Cheap Controls

Cheap Controls Episode 5, Nextion Slider, Arduino PWM, and get command


Listen Later

In the episode, I the one and only Ed Malloy discuss this past week's videos.  Answer a lucky listeners question and talk about the direction Cheap Controls is heading.

We published three videos this week.  The first one was the final in series that had Nextion control a pulse width modulated output on an Arduino.  We had two separate sliders control two individual LEDs.  The video was #12c.  The next two were the start in the get command series.  The first was a simple setup video.  We went over the HMI Nextion configuration and programmed the Arduino with the initial code.  This was more of a refresher video for any longtime followers of your videos.  The second video showed the Arduino sending the get command and the data that is sent back from the Nextion.  We did not get into the parsing of the data.  We felt it was important to split this video up and go into as much detail as we can.  As always, we avoid using the Nextion.h library.
