How do I run multiple "for" loops simultaenously in MATLAB?

[David Hill]

Just need one continuous loop. Just repeat commands until 3 and 5 seconds realign.

writeDigitalPin(a, 'D13', 1);
while 1
    writeDigitalPin(a, 'D11', 1);
    writeDigitalPin(a, 'D12', 1);
    pause(0.5);
    writeDigitalPin(a, 'D11', 0);
    writeDigitalPin(a, 'D12', 0);
    pause(2.5);
    writeDigitalPin(a, 'D11', 1);
    pause(0.5);
    writeDigitalPin(a, 'D11', 0);
    pause(1.5);
    writeDigitalPin(a, 'D12', 1);
    pause(0.5);
    writeDigitalPin(a, 'D12', 0);
    pause(0.5);
    writeDigitalPin(a, 'D11', 1);
    pause(0.5);
    writeDigitalPin(a, 'D11', 0);
    pause(2.5);
    writeDigitalPin(a, 'D11', 1);
    pause(0.5);
    writeDigitalPin(a, 'D11', 0);
    pause(0.5);
    writeDigitalPin(a, 'D12', 1);
    pause(0.5);
    writeDigitalPin(a, 'D12', 0);
    pause(1.5);
    writeDigitalPin(a, 'D11', 1);
    pause(0.5);
    writeDigitalPin(a, 'D11', 0);
    pause(2.5);
end

Thanks! But for this, the LED in D13 just remains on the whole time - how could I get that to blink as well?

[David Hill]

My understanding was the third was connected to a potentiometer; therefore, the pin should be high (on) continuously and you control the led (on/off/brightness) from dialing the potentiometer.

[Ramita Sajankila]

Ah yes, it is controlled by the potentiometer, but the potentiometer controls the speed at which it blinks, or turns off and on. How do i incorporate this into the cycle? The rest of it was super helpful, thank you so much!

[Kamil Olech]

Did you ever find out how to incorporate it?
