Can I have the data sheet of the MI3486 ?
Is this product supported?
I couldn't find any doc on the web site under the tab resources.

I wanted to connect to it two sensors from made by vernier

Hi,
Yes, if you go to the MIAC web page the datasheets are listed, the 'System' ones are what you need,
MIAC System Operations Guide, in particular.
The add-on modules, such as the Advanced, are supported in Flowcode V5 and V7.
We have yet to give these documents a V7 focus, but the principles and hardware details still apply.
Hope that helps,
Leigh

Flowcode V5 is no longer available.

We will soon have a free version of Flowcode v7 that allows compilation to a number of targets including our MIAC units, but there are limits to the number of icons and macros available.

Also, the new pricing structure for Flowcode v7 means you can just buy the parts you want. All the MIAC components are available freely with v7 and are not part of any feature pack - so with just the PIC-8bit pack (and the pro pack if you are working in a commercial setting) you can get what you need and the upgrade price from v6 will not be too much. You can upgrade the other parts of v7 at a later date when funds become available and any upgrade discount you have will still be available.

Hi Steve,
I am a bit confused.
Do you mean flowcode 7 free version plus the PIC-8bit pack?
Is it 80 pounds plus VAT?
When is flowcode 7 free version available? I need to work on the project now!

You should then contact sales@matrixtsl.com, and if you are a teacher, your uni needs to buy educational licenses i think?
