F1 Evaluation Platform - Code port to GCB

[Anobium]

See http://youtu.be/deyMvU0e8_Y and http://youtu.be/rd9eGH-q4WI for a demonstration of the port.

The most complete demonstration can be seen at http://youtu.be/pUtJ2CVh3X0

I have added more functionality than the original code. The F1 Evaluation Platform now supports:

LCD support for
1. Real time clock
2. Setting of Real time clock
3. Temperature with max and min tracking and support for negative temperatures
4. Reset of temperature max and min
5. Pot value

Output support for
1. LED
2. Serial console

Input support for
1. 24 hr clock
2. Button switch with four states
3. I2C Device MCP9800 for temperature
4. Pot

The code is available, please see the links below.

I popped the platform in the freezer... the code did not support negative temperatures (the Microchip version did not...). I have updated the code and the LCD to display negative temps (with support for MAX and MIN temps).

Works ok... I cant wait for winter!

[Anobium]

The code at the v9_10.5 release.

Contains all the code - the baseline code, the input devices, output devices, serial output/terminal output.

I have this in SVN for anyone that needs the complete package or I can post segments for specific needs.

I tried several times but can not connect, it lacks something
What kind of problem is in the code? can you be more detailed?

Thanks again, Marco

[Anobium]

Please retry. I failed to give you the port address for the FTP site. ftp://tmail.mooo.com:8021/gcb/contributions/F1%20Eval%20Platform/Hex/

Does anyone know how to upload more than one attachment?

The error is the 'min'imum temp value is getting corrupted. Nothing serious but an odd error - I am looking into error.

[Marcoos]

Ok this is ok thanks

[Anobium]

I now have version that is stable with respect the min temp error. if you want it, let me know and and I will post a new version.

Did you get the 'min' temp error? it gets set to 1.1. Which is not a valid temp.

[Marcoos]

yes thank you, if you put it in the link I discharge, I have not tried the previous version, I wanted to test it over the weekend

[Anobium]

I have posted a version with a workaround for the current issue. This is not a fix, just a workaround.

See version F1 Evaluation Platform_00980.hex in the zip file.

[Anobium]

I have posted a complete working version.

I try to enter as a guest but it gives me an error and won't let me in.
Is there another way to get the files?

[Anobium]

See https://sourceforge.net/p/gcbasic/discussion/629990/thread/4bbff3ec/#ab49, I just reposted the id/psswrd.

Also, the most complete demonstration can be seen at http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=pUtJ2CVh3X0 This demo still does not show the motor control via PWM and a few other minor functions.

Enjoy.
