:
if (buttonState == HIGH) {
//if the button is pressed,increased fade amount by 1
fadeAmount = fadeAmount + 5;
}
// set the brightness of pin 11:
analogWrite(led, brightness);
// change the brightness for next time through the loop:
brightness = brightness + fadeAmount;
// reverse the direction of the fading at the ends of the fade:
if (brightness <= 0 || brightness >= 255) {
fadeAmount = -fadeAmount;
}
// wait for 10 milliseconds to see the dimming effect
delay(10);
}
Cool! Would you please post your code from your custom fade controlling experiment?
sure, I just updated it. sorry for that.
