Matrix user forums

I have one by Ika logic.
The current version is an upgrade to mine, costs about £60.
In the uk hobbytronics.co.uk supply it

I also have the usbee that came from matrix several years ago

although not as cheep

Ouch

I can recommend them though, good quality, and do stand up to a bit of (careful) DE soldering too.

Thanks Ben

Those boards are very useful, I use the 1/4 size a lot as well, although they are a bit expensive compared to veroboard they are very high quality.

Its been a while since I've had time to do anything with flowcode or contribute to the forums. This is my latest project. Hopefully will now be able to get back to being a regular again. Introduction: This project is a real time clock, which the setup and operation is controlled from a standard RC5 ...

Hi
Sorry only just spotted your post, not getting much time on the forums or on flowcode at the moment. Will give it a try for you

Hi Claude

I've just tried a simple flowchart for the DS1307 under V7.3 and it seems to work here.

I'm still only getting 0.0000 for all readings. Either the component still has a bug or I'm doing something silly with my flow chart

I hope to find the time this weekend to have an in depth look at your posts and try them again.
I've got all 3 of the devices you have used so should be able to get somewhere.

Hi Viki Thanks for the recent posts I have had a quick look at your component, (Not had time recently to sit down and have a in-depth look at this or to make replays.) But not been able to get it to work correctly so far. Will try the 4550 flowchart as soon as I get chance. I am keen to get the BME ...

Hi Slobodan

You will have to wait till Matrix open again on Monday, they will soon sort out you problem.
PM your problem and details to David

Please just remember don't post you licence key or login details on the forums.

Hi

Here are a couple of my projects from previous posts using the EB022

You re welcome to use them as you wish.

Hi Ben

That going to be interesting, the sensor looks like the one I've bought to use with the Arduino, though mine was branded Adafruit.

I have just sourced a remote control for these type of modules that works on 433 MHz This means it is totally legal to us in the UK. DSC01062b.JPG Remote-Test-Switch.fcfx Using the above simple test program, the output stays high while the keypad is pressed. The remote and a 4 channel receiver costs...

Hi Several users have produced really useful components (Thanks) for FC over the last few years and posted them on the forums. Why not have a section on the forums specifically for user components. This would make it easier to re-download a component or to check if the author has updated it. It can ...

Hi Dave
That's a great document.

Like Steve I've tried component creation and not had much success either.

I have those RF components myself, and have used them by programming them "the hard way", now I'll try working through your tutorial and see what happens.

Thanks again.

I've got the chipkit board myself.(though not got round to anything serious with it yet) I agree with Qmesar , Its a nice little board and having the compatibility with Arduino shields makes it very versatile. Plus its reasonably priced. I think the main problem with the 32 bit devices is they are a...

I Believe connection points should be left in place. Not only users use them for error trapping, but what about loading existing flowchart that already have connection points? Its better to have and not use just in case, then need but not got! Martin good point Martin, Anyone wanting to change exis...

Hi Ive have always been taught when learning to program in both Basic and C to avoid the dreaded GoTo statement. This I agree with and generally think is a good idea. However I have used the connection points in flowcode on occasions. But if students are taught good programming they can learn to gen...

Hi Matt The transmitter for the MSF signal was relocated from Rugby to Cumbria several years ago. http://www.npl.co.uk/science-technology/time-frequency/products-and-services/time/msf-radio-time-signal The alternative is the German DCF transmitter, it needs a different receiver hardware, but they bo...

Hi Jorgen I've got a few ideas for it too, but I'm sure Ben will get it sorted eventually. This component is only one of many things he will be working on, and as much I have a need for it, I appreciate it may not be something that a large amount of users will need, compared to other parts of Flowco...

Hi Chris Sorry only just spotted your post. If I remember I have a small (different) transmit delay in each of the sensors to stop data transmit clashes. This means there is less chance of both being received at the exact same time. I didn't try it running the program without a delay so without test...

Hi Loaded the new version of the component When I try to run my program (or Jorgens) I get http://www.matrixtsl.com Errors when generating C source code: BME280 V1.c : 1 : error : Too many arguments: PressureSensor_BME280::ReadTemperatureFloat BME280 V1.c : 1307 : error : Too many arguments: Pressur...

Hi Jorgen You seem to be getting similar results to me. My post above was where I got confused by the R/W bit. I have both an Adafruit board and a Sparkfun Board The Sparkfun has separate I2C and SPI connections, where as the Adafruit share the pins. Adafruit has SCK = I2C Clock SDI = I2C Data I hav...

Hi Ben

The Adafruit board has a default Ic2 Address of 0x77, (0r 0x76 if SDO is connected to GND)

Can these address be added to the component please, as It currently on allows 0xEE or 0xEC

Thanks

The board is on its way, so should be here Fri or Sat. I've knocked up a quick FC program to read the 3 values in a loop and display them on the EB005 LCD Board

Will post my findings once tested.
