USB Data Logger

Post by keejay »

Hi guys,

I have designed a small data logger that works great with an SD card. I was thinking that it might be quite nice if I could log the data directly to a USB memory stick. Has anyone tried this? Any ideas? It it possible with FC6?

Thanks

Hello,

Possible yes but there is no component to do this currently.

First things first you need a MCU with USB Host (OTG) capabilities.

I hope to be able to update the USB stack for Flowcode 7 to allow for things like this but this has not gone in yet.

Hi Keejay,
I currently use Vdrive2 for logging directly on to a usb memory stick.
I have mentioned it in this thread.
I prefer Vdrive2 to the latest Vdrive3

Thanks for the replies. I'll check out the Vdrive2. If there is no component, Benj, how would one go about doing this? Any pointers or would it be better to wait for FC7?
