Matrix user forums

I have been in touch with David and have got FC registered ok.

Thanks for your help

Hi,

I have not managed to get a reply from David. Is there anyone at Matrix that is able to assist with the licensing of FC5?

Thanks

Hi guys,

Thanks for the reply. I have downloaded V5 and installed it without any issues. I have tried entering my license key into the web page and also tried to activate FC V5 with no luck. I will PM David with my licensing details. Thanks.

Hi,

Moving on a couple of years...I am also in the same situation, I have a new laptop and would like to download FC5 as well but cannot find where to get the download. The above link is no longer valid. Any help in pointing me in the the right direction would be great. Thanks.

Hi Guys,

Thanks for your help here, got it working fine now.

Hi,

I have tried to connect an LCD display to PORTC pins 0-5 and it will not work. I have connected it to PORTB with no problems. I have also tried with the same program using a PIC16F823 and connected the display to both PORTB and PORTC and it works ok on both ports.

Thanks

Hi Ben,

Thanks for that explanation, that clarifies the issue and i can now work around that. Thanks for your help

Hi Ben, Thanks for your reply. If i have a macro call for a send for the CAL UART in the main loop and also any other macro that i have created there are no problems. If i also put in a call for the CAL UART from any macro that is called via an interrupt i get the following message when there is the...

Hi, I have a program i am writing with code present in the main loop. I am also using the CAL UART component. I have an interrupt routine that is triggered by data being received by the UART. The interrupt routine processes the incoming data. Once this is done a status needs to be transmitted from t...

Hi Leigh, Thanks for your reply. I have done some additional testing and found that with each data transaction, the correct data was being sent and received with no timeouts so proving that the delay was not a result of a timeout situation. I noticed it was not working as expected so have let you kn...

Hi Ben,

Wondering if you have been able to look at this yet.

Thanks

Hi Ben, I am using the Modbus master component to communicate with a slave i/o device. The component functions appear to work fine with the data being sent and received as expected. However from when one command is sent to the module to another being sent, there is a larger than expected delay. I am...

Hi Ben,

I have tried using the modbus master function and i am getting the results i expect.

Thanks

Hi Ben,

The simulation is working as you mentioned. I understand about the compatibility issues, no worries there. I have some hardware arriving soon so can try with that. Once again thank you for your help, its always appreciated. Cheers

Thanks for your work on this, I am away for the next few days. When I get back I will try this out and let you know how we get on.

Thanks

Hi Ben, I have tried getting the Modbus components working, a master sending data to a slave and looking for the confirmation back at the master. In the master flowchart in the console you can see Modbus data being generated and the data in the Modbus master - Vnet that is being sent to the slave. W...

Hi Ben,

Ok with the unique channel instances it works fine now. Once again thanks for your good work.

Zane

Hi Ben, The extracted DLL file has been installed and I have set up two instances of flowcode each sending and receiving characters. It looks like they are sending but not receiving. Looks like only the one channel is being opened up. See what you think, hope i have set it up correctly? Running both...

Hi Ben, I installed the latest component, put a VNET and RS232 component into a project, very basic with an initialize for the rs232 component and then sending out a character every second in a loop. Looking at the console it looks like there is still an issue. Once again tried with the firewall off...

Hi Ben, Would these bugs also be present in FC7? I have tried to get my VNET injector running but have had no luck. I get the message UDP socket on channel 6 failed. I have seen another post relating to this. I have tried disabling my firewall and this has no effect. Do you have any ideas where i ca...

I have recently finished a job and needed PCB's to be made. I found a place in China called Seeed studios. https://www.seeedstudio.com/fusion_pcb.html If you stay within their standard manufacturing parameters it gives you a board 100mm x 100mm or smaller, 1oz copper, green solder mask etc and the c...

Hi Ben,

I have tried out the PWM function with timers 2, 4 and 6 and everything now works as expected

Thanks for your help with getting this fixed, most appreciated.

Cheers

Zane

Hi Ben, Thanks for looking at this for me. I have attached a small program where the two PWM channels are used. Channel 1 has timer 2 assigned to it. The values used for the period and the duty cycle work as expected. Channel 2 has timer 4 assigned to it. Any changes to the period are not reflected ...

Hi Ben,

How are you going with this, have you managed to find any time to look at this.

Thanks

Zane

Hi Ben,

I was wondering if you have had a chance to follow this up. I have also found that when using T2, T4 or T6 to drive an interrupt they all work at the given intervals set and when T4 and T6 are used with a PWM channel they experience the problems mentioned in the last post.

Thanks

Zane
