Re:FLEX Full PCB Programming with the USB

Hi! Sorry for the delay... I was out of town for a few days... We have some good news, in fact we have almost finished a plugin for MPLAB IDE which interfaces it with the USB port of the microcontroller. This will provide initial programming features. We are also working on a programming method whic...

Re:Welcome!

Although the setup we give on the Evidence web page has been tested and used on the Flex boards which hosts a dsPIC33FJ256MC710, there is no problem in generating code for other dsPIC as well. If you want to do that, I also would like to ask if you can share it so we can put it on the next distribut...

Re:Task Activations

Hi Mangesh, the FP kernel does not have a limit on pending activations... they are basically stored on an integer counter. the OSEK conformance classes have it... I tried to describe the thing in the document ee_porting_1_0_1.pdf , section 2.3.4... basically the ACTIVATION parameter for tasks is ign...

Re:Problem when building project

Hi, The only thing you need to build the application is the conf.oil and the code.c . The Debug directory is generated on the fly by the OIL compiler integrated into Eclipse (or in the standalone version). The difference in the size of the ELF depends on the compiler version... the code in there wil...

Re:pic30-elf-ld.exe Error

Hi Mangesh! For the heap, you can add the line LDFLAGS = \"--heap=4000\"; in the OS part of the OIL File. There is an example using the heap, which is the Scicos application template... just instantiate it in a new project, and you\'ll see the OIL file has the heap option... About the include dir......

Application notes page!

Dear all, just a short message to inform everybody we just added an \"Application Notes\" web page in the Community section. The idea is to have a place where to describe the various demos and applications using FLEX... I just added also the description of the ew2007 demo, which you can find under t...

Re:User Include Directory

Ok, just a quick reply to confirm that currently RT-Druid supports the inclusion of only one library (It was initially meant to support of course more than one, but somehow this missing feature slipped in the final version). We will modify it, and in the next version it will be possible to include m...

Re:User Include Directory

Hi Dave, We\'ll try to make the cfg.mk and libcfg.mk a little bit nicer in the next version (I have to think a little bit at how to simpify them leaving some freedom to the developer...) ... about the number of libraries... The original idea was: 1) you can include how many libraries you want 2) ......

Re:User Include Directory

Dear Dave, Thanks for inquiring on the Library topic. The library support has been introduced in the last version of RT-Druid and EE. I just attach an example, trying to clearify the manuals which probably are not clear enough (I\'ll update them including these notes) The idea we had is that third p...

Re:missing seperator during project build.

Exact :-) The problem is related to the fact that probably you have an expired license of the C30 student compiler. When the license is expired, the compiler prints out a message on standard output. Erika uses the option of the gcc compiler to generates the dependency files, which outputs to standar...

Re:Adding blocks

Hi Bram, here is a step by step guide on how to add a new block to the Scicos-Flex palette. They are just notes taken while I was doing it, and are a result of a few mail exchanges tonight with Roberto. Of course, all the thanks goes to Roberto Bucher for all this, not to me :-) The steps ----------...

Re:Adding blocks

Hi Bram, Ok... let\'s say there are two phases: the first one is to build a block in Scicos which can be used as a frequency counter. What we need to know in this phase is how many: - inputs ports - output ports - internal parameters you will need. I guess the following: - 0 input ports (the input c...

Hi! sorry for the late response... I was out of town from last wednesday... yes, it is possible to add new Scicos blocks... You can take as an examnple the existing blocks... Basically each block is made of two separate parts: - one part which is the Scicos implementation, that is the graphical desc...
