Hi,

It seems several E-Block components are not available in the FC V6 menus.
Are they available somewhere to add them ?
Are we expected to create them using other base components, or is it planned they will gradually be added to FC V6 ?

Hi, I'm currently adapting the webserver component of the Internet EB023-1 Internet E-Block to allgin it with the webserver component of the EB069 Wireless LAN E-Block. The differences between EB023-1 and EB069 webserver I'm working on are : - return value of the macro : (EB023-1 returns status whil...

I believe everything is connected correctly.
To make sure the e-block is functioning i was looking for the Test program "EB023_test.hex" mentioned in the e-block pdf but couldn't find it on the website.
Where can i find "EB023_test.hex" ?

Hi,

There seems to be something wrong with the webserver component for EB023-1.
The initialise macro never ends.

Sample program attached.

Hi,

I'm not sure about Flowcode, but most programming languages expect a "seed" value to be used.
So, try to use random(256) instead of random.
This would mean a random value between 0 and 256 -1 will be returned.

Hi, Indeed, adding a delay as sugested solves the problem. I did some tests changing the delay value and found even 1 µs is sufficient to make it work. Question, What is the usual pratice for this kind of problems ? Would the component be changed to include an additional delay in the next release ? ...

Yes, I'm using Flowcode V4.

I did try to use jumper setting 1 which connects CTS to C0.
This is the setting that works fine, if i send each macro call twice as you can see in the attached flowcode program.

I can try C1 or C2 as well, but not right now.

Hi, Meanwhile i made some progress. Looking at the RS232 diagram in the E-Block datasheet I noticed a remark "Host must transmit CMD/DATA within 10ms of BUSY going low". That made me think this might be a timing issue with the component macro's. I did some trial and errors with different delays in t...

Thanks for the feedback John. I've tried those settings and it does make a difference, but it still doesn't work. Using the settings RFID jumpers to "C" and "2" with CTS to port C bit 4 i get the following results - Init macro reply : 255 - Get RFid status macro : 255 Using the settings RFID jumpers...

Hi, I tested the RFID on EB006 and it works fine. However, it doesn't work on EICO-40. Does anyone know the correct jumper settings to use RFID on EICO-40 ? I'm using : Port B : LCD Port C : RFID Port D : Led On EB006 with 16F877 it works fine. RFID 16F877.fcf On EICO-40 with EB061 ECIO application ...

Hi, I tried to use the webserver component but get errors at compile. The compile to C works, but the compile to hex fails. To avoid any errors i tried to put the webserver initialise only in a flow showing the same result : ........... 16F887A_WebServer_Test1.c(1162:24): error: unknown identifier '...

Hi,
I'm using FlowCode 4 and EB006 multiprogrammer since a while.
Now, I'm checking out to use PIC18F66J10 for a project. I see it's in the list of FlowCode supported PICs. However this one has 64pins while the programmer supports up to 40 pins.
How to get the Flowcode program into the PIC18F66J10 ?
