Hello,

That is great, thank you!
Concerning the embedded, do I change only the component? The rest of the concept ( flowchart details) remain the same?

Thank you

Hello,

Is there a way to use the androip app aforementioned, to communicate with the wifi board instead the internet board?


THank you

hello,

I did not quite understood, which unit is under 3 pounds?

Thank you.

Thank you Ben!

I will study the links and if I have questions I will come back!

P.S

Is it possible to have that android app to communicates with eblocks directly through the usb port?


Thank you..

Hello, I have the following 2.4 Ghz module RFM70D ( http://telefab.fr/lab/media/datasheet/RFM70.pdf ) which works with SPI. I did not get it to work still but I guess that is a simple communication between the module and PIC through SPI - send receive bytes through the flowcode macros. My question i...

Hello, I wanted to ask if Matrix Mult. has any plans releasing any android app that can connect directly on the zigbee or any other module of the matrix boards? Also another idea is, for an app with which the phone would connect through wifi to a PC running a server software; which server can commun...

Hello, 1.Is it possible with the eb071 board to have 10 image files and whether they will be displayed or not, will be up to me when to do that? 2.The project I need to do is to have 10 images each one having the corresponding number on it and when user clicks the button to scroll up or down ( if UP...

Hello, I am interested in the EB-033 vga board. 1. Using the test files found in the web site what is the output on the VGA monitor? 2.Are there going to be any macros for the board? 3.If I am going to use the vga board will it be easy to output on the monitor simple graphics or it will be the type ...

Hello, Actually the laptop is newly formatted but never the less I have changed the PID and VID but no success. I had the impression that after downloading the flowcode routine to ECIO containing the serial component then windows would re-detect ECIO as USB-something device and then would ask for th...

Hello Ben, I do not know why I am kind of lost with this -since I have done it before!- but I cannot make the ECIO to appear as com device in device manager. I can only make it to appear as custom USB device> flowcode USB slave. Is that how is supposed to be? I remember once that it could appear as ...

Hello,

In order to connect my ECIO as COM device what are the steps?

Thank you in advance,

Hello Ben, I am looking at Flowcode_v4_examples\examples\components\usb slave\slave interface VB etc then the ECIO_Interface_Example.exe By the way in order to program ecio or PIC for USB coms then will I have to install the USB pack? or should I only insert to the pic the USB slave component? Thank...

Hello Ben,

Thank you for the reply.

Can you please tell me how to create an exe of VBA form, from Excel as the one you have in the examples folder?
I can see that the example you have is in exe format but designing in Excel is just in Excel format.

Thank you,

Hello, I am aware of some visual basic sample that Ben has made for reading from eblocks. 1. I want to ask Ben if he has and if he can give us the source code that visual basic uses in order to establish a communication with eblocks? Actually I need to build a different GUI but I need also to link i...

Hello Enamul,

Many thanks for you reply!

If you are planning to use external CAN controller with PIC you need both MCP2515 & MCP 2551.

I thought that the Matrix CAN board had these controllers embedded?

Thank you,

Hello, I have the can bus board and I need to set it up in order to communicate with a generator. My question is: 1. How will I be able to "listen" to all incoming messages from the generator's ECU? 2.If I connect the CAN bus to an engine's ECU will I accomplish a communication or do I need any extr...

Hello, Actually I didn't do something to get it working; because it needed something specific but I just eliminated something I was doing wrong and also placed the tranceiver to a better board! :) I am attaching the datasheet. Actually the connections and procedure is as described in the datasheet, ...

Hello Ben, As you describe in your above example then if I have a macro "set position" and the byte value is 3, then if I call another macro "move to position" once, then the servo will move to position 1, if I call it again then the servo will move to position 2 and if I call it again the servo wil...

Hello,

I have finally made it and the tranceivers are now communicating!

So if anyone needs to add some 433Mhz connectivity to their project these tranceivers do the work!

Bets Regards

Hello, I have been experimenting with tranceivers and more specifically the following: HM-TR433/TTL from Hope Rf electronics. 2 years ago when I was doing the experiments- communicating between 1 tranceiver with another- I managed to establish a communication for a few days but after something went ...

Great Thanks! 1. I am trying the automove and at the 3rd parameter "stepSpeedMs" even if every time I state as parameter 0 or 100 or 255, I cannot really see any speed difference! Any suggestions? 2. If I set macro to > Set position 250, then can I set a macro stating : move to position 250 and then...

Hello Thanks for the replies. John your routine didn't work! :) Martin, your's did! Although seems to be working a little bit slow but maybe it is because of the interrupts? Also, (haven't looked at the routine yet) but zero degrees are not actually at zero and 180 degrees are somewhere about to 90 ...

Hello Ben, I understand your theory but, is it still valid even if I manage to get the servo from angle 0 to angle 180 directly and instantaneously using the timer0 and the servo still works fine? So, about the extra 5v PSU, how to I "plug" it in my existing hardware arrangement? Do I use the 5V "no...

Hello, I am writing here as extension for a previous topic : http://www.matrixmultimedia.com/mmforums/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=8551&start=25 (MX027 - Controlling a Servomotor with timer0 interrupt) I am attaching the fcf file that I download to 18F455o that does not work. I have set the expert configura...

Ben,

I still cannot get the servo component to work as expected even with a brand new servo. At large angles the servo board looses power and I need to reset the board. As aforementioned the servo works perfectly with the timer0.

Any other recommendations???

Best Regards
