... Incredible! Five new Duracell 2650mAH AAs ran the project for 29 hours at ~100mA, and supplied ~6.9 to 5.595v before suddenly - within six seconds -...
Hello again, I have an Xbee pro development kit and learning it as I go. Before I had problems with the Xbee band rate and the computer would see the debug...
I'm getting back into the BasicX and old age keeps me from retaining a lot of information <grin>. I have a a ULN2803a and I'm trying to fire some 24vdc air...
Sort of. If your 24v valves draw the same current (380mA) as mine do then you can't drive them with a single output of the 2803. However the docs say you can...
Hi everybody. I knew it would happen some day: loaded largish program, disconnected "rs232" cable, connected to target RS232, and - display went dark and dead ...
Hello Marco, what I did was: Powerdown the BasicX. Start the PC and the BasicX development environment. Make a simple prog of 1 line. Start uploading it to the...
I have the file BXtoCom I believe it is called? Anyways, it's the one with the BX module and the VB project that reads 8 bytes and sends 8 bytes. Well I've...
Hi, For your information and consideration. I am using the BasicX in my projects and right now I am driven six solenoids 24 volts - 2 amps using 6 TIP121...
Hi there, I have a problem with my servo (Hitec HS-815BB). It used to work just fine. Then I switched off BX-24, and when I switched it on again, the command...
ULN2803 current sink per pin is 500mA (600mA peak) at up to 30v (50v max). 4k7 base resistors are built in, so you can connect it direct to a BX. Also...
I just download the primer from this site to use Ultraedit as a development environment, but I can't seem to get it to work properly. Did something change with...
There is only 2 problems that I can think of. Electrical or mechanical. Could be a bad gear. Bad motor. Bad circuit board. Also it could be stuck on the hard...
Hi Mech, Thanks for your help. The Hitec HS815BB is a great servo, and it can easily do the task. -Michael ... motors. ... and close it ... which ... g, ... ...
Thank you Wim, but no way: I wrote a 12 byte program but I keep getting "unable to halt" message with error codes from 198 to 202. OTOH I retested the PC com...
I knew nothing was wrong with my code! lol. I code my BX code in VB, and forgot to re-compile using the editor before downloading the new binaries. A noobish...
... Tokens? I think you misunderstand; there is no token network in that example. I think you were right in your first message; MSComm event 5 signals a ...
... Well, I am now a little more battery-smart. I've learned that cell voltage, alone, is insufficient to determine the battery state-of-charge, and voltage...
I haven't been on here for quite a while, but I decided to pull the BX24 out and begin a new project. Hi I'm building a project where I want to datalog the...
Hello I'm developing an application where 2 basicx communicate with each other using GPRS protocol. Does anyone have tried this? Any source code available? Any...
Dave; Some ideas... Nuts & Volts Magazine ( www.NutsVolts.com ) has a series (The Design Cycle) that is covering all the Internet Protocols. Try www.Koders.com...

I think what you're really looking for is information on Packet Radio. The communications protocol is completely up to you, you simply need a method to get the...
Hello I established already a PPP connection between each of the BX24 and the server via TC65 Siemens GPRS modem. Now what I need is to know the sequence of...
Hi Michael, if the servo is stuck (can not be moved by hand) when all the power is turned off, then you have a mechanical problem. If that is the case then it...
Hello, I also program AB PLCs and try to experment using what I know with programing PLC in RS logic to the microcontrolers. I am working on what would be a...
Try sending <ESC>[2J to the console from your application. I haven't tried it in the debug window, but Hyperterminal responds to all of the standard...
I try to send it with the cstr but dose not work. Is there something else besides the CSTR to send it ?? Don Kirby <psyclopedia@...> wrote: Try sending...
Hi Sami, THanks for your response. THe servo is back on track. It could still be moved by hand when the power was off. I took it apart, checked all the...
