Need some advice,,,,,help

Post by ilusaud »

Hi everybody, I'm newbie in using flowcode and e-blocks. i want to build one prototype in which two loadcell are used to display the weight on lcd's.
So I went through the datasheets of both Sensor board block and the simple one terminal block. So can we connect two analog signal coming from INA125p to the terminal block directly instead of using sensor board just for cost cutting.
And one more thing as I said i want to build one prototype, so which edition can be optimal,,,flowcode home for pic or flowcode professional for pic.
Can anybody help me out in this regard.

Hi ilusaud,
I have moved your post to General Programming, which more suitable section since Tips section is for posting tips rather than asking for some.

My advice would be compare the features of both. In the Home version the advanced components functions are disabled and code size is limited to 4K.
So you won't be able to use: EEPROM, Comms like RS232, SPI, Wireless etc. So if you need more than 4K or any of the mention components then Professional is the only way.

Saying that, If you buy the home version then decide you need to upgrade to professional, then you will have not wasted a single penny.
You just pay the difference, and not the full professional price.

So financially its just as though you only bought the pro version to start with.. If that make any sense?

Please do not start a thread asking for help in the tips section. See:
