I have the following problem using tilt sensor in my Arduino program. Without tilt sensor everything works correct, but during using tilt sensor the functions works not in the right order.
Hier first my version without tilt sensor. This version works fine. I' am using 710 leds in 5 lines. I have 4 functions, which starts one after another. The same principle i want to have using the tilt sensor. If i change the tilt position the program must start from another side of my light panel, like in hourglass.
#include <Adafruit_NeoPixel.h>
#define PIN 6 // led
Adafruit_NeoPixel strip = Adafruit_NeoPixel(710, PIN, NEO_GRB + NEO_KHZ800);

strip.begin();
strip.show();
}
void loop() {
colorWipe(strip.Color(255, 147, 41), 127);
colorWipe1(strip.Color(255, 147, 41), 127); //warm white
colorWipe2(strip.Color(1, 1, 1), 127); //black effect
colorWipe3(strip.Color(255, 147, 41), 127); //candle effect

If i use only 2 functions colorWipe and colorWipe3 (they starts from different sides of light panel) it works fine, but if i add colorWipe1 after colorWipe, i have the following mistake: colorWipe and colorWipe1 starts together, however without tilt each function starts after the previous function.
Thanks Andy
Hier the possible answer:
If someone are interesting i'll add other functions too.
