No. I do not think he was meaning PWM. I think I was meaning that the interval between each blink could be e.g. 12 sec instead of 2 sec. PWM is used in the on-time to blink the led on and off very fast so that it appears as always on, but dimmed. -- Please don't send me Word or PowerPoint attachments.
