Zemuss,

I used ethernet all the time.  It provides longer distances and probably faster speeds.  I have used

ethernet in an industrial environment with excelent results.

Chuckles,

I have used this

which resembles a PLC form factor.  You can buy it from straitway.com.mx....they

already have a board where you can mount your Netduino.  That board includes

the terminal screws to receive external signals.  That board already is perforated.

let me know if I can help.

Hi there,

I just bought some Netduino Plus 2, firmware 4.2, works well with VS2010.

Question:  what is wrong with this

AnalogInput input = new AnalogInput(AnalogChannels.ANALOG_PIN_A0)

I am trying to read a voltage in the range 0-3.3VDC at A0...

The VS2010 compiler says:

Error    2    The best overloaded method match for 'SecretLabs.NETMF.Hardware.AnalogInput.AnalogInput(Microsoft.SPOT.Hardware.Cpu.Pin)' has some invalid arguments    C:\Users\caestradalaptop\Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\ceCSharpNetduinoPlus2\ceCSharpNetduinoPlus2\Program.cs    23    21    ceCSharpNetduinoPlus2

Also, it is supposed I can jump the pin 3V3 to A0 and see 4095 counts, right?
 

Suggestions?  Thanks in advance!

Hi everybody,

When I try to upgrade the firmware, the Netduino Plus2 I have just does:

1. When connect USB, makes the typical sound of Not known artifact

1b.  I cannot see anything listed in NedtuinoUpdate

2. The DFU already installed

3. The Netduino Plus 2 has both white and blue leds ON

4. When I detach and attach againg, the Netduino Plus 2 works fine (with version 4.2)

Suggestions?

I have previous version 4.2 and seems to work great with VS2010.  But I am having analog pins problems and I am not sure if related to firmware or not...

Suggetions?  Thanks

Chris,

Thanks for addressing this.

Nothing shows up in MFDeploy and DFUSE.  When I connect the usb while pressing the button, the PC makes the typical sound that drivers are not installed for this board-mode and Win7 does not recognize the board (in bootloader mode).

However, when I connect usb in normal fashion, it works great (version 4.2 and VS2010), pretty stable, no issues.

Perhaps I used wrong link to get proper ST DFU tools...where are the latest.

Suggestions?

Thanks!!

Chris,

Same result, installed and restarted windows7.  What am I doing wrong?

Ok, disconnect the board.  Press button and keep it pressed while connecting USB to computer.  Run NetduinoUpdate...but no activity, just the OS sound like we have a new board connected but not knowing what to do...

I have the REV A-....both, white and blue are ON, is bootloader mode, right?

Chris,

I can see the board with MFDeploy.  The board is NOT in bootloader mode.  The USB drivers work very well.

I can remember Netduino Plus was upgraded using a procedure thru MFDeploy...can I use that procedure with new firmware files and this new board?

Thanks Chris, I will try that and I will let you know...thanks again

Chris,

Already found the problem: BootLoader USB Driver was not updated, was installed but not updated on my computer.  I just click to update using the ST Microeletronics Directory under C:Applications and ready.

This new version do not work with VS2010 but VS2012...

Thanks for the great support and all the suggestions...
