Got mine working on my win7 laptop now thanks. I re copied all files from the FAQ topic, made sure my laptop had full access permission and reset to the default settings on the com port settings my uno was on and now all works.

Thanks guys

I'm having trouble programming on my laptop but works well on my desktop both using windows 7 and both set up as stated in previous posts

hope that's better? the flowcode works ok till i try and load to the uno

I'm stuck trying to get a servo to work on my uno, the error says if my program contains C. Works fine on the mega adk board but not the uno. I've tried all different pin outs with no joy

this is great, thank you.

Thanks daz, this is what I needed. I was looking at the data sheet before and could'nt find it. how do I identify them myself on other chips?

Does anyone know how to find out what pins on the arduino uno link up to each PWM on flowcde v5?

Check the avrdude has closed before running, ctrl alt del and check running programs, if avrdude is running, force close and try again.


Ben

It's this one, from the same site tho

Thanks, don't know why i didn't try this before.

Thanks spanish_dude, I've been doing some research on IR protocol and see there are many more than just the RC5. do you know if flowcode is capable of producing any other IR protocol like sony, samsung or NEC?

Ben

Hi, with the RC5 comand it states in the help part that it opperates on the 36khz, can I use other ir receivers like ones at 38khz or is it only for the 36khz ones?

Hi, i've tried to upgrade my avr v5 home to pro, when i 1st tried it gave me the discount but i didn't take into account the vat which bumped it up another £30, anyway now rasied the extra cash and it seem's i can't use my key to upgrade as it thinks i have one pending. "Upgraded Key Your license ke...

Thanks dazz, it's help like this is why I'm loving this forum!!

Have made an example for people who have the home /student version with no RGB complile feature using PWM. The chip is using an arduino mega adk but can be change for any chip. led pins are 13,11,4 (not sure why if anyone can tell me how to know what my PWM pins are on my arduino) again the delay ma...

Thanks Benj this is just what I needed. have bodged up a file to give a rainbow from the RGB led. I'm sure it's to long winded but it works to a sort. Delay macro is the speed of the glow and delay2 is the pause at the end of each colour. It starts blue to go to white but after the 1st round it all ...

Thanks guys, the forum is worth the money on it's own. the question about sending the flowcode for someone to compile was more out of interest in how much my home version is capable of more than anything else. This is something i will be investing in as the time saved using flowcode will pay for it ...

I've some questions, I have the home v5 and see that you can make up the flowcode file for all components but am I right thinking that I can only compile the basic components? If I was to write the flowcode file using componets from the pro version could I send it to someone with a pro licence to co...

Hi guys, anyone done a flowing RGB LED example? changing through all colours to white in a glowing type pattern? I've started one but didn't realise how long it would take to get a nice flowing one.

Works well with mega adk, thanks

Thank you thank you thank you!!!!! followed the link and instuctions and works a treat on my mega adk with flowcode v5 paid for home. now for some serious programming!!

Just remember to reload the bootloader if programmed by isp header before all this!!!!

Ben

after many many hours of no joy I've at last programmed my arduino mega adk. I have to use my avr dragon programmer connected to the arduino by the isp header. I compile my flowcode to hex (remembering were it saves it) then open atmel studio v6, go to tools/device programming then select my avr dra...

To DavidA
Thanks, I've got an avrdragon programmer somewhere in my house I've never used, this should work shouldn't it? never used it. I've only used avr and arduino's very little as I'm mainly a pic person.

Ben

Hi guys, come over from the other thread. still no joy with my mega adk, just get the time outs no matter how I push and release button (up all night doing many different ways!!). I tried moving the avrdude from the arduino but with still no joy. One thing I did find tho was when I cancelled the tim...

Hi daz, can't figure our how to start a new post in v5. the error is in the programming stage, just can't get flowcode to recognise the arduino. I'm using flowcode v5 and an arduino mega adk. I've tried many different settings now and at one point I managed to almost work but the avrdude kept timing...
