How to make LED (LD2) in NUCLEO-G474RE stop blinking ?

jefazo92 · ‎2020-03-14

Hi everyone,

I am trying to play around with the demonstration application included in the NUCLEO-G474RE. The user LED (LD2) blinks at 3 different frequences (increasing order) and one can shift between them by pressing the B1 switch (blue switch) and at the 4th press it resets back to the 1st frequency. The B2 switch (black switch) is used to reset the LED back to the 1st frequency. I am reading the program but don't know where the section of code to make the LED stop blinking (or change the frequency) is. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Here I leave the main.c code:

The button and LED GPIOs are initialized in your code, but their actual function is missing. So, this is not the code running on your board.
