Hello All. I am working on a sorting project and need some help with the code. I am trying to scan upc barcodes in to a program and have it time from when i scan and trigger a solenoid at a certain time depending on which upc is scanned. I wanted to hook the solenoid up to a trigger that when hit will drop a shoot on a conveyor belt. I am thinking of doing this through a hub/switch with multiple n+2s or maybe with 595 chips. If anyone is interested in helping me with this project or doing the code for me i'd appreciate it and am willing to pay. 

Thanks,

-Justin

Hello All,

I'm fairly new to netduino and fairly new to C# as well. I am trying to create a sorting project. I want to hook up netduino to a relay board or relay shield that is connected to a bunch of solenoids. I want the solenoids to push pallets that dump the product i'm sorting into shoots that drop the product into boxes. I am doing it all based off time. I am assigning a list of SKUs to an array and having an input box determine what solenoid to activate when i scan the upc in based off the array position of the SKU. I've got some of the code for my project done but still need to hook up the solenoids and relays. My question is can i run this from my computer and have it work with netduino in real time without building or deploying anything to netduino? My fear is if i have to deploy it after every SKU i scan the timing would be off. Or if i was using multiple netduinos for this project that it would be a nightmare to setup and deploy and build the sorting project before each sort. 

Thanks,
