I was learning AUTOCAD 2012 and switch to INVENTOR 2012, and doing what you need takes about 3 minutes ... you should look into it !I actually ended up writing a craplet to spit out some g code to do what I needed (drill a hole every .5 inches along the x and y axis in a 12"x12" board.

Do you need something more from meWe are going to make our initial board run of 9 boards.

#13468 How to pronounce "Netduino"?
Posted by Michel Trahan on 20 May 2011 - 02:03 AM in General Discussion
I do come from Montreal, province of Quebec, Canada, and a pure bastard (Irish, French, Indian(12th generation lol), and Iberville as a ancestor) (with this mixture bastard was the only appropriate one lol) and I'm proud to beWhere are you come from Michel?...French Canada?
You should see my smile
And I do pronounce doo-ee-no exactly like dwee-no lol it's just a question of speed ?

#13250 How to manual read/write internal flash?
Posted by Michel Trahan on 13 May 2011 - 08:27 PM in Netduino Plus 2 (and Netduino Plus 1)
Yes, you'll have 4KB or more of storage space to store data. It only has 10,000 rewrite cycles for flash rewrites...so you won't want to rewrite it frequently...but it'll be awesome for configuration data.
Quite ! specially for very small remote sensors using the mini ! Configuration yes, daily values ... not really since 10,000 cycles (about 27 years if one per day)
And of course, Netduino Plus has MicroSD support...so you can store data there easily too.
Was thinking of the mini or normal ones

No thanks needed, I'm much of a newbie too so ... just saw the diagram and got shivers ... lolThanks Michel for the heads-up.

#13233 How to manual read/write internal flash?
Posted by Michel Trahan on 13 May 2011 - 02:42 PM in Netduino Plus 2 (and Netduino Plus 1)
Just to see that I understand : lets say you have a normal netduino with XBee but no SD card, you could send info to the netduino that would persist even after power recycling (like encryption key or remote ip address of neighbor sensor or ...) ? That could be interesting.NET MF 4.2 (beta coming by summer) includes a new "simple storage" mechanism for storing data on-chip. We'll be embracing this in the Netduino 4.2 firmware to enable you to read/write data from your Netduino app as well.
#13204 Analog input varying too much on temp sensor (LM335A)
Posted by Michel Trahan on 13 May 2011 - 12:24 AM in General Discussion
I have been trying to get stable data from a LM335A Temperature sensor and I do get a variation of 3 to 4 out of 1023. You say this is normal ? When I look at the oscilloscope data, it is quite stable (better using 10 pF capacitor) but still a variance of 3 to 4 ... you say this is normal ? The variation on the oscilloscope is does not even equate 2 out of 1023 so why more variance ?Please note that the analog-digital converter on the Netduino is 10-bit, but it is not uncommon to lose 1- or 2-bits of accuracy with integrated microcontroller ADCs (for a variance of 2-4 on the 0-1023 scale).
A variance of 3 would make sense since the LM335A Temperature sensor is 1C accuracy which equates to 3 out of 1023, therefore a variance of 3 would be exactly the accuracy of the sensor. Am I making sense here ? But the oscilloscope seems to be more stable than what the Analog pin gives out ... why would that be ? The voltage to be read is more stable than the values obtained by the analog pin reading ... why ?
I use 3.3V with a 300 Ohm resistor and a 10 pF capacitor.
I did see that I have 3.250 instead of 3.3 when I put the oscilloscope on the power thread on the breadboard ... why I do not know ... shouldn't be 3.3 ? (was using USB power)

Can you point at code 'cause I would like to know how to do just that Please ? I know, off topic since mainly phone Wifi coding ... but a link would be very much appreciatedYou can already use your Windows Phone to control a Netduino Plus-based accessory via WiFi.

This one ?Several people have mentioned using a "hold button down" technique to unfreeze MFDeploy.
