Re: text from the keyboard
Hi Donald,
I have created a flowchart which will allow you to add letters A to Z, add a space and delete any entered letters: At the moment you need to press a key up to 3 times (just like on phones) then press Hash to enter.
For improved speed it may be better to have a predetermined time elapse then key is auto entered. Then you will not need to press # to enter.
I did not have much time tonight so did not do the time out method.
If you would like to use the timer method, I will see if I can get the chance to do that tomorrow (Wednesday)

Hi Martin,
It is very good, but if it can use the delay, it is welcome.
And there is a little problem, use next row.
Thanks very much!

Hi donald,
I have added the following:
timer, extra line, Numbers 0 to 9 and When you press space button an underscore briefly appears in the place a char will appear when keypad is next pressed.
I have done this so if using a few spaces you will not loose position of where next char will appear.
Since next line will automatically be used when top row is filled, the flowchart is more complex since I have left in the char delete button.
This has not been tested on hardware, so I'm not sure if auto entry has ideal timeout or not.
If you want more or less time, I can sort that easily
Currently it's set for 1.2 seconds

Hello all,
Sir Martin, written texts can be saved? You can transfer in a micro SD
and then updated?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Donald,
I have not got Micro SD Eblock, So I can't create a flowchart, as no means of testing it works.
So what I have done is altered flow chart so the letters/numbers are stored in a string variable called Letter_Storage as well as displayed on LCD. Delete function also deletes char from Letter_Storage variable as well.

Just had a thought.
Micro SD (FAT Component) will not be enabled with free version of Flowcode V5
So you will need to upgrade to Professional for that component to work.
