Timer (Emergencie)



  • Hi, i have this project where i control the the time (0-20 s) that a relay is actuated, i have a button to turn the relay and i want another button to turn off the relay in any moment, like a emergencie button. I though about running a parallel program but i dont know if it possible, here is the code.

    "
    int potPin = A0;
    int ledPin = 13;
    const int buttonPin = 2;

    void setup() {
    Serial.begin(9600);
    pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT);

    pinMode(buttonPin, INPUT);

    }

    void loop()
    {
    int buttonState = digitalRead(buttonPin);

    int val = analogRead(potPin);
    long tempo = (val*19.550342131);
    Serial.print(val);
    Serial.print("tempo:");

    // read the value from the sensor
    if (buttonState==HIGH) {

    digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH);
    delay(tempo);
    digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW);
    } else {}; // turn the ledPin off

    delay(500);
    }
    "


  • Mod

    Use an if statement instead of delay and use millis to count time passed, when time is up turn off pin.



  • if it is an emergency button should be connected directly to relay (connected by hardware). And not using code,because if arduino it's freezed it will not respond and you cant stop it
