Topic: Is this possible?

Hello everyone. I am making a large 7 segment dog agility timer that I hope will work using a node MCU controller. It will have 3 remote switches for start/split time/end. The 7 segment part I want to use WS2812b led strings, like in this project: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WUU8AQsf2Zw
My question is can you insert other code into the remotexy sketch? can remotexy output a time to the screen?
Thanks in advance.

Marz

Welcome,

Yes it's possible, simply add a Text String element, then put the time into it using sprintf or any other function that can convert numbers to a null terminated char array.

Re: Is this possible?

Hello Genius Shev,

Q1) can i run same ((same project )) on two DIFFERENT cell phones at same time?
example >> i create one single simple remotexy project to read home temperature and both me and my wife have access to it at same time?  >>>> i tried but 2nd device does not connect unlessi close 1st cell phone says"Device already used by another app" .. why not multi instances?

Q2) CAN ((1 PROJECT )) communicate with two MCU devices at same time?
example>> i build one remotexy project to read two temperature from two different rooms by two different arduino devices but both report at same remote xy? possible?

Q3) i am using Edit field as a password so i need it to either shown as **** or cleared after few second.. how can i clear it ""automatically"" without press on X mark ?

thank you creating this app Sir
