When you take a screenshot, after selecting the area you wish to capture, a popup appears asking how you want the screenshot saved. Save capture.png I save to paint. I then use paint to save as png.

Re: DECIMAL POINT HEADACHE

Whoops, sorry.
The divider is to the power of
No divide is 10 to the power of 0 = 1.
I used 10 to the power 1 = 10
To fix that just change the 1 to 0:

Re: DECIMAL POINT HEADACHE

Hi Bob.
You're welcome and thank you for the nice comments.
The flowchart is a demonstration of how I would divide down depending on the result.
I have not checked the rest of the flowchart, nor have I tested o hardware.
If you find it does not work as expected, then I will help you further.

Re: DECIMAL POINT HEADACHE

Hi Bob.
I have attached the way I would handle the dividing.
With the attached flowchart,
If R = 123.456 then the result on the display should be 123.4Ω
If R = 123456.789 then the result on the display should be 123.4KΩ
If R is 123456789.01 then the result on the display should be 123.4MΩ

Re: Programming a servo motor to stop at specific points

Hi, as servos have all their electronics built-in, you don't require a L298 controller, which is for DC motors. Unless you are creating your own servo with DC motors? In that case, you will need some form for positional feedback from the motor. If it is a servo motor you are using then the signal pu...

Hi Rod, For your flowchart to do what you want, It looks like the modulus is the way to go since you have not got any other modulus functions in your flowchart, except for the timer interrupt. If you did have modulus functions in other user macros, including main, then to avoid corruption, an altern...

Re: Analog_Pot_Uart

Hi. I had a look at your flowchart. The interrupt component must be called only once, so it's best to place it before the main loop. That is probably the issue of why you are just getting 0? I would not recommend placing the Modulus function within an interrupt. It better to use interrupt_cntrl = in...

Hi Martin. To me it looks like the wiring does not match the pins set within LED properties.

Re: UART with two differnt baudrates

You don't need code for 1200 as that is not a custom rate, you just choose 1200 within UART properties.
Just make sure the timings are correct with a one-sec flasher test first.

Re: MEASURE RESISTANCE

Hi Bob.
Jumper wires will affect the readings because of the pin to breadboard strip resistance.
This is more so with smaller round pins than the larger square pins that are very common.
I have seen that effect when using an Analogue temperature sensor, smaller pin jumper wires and Sparkfun RedBoard.
