THE Sketch I used in the tutorial:
#define photo (A1)
#define timer 11
#define b1 2
int photoVal;
int b1Val = 0;
void setup() {
pinMode (timer,OUTPUT);
pinMode (b1,INPUT);
}
void loop() {
b1Val = (digitalRead(b1));
if (b1Val == 1)
{
delay(10);
digitalWrite(timer,HIGH);
photoVal = (analogRead(photo));
while (photoVal>500)
{
photoVal = (analogRead(photo));
delay(1);
}
digitalWrite(timer,LOW);
}
}
