Arduino/Morse Library

This is a little more information on the W5OBM Morse library, from the Arduino Ham Radio book.

Installing

Download

To install the W5OBM Morse library, download the directory containing the C code for the Morse library (link to the code).

Making a Zip File

Create a zip file from this directory, which will be called Morse.zip

Morse.zip will contain a folder called Morse/

The folder Morse will contain a file called Morse.h

Loading Library in Arduino

Now you can load the library into Arduino using the zip file you've just created.

Open the Arduino Development Environment, and pick Sketch > Include Library > Add .ZIP Library

Navigate to the zip file Morse.zip and pick it. The menu and window should close.

Using the Library in Arduino

When you re-open the Sketch > Include Library menu, you should see the library you added at the very bottom.

Using

Example Sketch

// Author Erik Linder
// Released 2011 under GNU GPLv3
//
// Usage: morse( <pin number>, <speed WPM>, <1=beep, 0=PTT> )
//        sendmsg( "<text-to-send>" )
//

#include <Morse.h>

// Uncomment to beep a speaker at pin 9
Morse morse(9, 12, 1);

void setup()
{
  // Nothing here for the Morse lib
}

void loop()
{
  morse.sendmsg("HELLO WORLD!");
  delay (2000);
  morse.send(83);
  morse.send(77);
  morse.send(48);
  morse.send(82);
  morse.send(86);
  morse.send(86);
  delay (2000);
}
