ECIO Project USB Keyboard...

Hi guys,

I'm trying to write some code for a PIC which includes an ECIO to emulate a USB PC Keyboard - just certain scan codes and a buttons E-Block.

Just thought perhaps someone would maybe have something available already to make my life easier!

Worth a shot I guess...

Thanks in advance...

Re: USB Descriptor? ECIO 40

Thanks fella :-}

In Flowcode 4 is the Accelerometer component compatible with the 001Tech module?

USB Descriptor? ECIO 40

If I write something in Flowcode and program a ECIO the USB description on the PC is just that.

If I put USB into a PIC (which I haven't done yet) how do I make it say my text instead of Matrix?

Do I need a licence or something?

GSM EBlock Question

The Flowcode GSM EBlock doesn't seem to do Caller ID which is also sent via RS232 and I was wondering why not?

That's it really....

Re: PIC16F1825 Support?

Thanks for that!

Any idea when the release is due or is it down to Sourceboost?

PIC16F1825 Support?

I cannot find any info on the site to see if this device is supported in any version of Flowcode...

Is it please?

Re: Programmable RC-5 Remote Control

Hi Sean,

Another adaptation of RC5 is the Philips extension that is also used by Sky TV remote controls amongst others.

Can your code be modified to run these remotes as well?

Thanks for this stuff anyway!

Re: Flowcode 4 keeps crashing with Windows 7...

Hi Ben, No idea why but I was also getting the "Incorrect Language" error which I fixed using the info from Steve Tandy elsewhere in this forum and since then it has never happened. Probably not related but it's OK. On the RC5 front I was trying to decode a Sky TV remote which uses a slightly differ...

EB060 RC5 Eblock

Hi all,

I have a test file for this eBlock but cannot find the one that displays the received code on the LCD.

Does anyone have that file and can they PM it to me please!

Best regards,

RC5 IR Eblock...

Hi all, If I set up the PIC10F to do the 36k PWM side of RC5 can I send an actual RC5 command via the enable line and the 10F does the modulation? The reason I ask is I am unsure exactly what the device is doing. Am I correct to think that I can send it the RC5/CMD "number" I want to transmit? Other...

Flowcode 4 keeps crashing with Windows 7...

Hi guys, I keep getting this message whilst working on a flowchart in the latest version of both Flowcode and Windows 7. It only happens when I work using a PIC10F206 as the target device... It happens just out of the blue whether or not the simulation is running: "Problem signature: Problem Event N...

Re: Works in simulation but not hardware - any ideas please?

Hi Ben, Not too sure where that file came from! It works with the keypad on Port B and the LCD on Port D. Very quickly. On the interrupt; TMR0 overflows and then monitors the ports for changes but wouldn't it just be better to monitor Port B for a change which would presumably use less power? Thanks...

Works in simulation but not hardware - any ideas please?

I am running the LCD+key Flowcode file and it works great until I compile to the hardware. ECIO Base Board - ECIO40 - LCD and Keypad Eblock connected via Matrix splitter to Port B. It displays the text on the LCD but the keypad has no effect - I assumed by using an interrupt I could share Port B for...

Jump points in Flowcode 4 - is this a bug?

I realise that Flowcode is a graphically driven means of producing C code. I also realise that in C it isn't good to use GOTO's because it can get the program involved in looping and not coming back. Is that why if I set up a Macro with a decision I can't jump back to MAIN to the connection points a...

Re: Registration code not working

I upgraded a Dell Mini 9 to Windoze 7 and discovered the following:

The first time it runs enter Name and Key.... It says 'Accepted'.

After restarting the proggy it asks for keys again - do it again then go online from the Help - Register tab to do the registration...

Then it works....
