I have been playing around with the TCS230 deluxe kit.

Recently my Red value is in the 300 range.

Anyone know how to adjust it, or reset it?

Thanks,

Chris

    You can either shorten the count time, or just scale it back, i.e. Red = Red ** 55705, which is equivalent to Red = Red * 0.85.

    Dig it, So I guess that's kind of what the white balance does in the program the documentation comes with.

    Thank you.

    Yes, the ColorDemo program has a very precise white reference program (requires a BS2pe) that calculates the reference period for the count instruction. After running that, the values won't exceed 255.
