Its possible to conect 18f4550 to usb device?

[camolas]

Hi,

Can i conect a usb device like bt or gps antena direct to the pic usb ports?
If its were can i find a sample code?

Thanks all.

[Jerson]

No. Pic USB is slave. You need a USB master to do this.

[camolas]

Hi,

What is the usb master? where can i find info.

Thanks

Hi,

Ive a very big problem in me head im traying to conect my nokia 6230 to the pic (i have made some difrent cables that i saw in the net but non of them sims to work whit the pic or pc) i have a original nokia usb cable and works very well in the pc conecction but i need to coneccted to the pic, sow the idea was to try with a pic usb.
I read the info on the links that you post but can solve me problem im going crazy...

Can any one heelp me please?

Thanks

Jerson replied to you and the answer was straight no. Now, how on earth will you coannect a slave (your Nokia) to another slave (your PIC)? It can not be done, at least with this PIC. Have a look at the Microchip site. Recently new PIC's with hosting capabilities have appeared.

Hi,

I now sory about this but i was only complain of my self and try if any one was cain to help a noob on this matters
The new pic is a very good soluction to my problem but i do not have the programer for this kind of pic and the now how to mack this kind of code.

You could probably interface your mobile and a PIC with a chip solution in between such as USBwiz.

If you look at the Download list, you'll find a note on Nokia AT commands

Hi,

Thanks for caring about, i have see the ftdi chip to but im very new at all this and i do not now how to program this chips (because they sell it clean) and with what programer?

This USBwiz is a plug in and play good soluction but how do i conect it to the pic? i dont now how this work.Can you please explain me?
But it must be expensive

Thanks

[camolas]

What the experts think about this soluction for my problem? http://apple.clickandbuild.com/cnb/s...duct_info-null

Its easy to macke the code?

Thanks

[mister_e]

USBWiz can be use in SPI/I2C and with simple USART communication. Look at their FAQ

http://www.ghielectronics.com/faq.php?id=5

Pricing is fair enough ~20USD

You'll need to play a little bit with it... and read the whole set of PDF on their website... even if they're a bit badly explained (my personal opinion... i saw way better before... but worst as well) . The user manual is only 53 pages long.

VDIP2 or VDIP1 could probably be used for that. I don't know how easy/hard/doable this will be with Nokia phone though...

[camolas]

Ok if you say its because it is sow what is the exact device from them that i have to buy? (i want 2 usb conections)
Can you leter hellp me on the code and other staff?

Thanks

p.s. ypu are Cristiano Ronaldo from pics

[mister_e]

I tend to believe that USBWiz would be the right choice. I'll suggest you to contact them directly just to make sure it can handle 2 USB devices (as they seems to say on their website)

Vinculum (VDIP2) may work too, good part... it's a plug & play module, nothing to solder, already assembled... Even here, i would suggest you to contact them to make sure it can talk with the devices you have on hand.

I could help, but it's not going to be free... Seems i still have some e-mail problems, so PM me if you're interested.

Im not a rich men ok

[camolas]

Im waiting for the ftdi part, later i will get in touch about that for now can i wired in apic to pic serial connection de Tx (from pic transmiter) to de Rx (from pic receiver) direct or ned to put some resistor?

Thanks

[mister_e]

No real need for resistor for a PIC to PIC connection.

If you have any MAX232, MAX233, you could also try a PIC to PC connection. Not easier, but probably better for a first experimentation.

[camolas]

Hi Mister,

I have done the pic/pc conection alredy and works fine now im going to try pic/pic.

Thanks for the help

Hi,

Today i get the VDIP2, im reading a lot about this part and how to use it with a pic http://www.picbasic.co.uk/forum/show...highlight=vdip like to thank especially to BrianT for is great job my code is based on is.
Here is the data from VDIP2 http://www.vinculum.com/documents/da...s/DS_VDIP2.pdf
Im very new at all this and i have a lot of concerns on doing this (the part is not very cheap 32€ im afraid to kill her) as i read from BrianT e have to reflash it and i do not now if i need to do the same a not clear how to and what firmware to put.
Ftdi do not suport very well me...
I to do not now if i need to put some resistors in the pic vdip2 connections?

My 1st idea was and is to connect a pic to a nokia 6230 with is original usb data cable and sending sms and macking calls..
Here my traing code

DEFINE LOADER_USED 1

define OSC 20   

Include "modedefs.bas" ' Include serial mode
DEFINE HSER_RCSTA 90h ' Enable serial port & continuous receive
DEFINE HSER_TXSTA 24h ' Enable transmit, BRGH = 1
DEFINE HSER_SPBRG 129 ' 9600 Baud @ 20MHz, 0.16%
DEFINE HSER_CLROERR 1 ' Clear overflow automatically


'bits 2 & 3 temporarily inputs
TrisC.2=0 'active LOW reset line to VDIP2
TrisC.3=1 'Cts# Flow control to VDIP2
TrisC.4=1 'Rts# Flow controlto from VDIP2
TrisC.5=0 'Led to see if pic and code is ok blink 3 times
TrisC.6=0 'Rx VDIP2
TrisC.7=1 'Tx VDIP2

B0 var byte

High portb.5
Pause 500
Low portb.5
Pause 500
High portb.5
Pause 500
Low portb.5
Pause 500

Start:
High PortC.2 'active LOW so not reset
Low PortC.3 'pull VDIP2 pin CTS low 
Input PortC.2 'from VDIP2 pin RTS
High PortC.6 'condition serout pin to mark state
Pause 5
HSEROUT ["AT", 13]

HSEROUT ["ATD=+351xxxxx000;", 13]

STOP

end

Please comment anf if some one can hellp me...

Thanks for all and sory for this long letters and less good work post.

I've got a small question...
What good is a 10us delay between 2 9600 baud HSEROUT statements, when, at 9600 baud, a bit takes 104.1us?

Just like i said i just try to adapt the BrianT code for my needs and i do not have many experience with coding pics sow i will erasit now.
My bigests concerns at moment are if i need to reflash de VDIP2 and how and with what firm. if there is a need of puting some resistor... in pic-vdip2 connections and then the code..

Thanks for caring and i be grateful if you can hellp.
