  • Arduino: Putting It Together

    This post continues the Arduino series, modifying a Morse code program to receive messages via the Serial monitor. The goal is to enable the Arduino to blink out any received message. It explains two program versions: one blinks the message once after receiving it, while the other continuously blinks until a new message arrives.

  • Arduino: If & For

    This post continues a series on Arduino programming, focusing on modifying the “Blink” program to transmit Morse code. It aims to enhance the code’s efficiency by introducing functions that eliminate redundancy and simplify message changes.

    This is part of a series of posts on getting started with Arduino. Others in the series include: Arduino: Getting Started Arduino: Basic Troubleshooting Arduino: Understanding the Structure of C Arduino: Understanding Blink Arduino: Modifying Blink Arduino: Functions & Variables While our goal remains to convert the Blink program into one that will take input from the…

  • Arduino: Functions & Variables

    This post is part of an Arduino series focused on programming through modifications of the “Blink” program. It explains how to change the LED’s on/off duration and control external LEDs. By making small adjustments to the existing code, beginners can better understand programming and enhance their Arduino skills through practical applications.
