Idea for these Bugreports

You guys could make a subcategory called "old bugs / fixed bugs" so it would be easy to see current versions bugs.
This way, the old bugs could be still found and solutions availabe, but the moderation and tracing new bugs would be easier!

You can delete this post if its not needed anymore!

Re: PID DC motor control with current sense and limit

Are you using any motor controller chips or etc? If you use current shunt to monitor the motor, you have to set the program (using a serial, knob, or some other ways to control) some way to know when take a action. I used in one desing 0.01ohm resistor and amplifier to feed 0-5VDC to my ADC input. T...

[SOLVED] Switch array and led array Atmega problem

When using component macro "read_all" and trying to send the value to led array "write value"... The simulation works fine, but sending code to chip returs many errors of not declared items. This bug prevents use of some items on Flowcode and affects the code generated. Chip used : Atmega168 and 328...

That does appear to be the cause of ICD not showing.

[Solved] ICD unusable from 6.0.9

ICD function seems now unusable on all PIC and AVR devices (cannot select ICD button under "Debug"--->"ICD mode"-->No underoptions).
I dont see any options anymore to go and turn it on. (In project settings) Stupid me. :lol:

Maybe try calling the set volume macro before you call the play sound macro just to make sure the volume is not set to 0.

Also with the filename you pass try matching the name exactly so "testi.wav" instead of "testi.WAV".
Tried both, still no sound cannot be heard.

DATA pin of ICD cannot be changed on ATMEL chips

The ICD data pin defaults to A port when i try to change it (AtMega 32, 168, 328, 16, 128 etc). Is there any workaround for this problem? I have PCB wich i desinged to use the PG4 and PG3 for ICD. If it defaults to port A, i cannot even change it back to B port.

Re: adc voltage sample program

Could you post your Flowchart which you try to get to the at90s8535 still so we could see if there is something wrong? I could take look at it, have fought so many fights with the AVR side of Flowcode since V4. ;) :D

Do you use extrenal crystal? Is this problem reproduceable on another mcu of same type?

Make sure in config that there is no option like div osc by 8 or similar option checked?
