#66129 SPI on VB?

Posted by Nevyn on 19 December 2016 - 09:44 PM

I'm not aware of any SPI examples in VB.  However, have you tried taking one of the C# examples and using one of the online convertors to translate the C# to VB?  I believe Telerik have a free online service.

#65304 Netduino Plus 2 Firmware v4.3.1

Posted by Nevyn on 05 July 2016 - 06:28 PM

In my experience, upgrading the firmware on the board tends to be the same for each board family and does not change between firmware versions.

#65192 ND3 cannot seem to create an interrupt handler

Posted by Nevyn on 14 June 2016 - 06:15 AM

I think you need you application to look something like this:

public static InterruptPort button = new InterruptPort(Pins.GPIO_PIN_D0, false, Port.ResistorMode.PullDown, Port.InterruptMode.InterruptEdgeLevelHigh);

public static void Main()
{
    button.OnInterrupt += Button_OnInterrupt;
}

private static void Button_OnInterrupt(uint data1, uint data2, DateTime time)
{
    throw new NotImplementedException();
}

The IDE generated the code for the interrupt and the attachment when I pressed the tab key following the +=.

#64813 Wi-Fi Shield for Netduino Plus 2

Posted by Nevyn on 27 January 2016 - 01:25 PM

Wouldn't that just be called a wireless router ?

 

A WiFi shield without the mod you are suggesting costs £78 in the UK but I can get a router for less than £20.

 

Sorry, but given the price of routers I can't see the point of this solution.

#64682 Deploy with custom software (without VS)

Posted by Nevyn on 28 December 2015 - 07:29 AM

After sleeping on this overnight I remembered that the Mono work is old and probably applies to the Atmel processors in the original Netduino boards and not the latest STM32 boards.

#64676 Forum was away from home for a while-- what happened?

Posted by Nevyn on 27 December 2015 - 05:38 AM

As far as source code for Netduino, the code is here: http://www.netduino.com/downloads/But yeah it would be cool if there was a github project that we could contribute to. Maybe there is one, but I did a quick search and did not find it.

Some of the code is available on GitHubbut I don't think (I'm not 100% sure) that all of the code for all platforms is is there.

#64531 I2C strange behavior

Posted by Nevyn on 18 November 2015 - 06:51 AM

If the data sheet says the peripheral address is 0x40 then shouldn't you be using this in the .NET code: 

0x40 << 1

The top 7 bits are used to hold the address of the peripheral, the bottom bit indicates if it is a read or write transaction.

#64513 I2C strange behavior

Posted by Nevyn on 15 November 2015 - 08:39 AM

Usual question with I2C - have you installed pull-up resistors if the board you are using does not already have them installed.

#64488 General support from Secret labs

I have gotten help from Nevyn and ShVerni.  They have been very helpful.

Thank you.

#64476 Minimum Vin Power

Posted by Nevyn on 10 November 2015 - 03:16 PM

I think you can power with 5V.

 

The barrel jack input is a minimum of 7.5V but the 5V header pin can take 5V.  You just need to make sure you get the regulation right.

#64377 More Digital I/O

Posted by Nevyn on 27 October 2015 - 06:56 AM

I am programming in vb.net.  Is it possible to use your driver without converting it?

 

I know you can do this with standard C# and VB.  I'd normally do something like:

  1. Create a new project in your VB solution with the C# code in it and compile the code to a DLL.
  2. Next make sure the C# code is CLS compliant.  I think there is an attribute for this.  Yes there is - add [assembly:CLSCompliant(true)] under your using statements.   You will get errors if the code is not compliant.
  3. Reference the DLL in your VB project.

BTW - if you really need to convert the code then Telerik have a free online converter.

#64171 Interrupts

Posted by Nevyn on 21 September 2015 - 05:25 PM

It would be less processor intensive to use a timer to do this along with an interrupt which triggers on either a rising or falling edge.

 

So set up a timer which triggers every 100ms.  This would just toggle the LED.

 

In your interrupt handler for J1pin4 you would check the edge of the interrupt.  If it was a falling edge then you would enable the timer and return from the interrupt handler.  If the interrupt was generated on a rising edge then you would turn the timer off.

 

Hope that makes sense,

Mark




#63967 I2C Bus Problem - Debugging

Posted by Nevyn on 24 August 2015 - 03:48 PM

The original Netduino did used to use the analog pins for I2C.

#63767 PWM

Posted by Nevyn on 04 August 2015 - 06:39 PM

Not really.

 

To be honest if I wanted a single pulse I'd probably look at a simple timer like the NE555 and see if I could trigger the start event from the Netduino.

 

Not sure if you could but that would be a starting point for me.

Mark




#63028 Converting libraries built for Ardiuno

Posted by Nevyn on 03 June 2015 - 03:10 AM

Nothing automated, just have to plough through the algorithm by hand.
