Even if the data is in in that format, is the a conversion out there?

Because it's kind of useless to read sms that are unreadable to human.

I am sure someone out there would having this kind of this issue?

Hi,

I am using this code

http://netduino2seedgsm.codeplex.com/

and this hardware

http://www.seeedstud...l?cPath=132_134

Managed to send sms ok however reading all SMS have been no joy.

Just wondering y whthe visual studio output produces funny characters: eg A�i5G�A,j etc etc even thought the code is converted byte[] from utf8 string.

private static string GetUTF8StringFrombytes(byte[] byteVal)
{
byte[] btOne = new byte[1];
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder("");
char uniChar;
for (int i = 0; i < byteVal.Length; i++)
{
btOne[0] = byteVal[i];
if (btOne[0] > 127)
{
uniChar = Convert.ToChar(btOne[0]);
sb.Append(uniChar);
Debug.Print(uniChar.ToString());
}
else
{
sb.Append(new string(Encoding.UTF8.GetChars(btOne)));
Debug.Print(new string(Encoding.UTF8.GetChars(btOne)));
}
}
return sb.ToString();
}
}

This is a great example to learn from - the original author is very kind to post his projects.

My questions about this projects.

1. How do you actually debug the plugin projects? since the project methology is iplugable and all .be files are in SD card?

2. What's the best best way to transfer files/deploy files into SD Card? Currently, I just remove the card and place into a card reader - which is time consuming. Is this the only option?

Thanks in advance.

Hi All,

After doing some research for watering controlled system

1. netduino plus 2 - because I am familiar with .NET

2. solenoid valve http://www.alpha-cru...0386509971.html

3. 12V Relay Board

4. Breadboard

5. LED lights (indicator)

6. Wires/jumpers

Anything I need? What type of resisters do I need? Can you some of us kindly list out the items I've missed out?

To be franky, I just want to buy a kit - but there are none. I am just interested in programming side and that's all.

Thanks Ulrik, Sorry for a newbie question. I have zero knowledge in electronic So if the valve is 12v that means I need 12v relay board? Do you know anyone selling just a kit so all I do is put them together to archive this project. I am mostly interested in programming. Or do you know any website that list out exact items to buy for this type of project? Thanks again for your reply

HI All,

I am coming from a .net background so programming won't be hard.

I just got hooked into Netduino about 3 hours ago. Immediately, I just want to build a computerized controlled watering system (now) and control some lights (near future)

Can you please suggest me what's the relay module for Netdunio Plus 2? I saw there are a couple on eBay/Amazon and I am a bit confused and not sure if they are compitable, and what else do I need in order build this system?

I am starting with two empty hands, and the items I have in mind so far are

1. solenoid wavles, pipe, drippers

2. netduino plus 2

Thank you in advance
