Working with RS485 communications
 
The EB062 2-channel RS485 E-Block is now available to support a range of high speed, long distance, wired communication and signalling applications. This month’s Knowledge Zone article describes the range of features and configuration options available. It also includes example programs that allow a small network of units to be connected together.
 
"In a previous article we discussed some of the features of the RS485 communications standard, developing a simple network protocol using the Flowcode RS232 (UART) component in 9-bit data mode. The original article was based on prototype hardware, but we now have the EB062 RS485 E-block which is capable of supporting this, and many..." read more.

New - dsPIC and PIC 24 multiprogrammer and Flowcode 4 for dsPIC and PIC 24

This dsPIC/PIC24 microcontroller multiprogrammer connects to your PC via USB and can be used with Flowcode and most third party compilers. The board will program a wide range of 18, 20, 28 and 40 pin PICmicro microcontroller devices from the PIC24F, PIC24H, dsPIC30 and dsPIC33 series. Our new version of Flowcode has all the standard functionality you will find in our PIC, ARM and AVR products with some updated components and advanced customisation. For a low cost dsPIC, PIC 24 and E-Blocks kit,   click here (EB655SI4).

Remember if you already have a copy of Flowocde, you may get up to 50% discount using the crossgrade option.



Make your views count

Following the fantastic response to our last questionnaire on Flowcode V5, we have compiled a set of questions to get feedback from our E-block users. We always value feedback from our users, and this is the perfect way to have your say and influence the features that will appear in future versions of E-blocks.

The online questionnaire will take only a few minutes to complete and one lucky respondent will receive £200 worth of free Matrix hardware or software.
