Examples
Example program showing how to use the starburst display component to display alphanumeric ASCII characters.
Starburst Test
Example program showing how to multiplex between several starburst displays. Takes an ADC reading and displays the reading in decimal using 4 starburst display components.
Starburst Multi
Example program showing how to multiplex between several starburst displays. Takes an ADC reading and displays the reading in hexadecimal using 4 starburst display components.

ClearSegments
|
ClearSegments |
| This funtion clears all the individual segments including the decimal point segment. In simulation this sets the colours to the default BGColor component variable. | |
 - VOID
|
Return |

Property reference
|
Properties |
|
Display Segments |
| Controls the starburst display type and number of segments available. | |
|
|
Display Type |
| Set this property to match your hardware device. Common Anode: Common Pin High, Segment Pin Low = LED On Common Cathode: Common Pin Low, Segment Pin High = LED On | |
|
|
Common Mode |
| Controls if the display will be multiplexed or always on. Multplexed uses the common pin to switch a individual display on or off allowing for multiple displays. Always on removes the common pin assuming you are only using a single starburst display. | |
|
Show Seg Labels |
| Show the identifier lables of the segments overlayed over the component. | |
|
Connections |
|
Pin A |
| Pin connected to the 'A' segment of the display. | |
|
|
Pin B |
| Pin connected to the 'B' segment of the display. | |
|
|
Pin C |
| Pin connected to the 'C' segment of the display. | |
|
|
Pin D |
| Pin connected to the 'D' segment of the display. | |
|
|
Pin E |
| Pin connected to the 'E' segment of the display. | |
|
|
Pin F |
| Pin connected to the 'F' segment of the display. | |
|
|
Pin G1 |
| Pin connected to the 'G1' segment of the display. | |
|
|
Pin G2 |
| Pin connected to the 'G2' segment of the display. | |
|
|
Pin H |
| Pin connected to the 'H' segment of the display. | |
|
|
Pin I |
| Pin connected to the 'I' segment of the display. | |
|
|
Pin J |
| Pin connected to the 'J' segment of the display. | |
|
|
Pin K |
| Pin connected to the 'K' segment of the display. | |
|
|
Pin L |
| Pin connected to the 'L' segment of the display. | |
|
|
Pin M |
| Pin connected to the 'M' segment of the display. | |
|
|
Pin DP |
| Pin connected to the decimal point segment of the display. | |
|
|
Common |
| Pin connection to the 'common' pin of the display - to allow enable/disable of the whole display. | |
|
|
Colors |
|
LED Color |
| Color when an LED is turned on. When turned off, will use a much darker shade of the same hue. | |
|
|
Bezel Color |
| Color of the plastic package housing the LEDs | |
|
|
Label Color |
| Color of the optional segment name labels. | |
