Thanks Hans for ideas. I will send circuit connection, short video on what is working and where I am. We can use Tinkard to simulate the code.

Hi Hans. Help improve on this code so that the led animation runs smoothly, maybe with use of millis. Below is the video of how its running. notice the red and green lighting have to move first before...

Here the videos – it took me some effort. The videos I recorded were 4K, and became to big to post. So I had to downsize them to 1080p.

Hi Hans, I don´t know what to say. Really, I´m speechless! It is exactly what I was looking for and even more. To be able to set various parameters is great (had some funny color issues by tweaking...

Hi Geowai! This sounds a little more complex than I may be able to help you with.The Tinkard link (by the way: thanks for mention this site – I had not heard of them before!) gave me an “410 – The...

Hi Hans, again all I can say is THANK YOU! I really like your structure of Loop and Void. Have the function in a void and call it in the loop, makes the pushbutton function easy.Yesterday I was trying...

Hi Hans! I will take a closer look at your tutorial about programming, cause I like your art of programming and the way you explain things. The “loop” and “setup” is clear. But I very often read...

Thank you for the compliments! Developers that only one “void” should probably learn to work a little cleaner, but that is just my opinion.The Arduino “standard” dictates both “setup()” and “loop()”...

Hi Hans! Thanks for subrscribing on Youtube. You have never heard about the soundmodule? You will like it. It can also be used as a standalone solution. That is what I did before Arduino. You only...
