i am trying to streamline some of my projects and hence to simulate them with simulide first instead of breadboarding.
For one project i would like to simulate an attiny13(a), reading an LDR and blinking a LED. The LED-Part works.
Q1: For the LDR-Part i had a software serial solution on the real hardware. This won't work with simulide, wouldn't it? My first attempt to open the serial monitor led to a crash of the simulide-program. Maybe someone knows a trick.
Q2: With respect to the LDR: it gave me readings of 255 which means 100% @5Volts in the simulation. Could someone give me a hint how to change the values?
Q3: In the same program of the microcontroller i am working with the watchdog - this seems not to work as well. Or do i have to tweak some Settings?
As part of the same project, but useful for some further things i had originally a radio transmitting solution by "misusing" the softwareserial. I wanted to try some kind of manchester encoding and refine the solution.
Q4: Do I have any chances in building a circuit with two microcontroller one as sender and one as receiver? Did not try it, but thought i ask in advance before wasting time :)
Thank you for your interest,
Boris
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
The creator is very friendly and helpful so he will probably respond.
Give him time though, I am not sure of your location but he is in Brazil, so time zones will effect response time.

That is a good advice. Didn't realize there is a forum - my bad. :(
I guess that the software is a hobby project and i am not expect anyone to answer in realtime :)
As far as i get to know i am around 5 hours ahead (Germany - Brazil).

I suggest you ask on the SimulIDE forum.
The creator is very friendly and helpful so he will probably respond.

Thank you for the link @caroper - will first have a look at the resources - maybe some questions are asked before (like in the song 905 from the who).
