Flowcode 4 - the detail
Flowcode
4 use of macros allows
users to control highly complex electronic
devices without getting bogged
down in understanding the programming involved.
Following feedback from our users, we have made the following
enhancements:
Panel Creator - create realistic new panels for your hardware using panel
creator and then simulate your hardware in operation.
In Circuit Debug - allows you to step through your program one icon at the same time as executing the program on your hardware.
Virtual Networks - Flowcode 4 allows you to use several instances of Flowcode simultaneously to simulate chip to chip
communications across a virtual network using protocols such as CAN, RS232,
SPI, etc.
C Code Customization - all component C Code can now be customized to match your
needs by adding new functionality or editing existing component macros.
Switch Icon -create neater and more efficient flowcharts by using this
new icon.
Floating Point - full floating maths library now included.
Other new features include:
