NeoPixel (WS2812B) Demo

[richard]

Could i use all this code as a secondary code
But the main program not to be affected by this code.
?

using that code it takes about 1mS to send data to 24 ws2812's . so if your main program can tolerate 1mS gaps in processing every 50mS it would work ok

if you used a more modern chip with a clc module then you could adapt my code
found here :-

that updates the leds as a background interrupt driven process with very very little overhead

see this thread for that and other more efficient possibilities

But i really dont know how to import all this code or how to use this DT's interrupt method here.

what have you tried ?

Many years ago, i did a simple RFID reader program.

What it does is to read the RFID tag and if the ID number is stored in the PIC's ram, then it will make a port high.

That is the whole program.

I haven't tried anything yet to embed the above RGB code. What i would like to do with this code, is to work on the backround as an effect, when:

The RFID tag is valid: to light the RGB ring in Green, then to continue working on the backround.
The RFID tag is not valid: to light up the RGB ring in LED.

I will try without interrupt and i will add the RFID code inside the main of the RGB code. Will let you know.

this is the addition to the main:

serin2 rfid,84,[WAIT($02),str BUF\10]
                                
Check_List:
  FOR tagNum = 1 to 3       ' scan through known tags
    FOR idx = 0 TO 9		' scan bytes in tag
    READ (((tagNum-1)*10) + idx), char	' get tag data from table
    IF (char <> buf(idx)) THEN Bad_Char		' compare tag to table
    NEXT
    GOsub Tag_Found			' all bytes match!

Bad_Char:					' try next tag
  NEXT
  
Bad_Tag:
  tagNum = 0
    FREQOUT porta.3, 1000 */ $100, 115 */ $100	' groan
