#60771 Out of memory / timer issues
Posted by andrew6071 on 21 November 2014 - 12:03 AM in Netduino Mini
Are there any limitations to the number of timers / interrupts I can have on my mini ?
I've currently got 2 interrupt ports both calling the same event handler, together with a timer which work as expected. As soon as I add a second timer, and deploy to the mini it comes up with a memory error ???
I've added a call to debug.print(debug.gc(true)) in my first timer and it comes back with the figure 85000, what does that actually mean ??
Confused.

#60420 is my lcd bust
Posted by andrew6071 on 14 October 2014 - 07:25 PM in Netduino Mini
Yes, when an LCD normally powers up should all the blocks be turned on or off ?
If you turn the contrast up all the way will the blocks go black ?

#58491 Unable to deploy firmware to mini
Posted by andrew6071 on 31 May 2014 - 02:19 PM in Netduino Mini
Hi Chris,
Spot on worked straight away, and now the firmware is on there the mfdeploy 4.3 can see it
The thing that is different with the older version I just ping, but with the 4.3 version you have to connect first
Thanks again for your help Chris, I was pulling my hair out

#58476 Unable to deploy firmware to mini
Posted by andrew6071 on 29 May 2014 - 10:58 PM in Netduino Mini
This is really strange, just rebooted my pc, and the first time I ping the device I get the tinybooter response back, any further pings it comes up no connection
one thing I forgot to mention is i'm trying to use mfdeploy from 4.3
going to try downgrading, but it would be nice to have the 4.3 support as I've got VS 2013

#58475 Unable to deploy firmware to mini
Posted by andrew6071 on 29 May 2014 - 07:16 PM in Netduino Mini
Hi,
Hopefully someone will be able to help, I've tried everything to try and deploy the 4.2 update 1 firmware to my mini, but for some reason MFdeploy is unable to see my mini
I've reset the mini by apply 5v to the gold square
deployed the bootloader (tried both ttl and rs232)
I can see the bootloader is on the device because when I connect to the device via the relevant port I get the following
TinyBooter v4.2.0.0
NetduinoMini Build Date: Sep 19 2012 19:39:48
ARM Compiler version 410894
MSdbgV1 ÿ׶-@Ó
when I try and connect to the device with the mfdeploy it just comes up noconnection??
and I've tried both ttl and rs232
Please help

#58465 Netduino Mini Firmware v4.2.0 (Update 1)
Posted by andrew6071 on 28 May 2014 - 11:26 PM in Netduino Mini
Hi,
Ok, I've managed to flash the ttl tinybootloader but I can't ping the device
Does it matter that i'm powering the mini from the ttl board, is it worth using a proper 5v power supply instead ?
what happens if I use the rs232 bootloader instead ? Does it mean I can't use ttl to deploy anymore ? Can I switch between ttl and rs232 as I did in the first instance ?

#58394 Netduino Mini Firmware v4.2.0 (Update 1)
Posted by andrew6071 on 26 May 2014 - 12:18 AM in Netduino Mini
I suspect the problem is that I need to connect using the rs232 connection instead, not sure if my pc has a serial connection so I guess I need a usb to serial adaptor ??
I assume my break out board wont work ?

#58393 Netduino Mini Firmware v4.2.0 (Update 1)
Posted by andrew6071 on 26 May 2014 - 12:06 AM in Netduino Mini
Hi Chris,
I'm trying to upgrade my mini, to 4.2 but i'm not having much luck.
I've got a smartfun ft232r breakout board connected up to pins 11 and 12, but can't get sa-mba 2.12 patch 6 (<-- could the patch 6 bit be the problem) to recognise the device
All I get is communications error, I can see the breakout board sending data but not receiving anything.
Any help would be appreciated
oh and i'm running on a windows 8.1 64bit box

#58300 Beta: Visual Studio 2013 support
Posted by andrew6071 on 20 May 2014 - 10:46 PM in Visual Studio
Hi Chris,
I thought it was strange that there wasn't any console apps in the templates )
I've figured out what it was, I downloaded the 4.3.1 QFE1 file from the VS2012 post, and got them mixed up
I've just downloaded the experimental SDK again and noticed that the file names are different )
So can I use the PK from codeplex with the experimental sdk ?

#58265 Beta: Visual Studio 2013 support
Posted by andrew6071 on 19 May 2014 - 11:32 PM in Visual Studio
Hi Chris,
For some reason the project templates don't want to work for me, it comes up saying its unable to open the .csp file, I've checked and the zip's are in the project template directory
it comes up with an error "the project file ..\appdata\local\temp\.........some random folder...\temp\netduino***app.csproj" cannot be opened
there is a missing project subtype
subtype "some guid" is unsupported by this installation
Oh and I'm running vs2013 ultimate on win 8.1
