IRSensor & LineSensor

Post by sundgau »

Hi Benj,
I have two problems with you regarding line and distance sensors.
The first concerns the return variable of the functions "CheckIR" and "CheckLine" which is in byte:
MX_UINT8 FCD_0dcd1_FormulaAllCode1__CheckIR (MX_UINT8 FCL_SENSOR)
while the return variable of "ReadIRSensor" is in full: MX_UINT16 LCD_0dcd1_FormulaAllCode1__ReadIRSensor (MX_UINT8 FCL_CHANNEL)
During operation there are several state changes depending on the distance!
Same for "ReadLine" and "CheckLineSensor".

During operation there are several state changes depending on the distance!

Another problem now that concerns the simulation; the function "CheckIR" is not simulated unlike the "CheckLine function that works well (and that simulates the first problem).

Thank you in advance for having the time to work on these problems for a V7 flowcode solution!
Bruno

Thanks for letting us know. It looks like the bug is present in v7 and v8 so I'll get them both fixed.

Please find attached an updated version of the v7 component. Simly copy the file into your "Flowcode 7\components" folder and restart Flowcode.
