Re: Problems ILI9341 SPI after update

Hi Did you try rolling back the component to a previous version? Library Updates / Full Database / Show up to date files. You can then select a previous version by selecting your component and clicking New Revision and selecting the previous version you wish to try. Do note that the next time you ru...

Re: 3 ideas for FC

Hi Usually I just save a copy at key points with a brief description. However as FC can automatically create a backup every x-seconds (Global Settings > Application), which overwrites previous, maybe an option to overwrite and if not checked it creates a "new" timestamped backup file ? Obviously you...

Re: PIC18F25K22 UART ERROR

Hi First I'd follow Martins's suggestion (as always) regarding the calculations. Do you really need (for example) 123.xyz if 123.x could do instead? Reducing these times will result in significant savings. Increase comms speeds to all sensors / modules to maximum that allows reliable communications ...

Re: PIC18F25K22 UART ERROR

Hi

Very helpful info.

I think the only sensor that used floating point was the 6050 and it may be possible to use integers, or at least limit the decimal places for those readings.

Even with the PIC running a lot slower than the ESP, the mS results do at first look seem quite odd.

Regards

Re: PIC18F25K22 UART ERROR

Hi Floating point calculations can be quite resource heavy on an 8-bit. The 25K22 has an internal oscillator that runs at 16MHz and you can also use the 4 x PLL to up the speed to 64MHz, thereby improving speed by a factor of four. The peripherals will still take time to obtain data, but at least ca...

Re: PIC18F25K22 UART ERROR

Hi

I agree that something doesn't seem right as those times seem far too long. When I get a chance I'll run a couple of tests too.

Re: PIC18F25K22 UART ERROR

Hi Good in getting the esp "sends" down. That could probably be improved further by looking for a response (any, with a timeout) instead of the delay. I'm really surprised at how long the calculations are taking though. I've very limited access to things just now but when I get a chance I'll try a c...

Re: Pico Toolchain

Hi

That's my take too, and illustrates that on a clean W11 install, if you follow the guides exactly then they work.

Re: PIC18F25K22 UART ERROR

Hi No real access to hardware just now so I can't test and sorry to be brief. In the transmitter we have two delays. The first was in the Main loop and was specifically to control how many times per second / minute / whatever the loop ran. I think you have adjusted that and from the above you get a ...

Re: Pico Toolchain

Hi

Followed the guide and also installed latest git as part of the Pico install. Accepted everything not specifically told to change / ensure.

Didn't have access to any hardware but successfully compiled to hex.
