FLOWCODE 9 MCP23017 PROBLEM
Posted: Sun Dec 06, 2020 11:16 am
Hi
Item 1 ====================
Have been using an I2C LCD Display and I2C MCP23017 Expander chip in Flowcode 8 with arduino UNO R3 with no problems
On running in Flowcode 9 LCD works but MCP23017 does not
1 Tried many times and still does not work
2 Even re wrote a test in Flowcode 9 from scratch with same results ie no MCP23017 control ( I also did try to include the fcdx file here as an attachment but in 9 can presently only seem to get it to accept gif files ? )
3 Also tried software and hardware congiuation for MCP23017 and different baud rates and gives same results
3 But when ii try n simulation mode ie using the console Flowcode 8 and 9 gives identical results to each other
So although the program appears to compile okay in 8 & 9 only LCD works in 9 hardware
So as the hardware is exactly the same Is there an issue with the compiler or MCP23017 FCD in 9
Have spent many hours on this but no further forward
Item 2 ===================
I purchased on Friday Flow code 9 new standard license but cannot appear to get it registered yet as have not revived the activation code
so currently still using your free 30 day Flowcode 9 version
Can you send me the activation code ASAP
iTEM 3 =================
I have been using paid standard copies from V3 including V6 & V8 and a number of EBlocks so have spent a considerable amount of money with Matrix
This also includes 3 dsPIC ECIO
As i experiment using DSP and other functions on ECIO this i was very disappointed as others are that this is now appears only to be available in the PRO version
Please review this decision which i trust you will amend
Best Regards
David
