LED_Control ( )

This function provides control of the LEDs on the board. Call the LED_Init() function to initialize the LED ports to output direction before making calls to this function.

Function Definition

void LED_Control (unsigned char led_num, unsigned char led_mode, unsigned char led_blink_rate) {...}

Inputs

Name Type Description Example Value
led_num unsigned char Number designated to the LED on the hardware LED_NUM_0, LED_NUM_1, ..., LED_NUM_7
led_mode unsigned char Configures the LED to stay in either a steady on/off state or blink periodically. LED_MODE_ON, LED_MODE_OFF, LED_MODE_BLINK
led_blink_rate unsigned char Configures the blink rate of the LED, if it has been programmed to blink. Value has no effect when LED is set to a steady on or off state. LED_BLINK_RATE_SLOW, LED_BLINK_RATE_MEDIUM, LED_BLINK_RATE_FAST

Return

None

Example Function Call

To make LED0 blink at a medium rate:

LED_Control(LED_NUM_0, LED_MODE_BLINK, LED_BLINK_RATE_MEDIUM);

To turn LED1 off:

LED_Control(LED_NUM_1, LED_MODE_OFF, LED_BLINK_RATE_SLOW);
