Internetboard EB-023 doesn't match with ecio base board?

[glorieux]

We try to connect the ecio baseboard (EB-061-00-2), together with the internetboard (EB-023) with PIC18F4455. These baseboards are also used by our students.

In Flowcodev3 we had some problems, and it did'nt work. See also http://www.matrixmultimedia.com/mmforum ... f=2&t=6299
(we tried already to place the internetboard upon port B instead of port C, worked with the patch-jumper to C,..)
We also tried directly to pc by crossed UTP cable (and with straight cable and switch) to make the connection between the pc and the EB-internetboard

We tried also the demoversion of FC4, but it seems that this one does'nt support the internet board...

***My questions:
1. Is there an 'official' testfile who can bring together these components? where to find?
2. Or is it possible to check my example in attatchment? (internetboard on B and LCD on port D)
3. Is it true that the IP adres of the internet bord (here 192.168.0.250) has to take the same last byte to the 0-8-220-0-0-250 instead of the suggested 0-8-220-0-0-0 of my card? (How we can make this real mac-adres to show up from the card?)


If we try to ping, ore use telnet, we get the following result: (partly translated from dutch)
We try to connect from pc 192.168.0.170 to the internet board with 192.168.0.250

Thanks a lot!

I'm a little confused. Do you have a pro or educational version of Flowcode V4? The file you have sent is a V4 file, yet you write about V3 or the demo version of V4.

You need to follow the instructions in that topic you linked to, specifically those here:

Hello

To get the ECIO40 working with the TCP/IP E-Block EB023 you will need to connect the E-Block to PortB and then setup the patch system as follows.

Jumper Setting C

Wire the following connections using the turned pin sockets on the E-Block.
SDA wired to Bit 0
SCK wired to Bit 1
/INT wired to Bit 2

Also in the Webserver properties you must change I2C interrupt from 0 to 2.

Hope this helps.

If you are using V3, you also need to use the "#define TMR0 TMR0L" fix.

There is no specific example, but if you have a program that is known to work with the '877a, then it should work with the ECIO40 (with the changes to the connections above).

The IP address and MAC address are totally independent. You can use any number for the MAC address, but it needs to be unique within your network. However, if you intend to make a commercial product I think you will need to apply for a unique MAC address (or set of addresses).

Hey Steve we understand your confusion.
At school we work with official FC3 (educational version v3.4.7.48), the examples of FC4 are given by our mentor who works with FC4. Thanks for feedback!
in the future, We have intention to pass over to FC5, but now it's on to me to get these things work with FC3 or 'demo'FC4.

***Question, is this 'demoFC4' right to use as the following code is given when uploading? We just noticed while uploading: 'Warning unreferenced functions removed', and this licence of FlowCode does not produce code for this component':
Is there a 'temporarily' working demoFC4 possibility (with working communication blocks)for schools?


Thanks.
Geert

Hi Geert,

You can use the free/demo version of Flowcode V4 for any non-commercial activity. But it has some limitations, including that it will not produce any code for the components (except for the few 'common' components such as LCD and switch).

I think you will need to use the V3 for TCP/IP work.

[glorieux]

Thanks Steve, but can you tell me where just this "#define TMR0 TMR0L" in FC3 has to be placed?
Is this in FC3 in Chip/ Showing C ? And where just in the code we have to place it?
Thanks
Geert

[Benj]

Hello Geert,

In v3 click on Edit -> Supplementary code and add the code to the definitions window.

[glorieux]

Thanks Ben and Steve,
We -finally- get it to work. Just on time to help my students
