I am trying to set up the SPI communication between NB Mod 5213 and AD-5932 chip. However, there is something wrong that I couldn't figure it out. Basically I tried to send 6 word (each word is 16 bit) from Mod 5213 to the Ad-5932. CS pin idles high and drops to low when the data is being transmitte...

Thanks for the suggestions, Dave. I already declared my variables to be volatile. But instead of one 32 bit variable "volatile DWORD var", I have an array of 10 "volatile DWORD var[10]". Thanks, Larry, for offering suggestions to me one more time. To your question that I don't us...

Hi, RidgeGlider. Thanks for your suggestion. It is the right way to go. However, there are also many other functions involved which requires untrivial work to modify. Do you think it is OK for my implementation to use an interrupt for PWM generation and a serial task for receiving? The serial task o...

I am wondering if I need to use semaphore or mutex for variables used in multiple tasks. My application is to receive data from serial (serial receive task) and then generate a PWM signal using DMA timer (level 6 DMA interrupt for 1-2ms pulse width). However, I saw glitches once or twice in 15 min a...

Hi, Larry. Thanks for your prompt response and your suggestion. I really appreciate that. I followed your advice to use the original system clock instead dividing by 16. Then the problem was gone for at least the two 10 minutes test I did. I need to do more tests to get a confirmation on that. Hopef...

I am having problems with my DMA timer on my Netburner Mod5213. The timer glitches once a while when I used it to output PWM signal. The DMA3 is set to generate a 50Hz PWM signal. However, I got servo glitches after about 5 min after bootup. I used Larry's StopWatch (DMA0) to measure the time betwee...

Thanks, tod. That is a good point. I will check it out.
I guess it is time to start programming in C++ for Nburner.

Thanks, Forrest and rnixon.

That solved the problem. Everything is working fine after I upgraded Java. It is just a old laptop.

My java is JAVA2 Runtime environment SE v1.4.2
Netburner is Release24_RC2.
I tried to install Eclipse

Hi, I am having problems installing NBEclipse. Looks like I am missing something for my installation. When I start a new project, I just can't find the C/C++ or netburner project in my wizard.

Here is a screen shot. Anybody know what is going on there?
