[simpits-tech] RE: Ded for Falcon4 ( A little of history )

[Erwin Neyt]

Nice work there, Pigi.

I have a Q for you guys working with DED data. Can you confirm you are
getting OK data from shared memory??

I am using SP3 and getting nothing back but shit. I hope it's a bug in F4
Glass but I have looked so long at the code I am just not sure anymore.
So if one of you can confirm the data being valid, I can start rewriting....

BTW Did UDP for the F4 Data Mirror and I get at least 100 fps (that is
sh.mem updates) over a 100Mbps network. A lot better than TCP :) Makes F4
Glass run really smooth. Still have to work on the F4DM key mapping stuff
(gonna be nice), and after that fix some bugs from the F4 Glass v1.0 beta
before I can release it.

Well, DED anyone??

cheers,

Erwin.

Hi,
I will be great and very useful to see the beginning of an adventure
like that..
. Your web link is very interesting.

A real time DED working is essential with a ICP buttons and switches.
We are many here to have a ICP custom built but no DED before you arrive
..

With you and Eagle 9 shared memory, it could be, now, possible.

Ok, I will check some news about you or contact directly..

All DED pages works well ?
(have you other screenshots)

Sincerly
Jean-Yves

Well,
 for everyone interessed, sometimes ago I've published a little page,
explaining
the basic of my project.
Maybe someone of you already have seen it.

Ok, let's go on...
Sometimes ago I decided to have a led, or a light, on the desk that was
"linked"
with the falcon airbrakes ( I always forgot them out... :) )
This Ded is the "phase two" of the project that you can see on

http://casapigi.no-ip.org:81/progetti/Lucine_e.shtml

The project is based on a serial connection to the pc that is running
falcon.
On this pc there is a program that collect the data (thank to eagle9 for
the
magic pages explaining the Shared Memory schema ) and sends those out to
the
first module with the lights on.
This last one is responsable also for the communication with the others
modules
( actually only the Ded ).
The communication is based on i2c so it's easy to add modules.
There is an error on the schema, and on the circuit, that I will (try to
) fix
for the end of the (next) week ( the two pullup resistors are connected
to
ground, but should be connectto the +5v) .
In the same period I will ( try to ) publish also the schema and circuit
for
the
Ded and the hex files for the micro that are on the circuits, as well as
the
program needed on the PC.
For everyone interessed in more info, feel free to contact directly (
but pls
use a right "subject"  on the mail, because I usually receive a lot of
spam so
I delete every uniteressed subject).
