Using base component to crate new component.

[graemef]

Hi, I am mew to FC and am using version 11.

Can anybody assist me in using a base component to create a new component.

Specifically I want to use the Generic GPS component in the Comms section to modify it so I can use it on my GPS.

The generic component only has TX and not RX. So i'm guessing I nee at least and extra macro for this and perhaps some GPIO's

The examples on the wiki don't really show step by step examples, and seems to have only a finished example without steps.

Any help would be appreciated.

Rgds, Graeme

Hello.
If you right click the GPS component and select Help,
The wiki page for that component will open and you just need to scroll down to:
Component Source Code
Download the Component Source Code, then open it up with Flowcode as normal.
Follow this topic to make changes and to change the guid so your component does not get overridden or to export.
You can save the exported component in a new folder.
