Frickr

ok thank you works great now!

Managed to get the Blinky example working after some jiggery pokery with the project references

 

Regards,

what references did you need to change to get this working? i added the new sheildbase.dll and i dont see the ONBOARD_LED.

Hi Frickr, Did you change your deployment target from "NetduinoGo" to "Netduino"? We needed to make the name change to enable some of the new and future scenarios for Netduino Go. The new Netduino Go application templates will all use the new name by default. Chris

yes i did change it, and that was my problem. it still comes up as NetduinoGo_netduino but everything functions as it should as far as i can tell.

i think im getting the same error on mine. except i get an error saying "Error 2 Device not found or cannot be opened - USB:NetduinoGo"

 edit: ok i think i see what im doing wrong here, i just need to read a little more closely. ill report back on if i solved my own issues.  

the alarm state2 in the flush sequence fails to activate, it goes right though the flush sequence loop and skips right over the alarm sequence. it seems like theres an issue with the layering and how each line is exicuted.

i rewrote alot of the code last night and added a few more things. now i have a new set of problems, first - the run cycle works fine and as it should, the alarm turns on as expected, and the reset button stops the alarm, but then the code continues to the flush cycle instead of shutting down.

when it gets to the flush cycle, and i activate the switch for the alarm state, it now goes into the alarm loop, and gets stuck there. the reset button wont break it out of the loop and it keeps the loop active even though the alarm switch is back to a normal state.

also im trying to add a manual and an auto sequence to the code. but when i enter the manual, it gets stuck in the loop even though i change the state of the while loop by flipping the switch to the auto side.

my next big move is to add some timing functions to the code where after 8 hours of time in "run" it will start the flush sequence, then go back to the run sequence. but i still have alot more reading to do on that. 

i feel like im just having issues with the order of operation. i may record a video of my problem later on this afternoon if it would be at all helpful.

Thank you guys so much for helping me out with this, im looking forward to learning alot from this community.

heres my new revised code
