Hello, The board in the first link you sent is the board only and does not include the backing board. We can certainly supply this too though. I think we can also do the 4-digit display for you, it's something we use internally so I don't see why not. I would either phone or email our sales team and...

Hi Tom, There are some examples here that might help. https://www.matrixtsl.com/wiki/index.php?title=Component:_ID_e18e39d3_2e05_4a15_b8aa_e8ada16cd3ef I've just got some hardware with the W5500 chip mounted so I'm going to be playing with it very soon and hopefully I can help more then. Leigh may k...

Hello, Do you have anything connected to the pins. It seems strange I've not come across this recently. What seems to be happening is this. First you set bit 2 of port c and the portc register gets this value portc = portc | (1<<2) = 0x04 Then when you set bit 1 of port c the reading of the portc re...

Hi Jorgen, I beleive I have now fixed the problems that you and Martin have reported. The one missing is the missing G segment on hardware. Can you test the DP segment and see if the G and DP are reversed on your hardware. If they are then I might have to create some kind of a mapping function to al...

Thanks Martin,

I've now fixed these problems Just looking through Jorgen's thread now to see if I can work through these issues too.

Another thing I noticed is your I coeffient is greater than 1, ideally this should be less than 1.

The main deal breaker I beleive is the properties of the timer interrupt icon, currently set to no clock

Hello, Please can you try these components, I've re-built them using v7 and can't see anything in them that would cause a crash but maybe this will solve the problem for you? gLCD_SSD1322.fcpx gLCD_SSD1322_buffered.fcpx If not then do both components cause a crash. e.g. if you have only one or the o...

I wonder if it's a file permissions or path problem. Can you create a blank project in the same folder and compile that to C?

Hello, First I would check your clock speed setting is ok by using something like this without an interrupt. https://www.matrixtsl.com/wiki/index.php?title=One_second_LED_flasher I see you have custom C code to set the clock so maybe this is having an incorrect effect? If the interrupt is firing too...

Hello, I get this when trying to compile in v7.3. Target folder: C:\Users\BenR\Desktop Source name: C:\Users\BenR\Desktop\SSD1622_newtest_8080.fcfx Title: Description: Device: PIC.16F.16F887 Generated by: Flowcode v7.3.0.7 Date: Wednesday, January 29, 2020 17:51:55 Users: 1 Registered to: Dev User L...

Hello,

Is that a v8 program? it seems to be due to it's target device.

It's compiling for me using the latest version 8.2 and the latest component updates.

v7 program also working ok for me and compiling correctly. What version of v7 are you running?

OK I've added the component to the update system now. If anyone has a go with it then let me know how you get on.

Hello, Component has now been created and tested. I've now pushed it to the update system, just do a full database update in v8 and you should get the new component. I had problems using internal weak pull ups on the I2C pins, you need external 10K pullups for it to work nicely. Let me know how you ...

Hello,

The Arduino Mega requires the Arduino (ARD) chip pack. The Uno is included in our free chips offering.

Excellent thanks for that Martin,

I could wrap this up into a component if that would be useful. This way you could set the number of 7-seg digits and simulate.

Hello, Wow sounds like you're really making some good progress there. I've spoken to the Flowcode engine programmer regardng this and it sounds doable. Though whether or not we can squeeze this in for you so Flowcode will allow you to do this automatically is up in the air at the moment. It sounds e...

Hi Stefan,

I've sent you a PM regarding this.

Another thing I spotted on page 4 & 5 of the datsheet details the minimum VCC fall time in microseconds. Look for the "Power supply transition timing" diagram. It needs the fall time to be at least 300uS. This sounds like it could be linked to the problems you're having. What value of ...

Hi Spencer,

Did you buy the MCP7940 from a reputable supplier? If not it could potentially be a cheap Chinese clone.

Hello,

Have you started with something simple like this to confirm the configuration of the new chip?

Hi Tom, It might be worth trying Avrdudess to get the right settings. It's basically a GUI for AVRdude to allow you to try various settings. Once you have a setup that works then let us know and we will create a new Flowcode definition for the device. Or you can tweak the FCDX definition file yourse...

Hello, thank for reply; i have see your link and i hope it is also valid because is a very hold reply. Yes I believe that is still currently valid. Yes I can confirm this is still our policy. You can install on multiple machines as long as only one is in use at any time. There is a cap on the number...

Hello, You can also use without the help of IT if you need to by placing the component file into a folder of your choosing and then pointing Flowcode at that folder via the View -> Global Options -> Locations Tab. Add the folder path to the "Look for components in..." section and then rest...

Hello,

I've compared the v7 and v8 components for the SSD1322 and nothign is jumping out at me.

There was a fix for the component posted here, have you applied these fixes to your v7?
viewtopic.php?f=63&t=19743

I've exported the component for v7 for you as there wasn't too much to it. Hopefully it should work ok.

Simply copy to your "Flowcode V7\Components\" folder and restart Flowcode.



Let us know how you get on.
