    Hello;

    I would like to change the code so that when the clock detonates (no wires cut), the countdown automatically restarts. Would inserting countdown(); again after the “add back fractional seconds” section (line 498 in the Ver. 2 code) do that?
    Thanks!

    No, you don’t want to call countdown() from within countdown()! That would be a recursive call.

    In loop(), you want to just repeatedly call countdown. Replace the call to countdown() with:

    while (!isDefused) {
    countdownSeconds = defaultCountdownSeconds();
    displayCountdown = true;
    displayZeros = false;
    countdown();
    }

    While compiling the code, I received error: ‘defaultCountdownSeconds’ cannot be used as a function
    I removed the parens from the line
    countdownSeconds = defaultCountdownSeconds;()
    and it compiled fine. As I’ve mentioned in other posts, I’m new to Arduino, and not much of a programmer.
    Will this work? I don’t have my programming interface yet…
    Thanks.

    Yes, that’s right. Not sure how I put those parentheses in there.

    Cool! Just uploaded it and it works great. I wanted a “demo mode” so this could be displayed with a running timer. I also modified the code to beep only in the last 10 seconds of the countdown and flash pin 23 for only 50 msec. upon detonation. After detonation, the display blanks for 10 seconds before recycling. I’m posting the complete (commented, with the tag “new code”) code here for anyone else’s use. BTW, this is my first Arduino coding experience! (had to truncate comments, sorry)
