Multiplex7SegSW

set ()

Description

This functions sets up the 7 segments display. It requires information on every pin used to control the 7-segment display.

Syntax

set(byte enableZB, byte noOfDigits, byte *digitPins, byte *segmentPins)

Parameters

enableZB: enable zero blanking. If a number is displayed on the display which requires less than 4 digits the leading 0's are blanked out.

noOfDigits: number of digits used. In case of LogicStart MegaWing the number is 5 as the colon and apostrophe form the 5th digit.

digitPins: array of pin numbers that control each digit. The order must the LSB to MSB and the length of the array must confirm to the noOfDigits parameter.

segmentPins: array of pin numbers that control the digit segments. The order must be 'a' through 'g' followed by dot.

Example

(:source:)

1. include <Multiplex7SegSW>
2. define noOfDigits 5

byte digitPins[] = {11, 8, 2, 0, 28}; // LSB to MSB byte segmentPins[] = {7, 10, 5, 6, 3, 4, 9, 1}; // seg a to g and DP

Multiplex7SegSW sevenseg1;

void setup() {

   Multiplex7SegSW sevenseg1;.set(1, noOfDigits, digitPins, segmentPins);

}

void loop() {}
