Hi all, I am getting something strange with trying to build a new and older project. When I first try to build I get this error. Internal Builder: Cannot run program "comphtml": Launching failed I then try to build again and I get this new error. Internal Builder: Cannot run program "...

Re: GSM modem for use with MOD DEV 70 board

Hi Bill, If you plan to connect via the modules RS232 interface then any one the so called GSM TERMINALS will do the job. Sparkfun have some modules available but they are expensive compared to a ready to use terminal such as those by Wavecom. If your interface is TTL then you will need to have eith...

Re: VT100 emulator

Thanks RG, unfortunatily I am looking for the other direction. I need something that can output VT100/ANSI type output so that I can test the decoder I have written on the Netburner. Putty does basic output.

I may end up writing something in VB as a quick test.

Cheers

Re: VT100 emulator

Thanks. This might have to do if I can't find anything else.

Ideally what I am looking for is an app that can output continuous data so that I can test the screen update.

Something that generates the cursor position, colour etc

VT100 emulator

Hi all, I am trying to locate a VT100/ANSI emulator to test some code I am developing on a Netburner to display on an LCD. I need something that can output via RS232 and over TCP/IP so that I can test the response of my code. Although I say emulator, this is the sending part I am looking for. I have...

Re: Using the CAN bus

One more CAN related question - I have a slave board which has CANL, CANH and CAN_SHLD connectors, and my NetBurner has CANL, CANH and GND connectors. Should I connect SHLD and GND together? Is it mandatory to use twisted pair? If my wires quite short (30 sm) could it be strait wires? Does NetBurne...

Re: I2C

Hi Josh, If you look in i2cmaster.h you will find the comments for i2cinit. The 0x16 for the MOD5234 I am using uses this value to set the bus to 100Kbits/s /*---------------------------------------------------------------------------- void I2CInit( BYTE freqdiv = 0x16 ); MCF5270, MCF5234 and MCF520...

Re: I2C

Hi Josh, If you keep it simple it is straight forward enough. Lack of C++ programming is not an issue as you can do all your coding in C on the Netburner. (sorry Tod) ;) This is the code I used to talk to a MAXIM battery monitor IC int ReadBattery() { int i2cStatus = 0; BYTE buf[10]; int Voltage, Cu...

Re: Using the CAN bus

Hi Oleg, I am not sure what protocol you are using this with but you don't need to send any RTR message unless the device on the bus requires this. Depending on the protocol used, most devices will simply send their data as required. For instance, the bus system I use here for power monitoring I hav...

Re: Netburner Carrier Board and RTS/CTS

Hi Tod, A terminator of ZERO is not one I have seen before. Normally it is carriage return or line feed if the message is ASCII. Glad you got it sorted in the end. By the way, a really useful PC app I have found for serial comms is a programme called Docklight from these guys: http://www.docklight.d...
