Hi all, I have a 12 volt sla battery and I would like to have a pot that when turned increases the voltage output between 0 and 12 and would also tell you what was being output on an lcd screen, I am not sure how to go about this so any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Stuart EDIT I could u...

Sorry Ben, we clashed there

Hi Scollins,

Does it give you a URL address to get it from the internet, if so can you post it on here and I will check it for you.

Thanks
Stuart

Hi Scollins22,

Can you give us a bit more information, what is the nature of the project that you are trying to achieve, by template I would imagine that you are looking for an example chart but for what ?

Thanks
Stuart

Hi George, as Ben says the power supply for these devices have to be bang on, if you click on the link that I sent you above, at the bottom of the page a reader has replied to the blog adding 2 x links that explain decoupling power supplies and how best to achieve it, well worth a read, it helped me...

Hi Griffo,

If you post your chart I think I will be able to help you because I think I know what you mean...

thanks
Stuart

Hi Aqa,

What version of Flowcode are you using ?, this chip compiles fine on my system.

thanks
Stuart

Hi George, Can you post your chart so that we can have a look what you are doing, I am playing with this module at the moment myself and I am finding them very unstable, you need filter caps as close to the board as possible, also you need a good 4.5 - 4.8 volt power supply that can handle a 2 amp s...

Hi Sanfr,

Have a look at this thread it may help you:

Hi Ben,

Thanks, I didn't think we had got that far for some reason.

Hi Martin,

Thanks for your updated chart, I will get a sim card and try it out tomorrow.

cheers
Stuart

Hi Martin,

I think I have done it ok, could you just check it for me please:
Thanks
Stuart

Hi Martin,

Thanks for the info, I will have a read now.

Hi, I want to put a result of text in a string and then I want to test it by saying: if message = "TheText" , but when I type this in the decision box it is blue, do i need to do it a different way ? Thanks Stuart Edit: A bit awkward to explain really, i want to test whether or not the text in the s...

Hi,

Now that I have the Ag102 Tester built I would like to build an Ag102 interpreter chart, I know this involves timers and interupts but I have no idea how to start to implement this, any advice or a heads up would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Stuart

Hi,

I checked all the macros and found the problem, I made this chart a long time ago.
EDIT: This is the tester in action:

Hi, After a few hardware problems (dodgy crystal) i built the tester circuit with the pic16f1937 but when I run it in hardware I can only select each mode once, ie if I press the button again the display tries to display something but stops when you stop pressing the button, could somebody have a qu...

Hi Jac, I tried the logical approach and went to the Microchip website but it is a terrible site to find anything, I tried products/programmers found the pickit3 but no sign of any software, anyway I downloaded the software from your link which incidentally crashes unless you run it as administrator...

Hi Jac, my next bekale starts, I have downloaded version 8.92 but my Pickit 3 is not in MPLAB mode, now you used to be able to download the standalone pickit3 software version PICkit 3.01 but now Microchip have taken it off and replaced with a Beta version that does not give you the option to revert...

Hi,

Could anyone tell me which is the best version of MPLAB is to use with windows 10 please.

Thanks
Stuart

Hi Steve,

I have just bought some of these so will check them out when they arrive.

Thanks
Stuart

Hi Steve,

I am not really looking for an out of the box solution, I am trying to come up with something myself using Flowcode and readily available cheap sensors, thanks anyway.

Stuart

Hi Ben, Thanks for the suggestions but I am not sure about doing something like that as another problem is that it is human drinking water and the sensors I have are stainless steel, I have found and ordered some PT100 stainless sensors from china so I will have a go with those when they come. Thank...

Hi,

If anyone knows of a different waterproof sensor that I can use I would be grateful as I need to get on with this project now.

Thanks
Stuart
