Upgraded Clock program in English

[Folker Stange]

Hi Jon, thx for your posting. I have informed our technician. Please have a moment…

[ER-Tronik]

There is a new IO.sys command for a smooth time correction. Please look at the actual Led-Nixie version from Vanessa how to use this command.

[Jon]

ER-Tronik,

Is there a reason why the calibration is set with the io.sys every cycle in Vanessa’s code? Do we need to set the calibration before reading from the RTC? Can we just set it once (powerup and when the calibration value changes)?

Hi Jon
this was only from older program versions. We now changed this in Version 2.02.
You can find this in the download area of LED-Genial.
Thank you for reminding us.

Regards
Vanessa

Hi Jon,

thx Vanessa 🙂

Hi Folker
thx for posting our program 🙂

Liebe Vanessa, das ist mir doch ein wirkliches Vergnügen !

[Jon]

Ok, that makes more sense now!

Vanessa nice work… I’m sure I made a mess! 😀

I’ll take a look and try to add the flicker back in and not disrupt the rest (if that’s ok).

Hi Vanessa. I installed the 2.02 you uploaded to the LED Basic site, however the fade function no longer works. I set the fade on the unit itself under system option 7 as well as tried using the un-commented EEPROM setting from the basic file. Neither settings show a fade effect.
When I reinstalled Jon’s 2.02 the fade works fine. Just FYI.

[Vanessa]

Hi Chris,
did you reset the clock after installing Vanessa2.02 at systemstart ?
See Manual.
We have testet this software on our LED-Nixie and this will work fine. :-).
maybe it was a little to dark outside. It depents on the brigtness. Try setting the brightness to 12 or 15.
Regards
Vanessa

Hello Chris again…
if second flip mode is enabled, fade won´t work. See manual.

have a nice day

Hallo Ihr Lieben!

I built the LED-Nixie yesterday and I am stunned by its look in reality (much better than on pictures or videos) and all the possibilities I have with LED Basic.

I am a little distracted by the display of seconds, so I would like to display the day and time at once.
I managed getting the day to the first digits by changing code to

s = IO.getrtc(3)
    n = s / 10
    p = 0
    gosub 1000      
    n = s % 10
    p = 10
    gosub 1000   
    goto 520

and hours and minutes to the last digits by simply changing the p = number.

Now I would like to display the date digits in a different color. I guess I have to change something in the color mode section, but I do’t know how. It would be alright if controller chose the next color code from the data line for the first two digits (like date digits color 50 and time 20).

Unfortunately I broke one of the 0s (you might have heard my screech), so if you could tell me how I can switch it off (very first digit), that would be awesome! Like Doug wrote, I don’t need the day displayed with a leading zero.

Thank you very much in advance for your help and keep up the good work!

TheraVet,

The color is set at a global level (of sorts). The display routine for the clock (all modes) is at 1000:

If you wanted to „hack“ it (which is what I’d do to start), I would take over one of the color modes (multi-color maybe). Something like:

t = read 20, 5 ‚ read colour value from index
if p < 20 then t = read 20, 4 ‚ read a different color for date
LED.ihsv(1, t, 255, v – b) ‚ set „standard 1 colour“ at brightness V
goto 1090

This would use color „5“ for the time, and color „4“ for your date. With some more work you could make this change with the dial.

As for skipping the 0 digit, you just need to add an if before the gosub:

n = s / 10
p = 0
if n <> 0 then gosub 1000

I didn’t test any of this, but feel free to let me know if you need any additional assistance (of if I’ve misunderstood what you wanted)

[TheraVet]

You understood everything very well! Thank you! 🙂

Skipping the 0 works perfectly fine.

For testing the colors I deleted all the presets:

'color mode
1000:
    t = read 20, 4
    if p < 20 then t = read 20, 10
    LED.ihsv(1, t, 255, v)
    goto 1090
1090:
    LED.iled(1, p + read 10, n)
    return

See the result yourself 😀

Thank you very much! I keep tinkering!

*edit*
If I write
t = read 20, c
if p < 20 then t = read 20, c+6

I can change color combinations by poti. But I don’t see a pattern (yet)…
