By the way, it's extremely gratifying to hear someone mention that they'll be building off of something I made! There's some features that I'd like to add to the WavPlayer, but are somewhat complicated to implement, so I haven't done them yet (working on more pressing matters). Let me know if there's any feature you need that's missing.

PS. I'm the guy who you hear in the example...

Dan,

Very nice work! Thank you for putting time into creating this demo; this is what sells the NB product/company, and this is why I have used it in so many projects. I have a many ideas on what I would like to try to implement into this project, but they may not be applicable to the greater audience. For instance:

1) Adding a TCP/IP socket server to remotely control the solution, similar to what is implemented on the serial port.
2) Adding a web page that allows the solution to be controlled via the browser.
3) Adding a recording capability.
4) Adding a scripting capability that plays all files under a specified directory.
5) Incorporating a LCD control interface, similar to the VersaModule.

I hear you on the more pressing matters, the only time that I get to play with my R&D activities is late in the evening. I'm usually so tired by then that I can barely get the computer turned on!

Maybe we should communicate through some of these ideas offline?

Mark

Interesting that you mention some of those... as #3 and #5 exist. You'll find the recording capability in the 'PeriodicAD' example. As for #5, take a look at the "Interactive Kiosk" article under the learn section of the website: http://www.netburner.com/learn/129-buil ... tive-kiosk

I think you can use the Telnet example to get #1 started. #2 is really just building the website and adding in the web callable functions. As for #4, I think you'll see a framework for doing this in the code for the kiosk demo.

With that, I think you've got all the pieces to put stuff together...

On a side note: If you are going to be using both the DAC and ADCs, you will need a low impedance source (i.e. buffer) for ADC channels 1 and 2 if using DAC0 and channels 5 and 6 if using DAC 1. This is due to an assumed errata currently being investigated on the MCF5441X; channels 0 and 4 appear to be unaffected.

Dan,

Thanks very much for these inputs. I am sure that I will come across many more hurdles as I attempt to pull all pieces together.
