Thank you both Leigh & Martin,

Between the info from the both of you, I was able to start using the AM2320.
This was more valuable to me right now than than you might imagine, as this is not
for just a "pass the time" project.

I appreciate the information from both of you.

Hello, This sensor appears to be just the ticket for the project I am working on, with its 12 bit accuracy in both temp/hum. No need for calibration,price, and other features. However, upon reading the datasheet for the AM2320, it appears to be a I2C device, yet the only talk I have seen of it on th...

The GHOST technology is something I was really looking forward to. It is to ambiguous and needs more development and documentation. So unfortunately, like others, I rely on tried and true methods for programming. I really think it has a lot of potential, and hope it gets developed further, so using ...

Hello all, I am trying to name a couple momentary switches, I seem to be able to make text, but not add it to my panel. I don't know where it is going, if anywhere. One other question for stepping through programs, Is there a way to step through, and press one of the buttons as well? This way I can ...

Hi Leigh,
Yes that is it. I've even written programs in that way myself.
Really don't understand how I missed the obvious there...........
Thanks,

Hello all, I have the start of a splash program I am writing for my MikroElektronika EasyPic V7 development board which has plenty of LED's, a buzzer, display, and such I can include. The program, as is runs once, but I would like it to loop. I am using macros, as the program will be getting much mo...

Hello BenJ, Sorry for the long response time, life does get in the way sometimes. But good news, the MLoader software seems to be working fine for my programming issue. I do have a question for you regarding the EB-006 V9 board, as I am using V7 FC, and would like to see what the Ghost capabilities ...

Hello Pro's, EB-006-06 board with chip labeled D.O.M. 10/12 /2010 Using FC7 on 64 bit Windows 7 desktop. MikroElektronika EasyPic V7 development board, which is a great platform. Up until recently I have been using PIC16F877A, now I have tried PIC16F1937,PIC16F1979, as well as several other types of...

Thank You for that, got it working!

The solution Leigh posted I did not really understand.

Could someone could give me some further help?

Please insert what he had in mind into my code attached, so I can single step through it and learn it.
Thank You.

Thank you for the reply, But I just don't understand the A & 1 portion. Is there still a fmod in the program? Or did you manage to remove that. It seems you are treating 1 as a variable.......... Please send code with response. Sorry, for the ignorance, I am new to what you are doing. NOT a Trump vo...

Hello, I am trying to display a LED on a every bit of every port sequentially. To keep from having more than 1 led at a time on, I want to rule out all odd numbers. Display 1 then 2, then 4, etc, on every port. The program is not complete i am aware, but I know that nothing is going to work as I wan...

Hello, This "Intro to MicroControllers" is what I originally learned on, and was just the format I needed to make learning the then FC V3 product I had purchased easy for me. I am now using V6, and want to teach it to my daughter, using the same format that worked so well for me. Attached is a scree...

Jac, Thanks for the input, I believe I see what you are talking about, after seeing how variables are used in macros. "When you use local variables you can create a macro that accepts the channel as parameter and returns the value." I am assuming that when you use a local variable to (in this case )...

Thank you Martin, The code actually makes me look worse at this than I am. 1)I have completed (sucsessfully) the "Intro to Microcontrollers" with all the experiments, and each worked). But there were no Local Variables brought up in that. This was prior to me purchasing V6. 2) I did not even know I ...

Hello all, I am writing a program that has multiple inputs and outputs, I am writing it with macros, to help keep the program structured, and not a hot mess of a main program. Hardware is my forte'. I *will* be re-learning C, and mastering FC6 to be able to be able to be a more functional programmer...

Leigh,
This was more than a solution, it was a great bit of usable information in making components, and programming as well.
Very useful for all other projects.
Thanks again,
-Craig

LeighM, i really like your solution, And thanks so much for the start of the code needed, I would have had some problems without it, as I am still learning FC6. Are 2 of the 3 variants of the program for 32 or 64 bit? test_mux.fcfx opened right up on my Win 7 64 bit computer. And mux16.fcpx was not ...

Benj, That will get me by on the 1st 8 Analog inputs, but I have 16 analog voltages to read, all from separate sources. And even then it would mean I couldn't use the code the way it will be written/ run in the actual project, making it a exercise in futility. The 16 channels will be coming from pot...

But I have so many analog inputs in my project, I will be using a MUX to change from 1 signal to the next. It shows that in my program. I first choose an input using the output of Channel B, going to a MUX then I sample the selected signal. Any way to sim this? If I can't get to simulate this in the...

Hello people, The program attached has 4 potentiometers in it, with only 2 involved in the start of this program, and for some reason, if I move any one of them, they all turn equally and simultaneously amount. Strangely enough, I would prefer them to move individually. :o What simple, stupid thing ...

To answer your question, quite frankly no, I actually forgot to check the datasheet for that. I am on painkillers, pre knee surgery and have been having a tough time thinking clearly. But thanks for the information anyway. It does answer my question, so 1 credit for you in the "thanks" field. Thank ...

Hello all, I just got done troubleshooting a programming a problem through trial and error, a method which is time consuming and frustrating. My system with Flowcode 4 or 6 would not program, or at least run the pics I tried to program if the setting was XT. HS solved the issue it turned out. So I a...

Who can tell me which one won't run after being programmed, and why, because this FC 6 rookie is LOST. I really do need to know this, as I am completely stuck, and need to get a project done. I have had this problem in the past, where an older version of a program works, (in V4.5) but a re-written "...

Hi all, I need a 3 POSITION ROTARY SWITCH for my project that is under a time crunch. I admit I have not not found let alone seen the component creation video. All I am looking for is a 2D 3 position switch with one common pin. Need it for my program / sim panel. As I am new to FC 6, I should ask, s...
