# Telegraph
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Arduino library for automatically sending Morse code signals. Manual control,
|
||
|
|
speed adjustments, and use of active-on-low relays are supported.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Usage
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Check the example sketches, especially `Telegraph_Demo`, for more information.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Setup
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To create a `Telegraph` object, use the code:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Telegraph telegraphName(pinNumber, speedInWordsPerMinute, HIGH);
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(Use `LOW` instead of `HIGH` for an active-on-low relay. If you're using a
|
||
|
|
relay and aren't sure whether it's active-on-low or not, just try it with
|
||
|
|
`HIGH`; if your relay is active-on-low, keying will be opposite of what is
|
||
|
|
expected.)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Sending messages
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To send a message in Morse code, run this:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
telegraphName.send("MESSAGE");
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The following characters can be used in messages:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890.,?'!/()&:;=+-_"$@
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Lowercase letters are supported. Unsupported characters will not be
|
||
|
|
transmitted, but may cause gaps in timing.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Adjusting speed
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To change the transmission speed after creating the `Telegraph`, run:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
telegraphName.wpm = 25;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Manual control
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To manually turn the pin on and off, just use these commands:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
telegraphName.on();
|
||
|
|
telegraphName.off();
