I am looking for some basic documentation on how to program the netduino in c#. For example, how does one output 5 volts from the "little power module" on the netduino. A simple connection diagram maybe and a couple lines of what programming objects and settings to use. I have found some great examples on http://www.netduino.com/projects/ but the only real example is with the onboard led. Which operating is fun but short lived. I am a newbie and am looking for a basic or introductory level of documentation. Not a manual for the onboard chip. If there is not any more out there. Does anyone know when it may be expected. Thanks, Albert F. Tenbusch Newbie

There's a 5v pin on the board, it's not a programmable pin, it just outputs 5v all the time. I agree on documentation and I know it's being worked on.

Welcome to the community.

There is little documentation as such available at the moment. There are a few people blogging about what they are doing and the project showcase is a good source of information. You can find some additional information in the Netduino Wiki. There is also a book which is available on Safari and will soon be available in paper form Getting Started with the Internet of Things - the latest update can be found here

If you are intereseted in some active members blogs then a few to look at are: Stefan, Fabien's Bit Bucket, Omar and I also have one which is sort of random in direction - depends upon what takes my fancy and you can find that here. I am sure there are more and omission is accidental

There is also an interesting site which is Arduino based but is still interesting bildr.org

Hope this is useful,
Mark
