Bill I've often wondered if the correction for QNH is done in the Mode C encoder, or at the SSR interrogating station. Commonsense tells me it must be done at...
I think it is beginning to dawn on me that you can't just plug in the 2X16LCD into the supplied socket on the BX24 Development Board but must add some wires to...

From: itisnt <itisnt@...> ... There's a problem with having a procedure with the same name as the enumeration constant. Try giving them different names. ...
One thing that I noticed with enum types, which think is a compiler bug, is that if you use an enumeration value in two or more enumerations, no compiler error...
Does anyone have the details on the floating point format used by BasicX? Is it IEEE-754? If so, would the MemAddress function return the address of the...
... My observation suggests that BasicX stores the IEEE format (4 bytes) in little endian format (exponent first). This site may help with encoding and...
... Neil as I understand it the correction in a small aircraft is done by the ground station as the mode-c encoder is left always reporting relative to 29.92...

Thanks Bill. I own 3 light aircraft and all three mode C encoders are the same, and the SSR reads my height to within 50 feet or so irrespective of the QNH....
Thanks guys I think that should get me going on my way. Oh yeah on more thing though, I want my barometric pressure to show up to one decimal point in kPa (as...

After reading the schematics for the development board, I see that the LCD should work without any manual wiring -- it does not! I do see some minor changes...
Nevermind! I assumed the sample code was directly usable -- NOT! Once I changed to Com3 (from Com1) and the input port to 5 (from 17), everything started...
Hi, Just wondering how fast the BX-24 chip is? I want to detect buttons pressing (will actually be a switch hooked up to a propeller moved with wind) So I'm...
