Submit for the One Hertz Challenge
07/18/2025 at 19:37 • 0 commentsThe following video shows a 220-volt lamp being switched on and off by the relay system at a frequency of 1 hertz, accurate to within 1%
This oscilloscope trace demonstrates the precision of the timing: the rising edges occur at intervals of 1.01 seconds.
And here you see a picture of the new output-module of the relay system. The new memory mapped output register is located at memory address 2.
And this was the programm to switch on/off the lamp:
daten[0] = 0x4000; // BA
daten[1] = 3;
daten[3] = 0x3540; // NOT
daten[4] = 0x0000;
daten[5] = 0x2800; // STAM
daten[6] = 0x0002;
daten[7] = 0x3540; // NOT
daten[8] = 0x0000;
daten[9] = 0x2800; // STAM
daten[10] = 0x0002;
daten[11] = 0x3540; // NOT
--- and so on until end of memory ---
The system is not fast enough to switch on/off the lamp using a loop...
