Another way to handle byte/string conversion is by using a queue. You can put data into the queue as one type and pull it out as aonther. When pulling a string...
While writing a set of basicx vm is probably beyond my capabilities, it seems as if you are saying that someone COULD rewrite certain functions for the VM and...
In my GPS reader program, I use one buffer over and over, so it does not waste too much ram on fixed string allocations. But, I could probably cut it down by...
Yes, I am pulling the data off a serial port. I do know the length of the strings, and so I COULD do the "conversion" on the fly as I read the data. GREAT...
... You misunderstand my point. As discussed in my articles on BasicX, System Library functions are implemented two ways. One way is inside the BasicX virtual...
OK, I get it now. I still have yet to re-read your articles in light of my new questions. I might have to write new functions for these conversions. Better...
... Below is a function that reads digits from an array and converts them to the equivalent value. It is somewhat generalized in that you pass it the number...
... If the BX-24 could speak USB, they'd probably work. I use TDK Blu2i modules in cable replacement mode at 115200. The link is controlled just like a modem...
That looks like a good way to do it. I like the generality of its ability. Sometimes I wonder if it is worth checking the data integrity. Maybe one should...
Tell me more. I just got a BlueTooth doongle for my Zire72 PDA. It is the deluxe with a 300meter range. I suppose that I could get a USB to Serial adapter to...
Having had the same problem and in a muddle with all the documenets, I let this sit for nearly a year. Finally, I tried changing the Parallel Port addresses in...
The Parallel Port configuration defaults to a non-existent address on installation. With all the documentation pointing to the old proto-type board and its ...
http://blu2i.com/index.asp You can't connect a USB client, like your Bluetooth dongle, to a USB/RS232 adapter, which is another USB client. You'll need to...
Okay. So what is available as a USB host for small projects? Can you just buy a chip and drive it with a BX-24? If so, I could just plug another doongle...
Is it possible to juggle the jumpers so that you have two processors, a BX-24 and a BX-01 or BX-35 running on the board at the same time and possibly using a...
hi, i just got a bx-24. when i run the downloader/editor and try to reset the module or compile and run my own program, i get the same error - the downloader...
... I'm sure one can. But can you develop a BX-24 USB root hub for less than the $50? Isn't it more effective to grunt at the price, pay it, and move on with...
... You need all 4 wires (pin 1 through 4) connected correctly to the PC for downloads to work correctly. First look at the ground wire (pin 4 on the BX-24)...
smariotti, thanks for the feedback. I've used Hamamatsu sensors before but the problem is always the encoder disk. How you mount it to a given shaft and the...
re: Bluetooth ranges Tom, what kind of 'open air' ranges are you seeing with that module? Thanks, - Tom ... Blu2i ... controlled ... explored it, ... carry...
... I'm very happy with the Blu2i range. I can control my project from a Bluetoothed PDA more than 100 meters down my street - with three 802.11x APs within...
Hello there, I just got my BX-24 with a Development Board. Unfortunately the dev board fails the built-in blinking LED factory test programm. When hitting the...
Tom, wow. That's well beyond BT specs if I recall. My Palm T3 with a TomTom GPS can only get around 10ft at best... I definitely want to check out that module....
Alex, sorry if this is not of much help... I also have a BX-24 Development Station. The fact that you can get the BX-24 to do the LED tests on a breadboard...
I'll need to look to remember what I ordered, but you will want to get the developer's kit to get going quickly; the Hirose connector is impossible to work...
Tom, once again, my reply was trashed by Yahoo... To simplify it; I'm looking forward to your response about the Development kit and cost. Hirose connectors...
To follow up on Hirose, they do make nice fine-pitch connectors... It's just that after you are targeting a market, you may want to use connectors based on...
... 13 months ago, I ordered two Blu2i Developer's Kits, just as depicted on http://www.blu2i.com, for US$180 each, directly from TDK's Neil Perez via the...
Hi Mike, I'm defeinitely not using a null modem cable and have read the documentation extensively (but will continue readind). The serial cable is connected...
