Hello Fellow Reefer!!!
I am in the process of doing two projects one is led+t5 light and other is arduino. so in this thread im going to focus on the controller.
it my first time building the controller so i would just use it mainly to have the ability to control the light as in dimming up or down or have sunrise and sunset effect. In the long run i will add more stuff as in temp, ato, orp n ph. This controller will be little different because i will be using touchscreen lcd :thumb:. so i have lot of questions and need alot of advice as well esp with the coding. I have order the kit it said it suppose to arrive on the 29th of this month. it Mega2560+3.2" TFT LCD Shield+Touch Screen SD Reader for Arduino 2560 from sainsmart. I know i need to get a rtc but is there anything else i need to get as well? Oh yea I just realize that the driver that im getting is analog so is there a way to convert analog into PWM? if so please help or tell me thanks
