Cheap Controls Episode 10, Pt 3 Floats and Nextion EEPROM tutorial
I published two videos this week. The first one is on sending a value to the Nextion and setting the decimal point for a float item. The second video goes over the basics of using the built in eeprom on the Nextion Display.
I also discuss upcoming projects or my lack of up coming projects. -
Cheap Controls Episode 9, Pt 2 Floats and Arduino control of Nextion dual action button
I published two videos this week. One used the dtostrf command. This video made me look into arrays more. I discuss changing a dual state button based on the LED output. I implement timers to change the LEDs on a 2.5 and 5-sec interval. When the lights change I send the current output value to the Nextion. I also show how to change the LEDs by pressing the button on the Nextion and sending a signal to the Arduino. I then reset the timer so the LED will stay in that state for the interval configured by the Arduino. This was a fun project to make.
I also discuss upcoming projects and my cruise vacation I am taking this week.
