Hi Jorgen,

Tried - and no problem programming the nano for me? It would be a bit of a disaster if there was an issue with it (and at least 3 beta-testers would need to be sat on the naughty step?)

Driver issue ? (I have cheapo nano boards with CH340 interface) - might be worth a restart too? I've ...

Hi
I just tried your flowchart in 8 then 7 and had the same issue, not sure why it does it however ,i found if i compile in 8 then for some reason it changes the default compiler settings in 7,

HI nasim
Config looks ok but i always enable power up timer, from your posts, the program works ok and displays ok when connected to your laptop, so i am assuming that you are programming chip which works fine in your test setup, but when placed in final pcb with a different display it doesnt work ...

Hi Bachman
Thanks for the info i will have a play later, One thing i would say is if anyone orders one, make sure you order an adaptor as in bachman's post.
I had one but i can't find it, so if you have a spare arduino laying around you can use that till you get an adaptor.

There are a couple of ...

HI Dave
Win 10 is a nasty beast when it decides to do it's own thing, one thing i did to stop a lot of it's weirdness was to disable most of the built in spyware, since then my pc has had a lot less hissy fits,
Go to options , select privacy and disable most of the items on the 13 pages of ...

We did try an online conference system with the VC's while we were beta testing v7. I'm not sure if we still have a license for the software but it is worth considering.

We will have a chat about this internally and see what we can come up with.

Please keep the idea's coming in and we will keep ...

if you dabble with arduino you can program from flowcode(most arduinos)

or if you have an arduino it can be used as an isp programmer

you will need to check the above ...

HI

another way for a single power supply is shown in the attached datasheet (fig 18)

call vout + V1
Call vout - V2
connect each to an adc input and use this calculation temp=(v1-V2)*100 deg c
Hopefully it will work

Will the V7 Beta package be standalone ? That is to say can it be removed without affecting V6 ?
We probably won't be releasing the BETA to the public. However, V7 will have a functional free ...
