    Re: Ethernet with microcontrollers

    + that statement.

    Using one of the wifi modules amgen hints at is by far the easiest way to extend TCP/UDP support to a microcontroller.

    Considering the popularity of the modules, they are...

    Re: Parsing strings received serially.

    Indeed it does; somehow did not stumble across the 2nd thread; Heckler's response looks pretty much what I needed.

    Thanks for the pointer.

    Parsing strings received serially.

    Hi guys,

    I Havent used PBP for quite a while, and I'm afraid my memory is getting rusty.

    I need some help with string parsing.

    I get a stream of data over the serial port in the format...

    Help with scaling math..

    Hi guys,

    I have a home made capacitive sensor I intend to use to measure the depth of water with.

    Seems to work fine, but here is the issue.

    I am *not* interested in the absolute value of...
  5. Re: SEROUT,HSEROUT or DEBUG ? max 232 or no max232 ?

    Hi,

    Can I assume your wifi device is a variation of the ESP8266? If so, you would NOT require a MAX chip between the PIC and the Wifi module. Serout, Hserout should work, as also debug (the last...

    Re: Been away from PIC a long time

    Michael, to add to what Henrik said; the EPIC is a parallel port driven programmer; are you sure you still have a parallel port on your PC?!

    Your best bet would be to go in for a Pickit2 or...

    Re: Sharing my enthusiasm too!

    Right, that makes sense.

    If your project requires an ESP as well as Bluetooth, you might want to hold on the final design and migrate it to the expected-soon ESP32, which supports Wifi as well as...

    Dave,

    These past few months have kept me occupied with other things, so much so that I have been neglecting my hobbies. So, in the gaps in-between when I can sneak some time to indulge in them,...

    HTML design tool

    With the interest in ESP8266s, and the need to shove your data onto the interenet, I couldnt put off learning the basics of HTML any longer.

    Hi Heckler,

    I have a couple of ESP01s, ESP01s with flash upgraded to 4mb, ESP07s and a nodeMCU board in my arsenal.

    I understand ESP8266Basic works best with 4 mb. My main issues were to do...

    Re: Sharing my enthusiasm too!

    Dave, I should have been more explicit in describing option 4; I just use the Arduino IDE, and directly program the code into an ESP8266, there's no physical Arduino involved.

    As of Arduino IDE...

    Re: Hex values to decimal

    Of course you can do the conversions in Excel; but again, how would you get the data into Excel in the first place? And if you do that, (using something like StampDaq or some such), then why not let...

    Re: Hex values to decimal

    Output the data serially on the UART or bit bang it out of a pin?

    Why involve a pickit3 at all, for just reading the stored data?

    Re: RS232 with multiple slaves

    At 2400 baud, and one-way comms, I would even try without the RS-485/422 driver, simply modulating the signal with a transistor (or a pair, to retain the polarity) at the transmitter end, at perhaps...
  18. Re: 38Khz IR carrier - best way to turn it on and off

    Hi,

    Here's what had worked for me. Richard is right, you cant use HPWM for frequencies above 32.768khz.

    Set the registers as follows.

    TRISC.2 = 0 ' CCP1 (PortC.2 = Output)
    PR2 = 25 ...

    Dave, this is not an exposed LED; its one of those LED bulbs that directly replace an incandescent or CFL lamp in its mains holder.

    I second this; never had a problem. Been cascading chips like this since the good old 27XX EPROM days.
