Newbie in Need of Help with ECIO 40p Project
Posted: Wed Sep 16, 2009 3:26 pm
Hi,
First I must say that I'm really new to this but it's very interesting.
I'm an internet programmer right now but am very intent on learning micro controller fundamentals.
Here's what I have:
* EFIKA Micro-Motherboard (with Debian Linux installed)
* ECIO 40p
* Prototype circuit board
* 3 Pushbuttons(momentary)
* LEDs
Here's my project goal:
When a button is pressed, a designated LED(s) will light up and a certain audio file should be played via the Efika. The LED(s) should remain lit until the audio is done playing.
Fairly simple program I suppose...but not for a total newbie! I'm kinda lost on how to wire this up and even struggling on the Flowcode end of it.
I would really appreciate it f someone could take a few minutes to explain how I should proceed and maybe point me to some resources that I could use to learn more.
Sorry if the this is a really vague question.
Thanks in advance!
