Can’t read variables from large insulated tanks?

[𝖕𝖆𝖙𝖔𝖓]

Trying to load tank pressure into my code and display it on a small led display. I’ve tried reading other variables from the tank but it won’t load anyththing. Is it a problem with my code or is it a bug?

This is my code:
alias tank d0
Alias display d1

Start:
l r0 tank Pressure
s display r0
J start

I don't think you can write to a display like that. So, that is probably the problem.

Use a console with a gas display circuitboard and then you can configure it to show the pressure of the tank

I was originally trying to write it to turn on active vents when the pressure was low, used this to test it.

My original code was:
alias tank d0

define MP 5000
define vents -842048328

start:
l r0 tank Pressure
slt r0 r0 MP
sb vents On r0
j start

Ok, so if you want to see what your code is reading from the tank,

s db Setting r0

that will write the reading in r0 to the IC housing, so you can just point at it to see the reading.

I am stupid was using the hash for the kit active vent instead of the hash for the built vent, I just wasted an hour of my life to this lol. Thank you for your help :)

oohh... that would be an easy trap to fall into.

Led Displays can be written to by IC. you need to write to the 'setting'.

alias tank d0
alias display d1
s d1 mode 0 #display has 3 modes

start:
l r0 tank pressure
s d1 setting r1
yield
j start

That should do it for ya.
Display modes:
0 - Normal number display
1 - Percentage number display - Input range of 0.0 to 1.0 is interpolated and displayed
as the range 0% to 100%
3 - Power display - Adds a watt suffix (W) to the number. Also divides the number as
needed and adds a metric unit prefix to the suffix. (e.g. kW)

Hope that helps

Nice!

This wont work.
r1 has no value.


CODE:
alias tank d0
alias display d1
s d1 mode 0 #display has 3 modes

start:
l r0 tank pressure
s d1 setting r0
yield
j start

Good spotting there, my bad typo.
