delaying a blinking led.

[adioz]

Hello!

I'm using the USB-6009 DAQ and I want to cause a led to blink.

I know how to do this with a while loop, shift register and....

The main problem using this way is that the time when the led is OFF equals the time when the led is ON.

For example, I want the led to be ON for 0.4 Seconds and then OFF for 0.5 Seconds, then again ON for 0.4 Seconds and OFF for 0.5 Seconds(LOOP).

How can I do this with my Hardware?

Thanks alot,

It's just as simple as writing a digital 1, delay .4 sec, write a digital 0, delay .5 sec, loop.

You could use a timed loop. It simplifies a few things.

Here's a quick draft.
