I have been playing around with a Netduino 2 for the past few days without encountering any problems, until I tried PWM.

 

In  VS C# 2010 Express, I type:   PWM pwm = new PWM(Pins.GPIO_PIN_D5); and get this error :

'Microsoft.SPOT.Hardware.PWM' does not contain a constructor that takes 1 argument"

 

So I tried VS Visual Basic 2010 Express, and typed:  Dim led1 As PWM = New PWM(Pins.GPIO_PIN_D5)

and get this error: Overload resolution failed because no accessible 'New' accepts this number of arguments.

 

In all the examples I've seen, New PWM only takes one argument - the GPIO pin.  Does any one know what I am missing or what's going on here?

I've been wondering that myself, so I did some searching and dug up this post reply:

I hope you've figured it out by now, but here's a code to make it work:

PWM pwmPin = new PWM(PWMChannels.PWM_PIN_D6, 1000,.5,false); //2nd value is frequency in Hz(I suppose) and 3rd is Duty Cycle from 0.0 to 1.0pwmPin.Start();
