redtop's Ferduino controller

Please make a single side version and save one for me. Just send me the price quote.

Thank you again, Mark.
 
Hi everyone,

I just noticed this build.

I've been running Jarduino for about 1 month and it's fine for lighting.
I've been trying to piece together something that can have timer control on an 8 port power bar (chauvet16 build), as well as some internet access.

I figured I'd take a look at this one.
I followed the youtube video, but I'm having a compile error on the RusFont1.
Anyone ever have this problem and know how to fix it. The font is there.

Ferduino_English.cpp.o: In function `setFont(unsigned char, unsigned char, unsigned char, unsigned char, unsigned char, unsigned char, unsigned char)':
E:\arduino-1.0.5-r2 - Copy/Botoes_e_etc.ino:212: undefined reference to `RusFont1'

Ferduino_English.cpp.o:Ferduino_English.cpp:(.text._Z20printButton_vermelhoPciiiih+0xcc): more undefined references to `RusFont1' follow



Thanks,
Pogue

LOL I'm having trouble keeping up with this thread, I've been busy upscaling the Jarduino code and getting behind here :D

nice fan boards Marc

Pogue, follow the advice on the link Fernando posted, you'll get the font sorted out there, I had the same issue :D

anybody know of another code you'd like to see upscaled to fit a bigger screen ? I kinda like the challenge LOL
 
marc
when you get some free time which I know that is in high demand on your end could you please work up a list of parts needed for the boards and maybe a price for every thing
 
Hi!

I've an idea better to spend your time.

Create your own code. :)

I learned looking some codes.

Best regards.

Fernando Garcia

LOL I have much to learn still for that, but I want to do just that, but really, what's the use, the Ferduino has everything except the fish feeder that I want or need plus some already

What's the use? What's the use in upscaling controller codes when you already have one that does everything you want? For the challenge :)

And it is more fun!!!

LOL well there you have it, the challenge, I still have a lot to learn but I will work on my own version later once I have it figured out, but it's gonna be hard to improve on Fernando's code, really just changing the look is about all I could do LOL I would like to be able to help other who want a customized version though, I still have much to learn but Fernando is an awesome teacher :D
 
The best way to learn is to do it yourself. You can learn a lot by reading other's code, but not as much as writing your own. And you don't have to start with the full package - you can do it in stages. Or even knock up a few controllers for other stuff - there is still a non fishy world out there :)

that is true but I really don't have anything else I want to automate, I considered a programmable thermostat for our heating/cooling system but I already have one :D

aside from bringing me the TV remote, I can't think of anything else I need LOL
 
I made a mistakes soldering all the bottom pins from the tft shield with rtc. Should I cut them, or leave them? Just like this one here http://www.ferduino.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=41

I'm not fully understanding what you did but if you're gonna use the PCF8575 port expander, you'll need to remove the 20 & 21 pins and use the 18 & 19 pins for the RTC

otherwise, you should be OK, the PCF8575 is coded to be connected to the 20 & 21 pins and the RTC will then be assigned to the 18 & 19 pins
 
I keep getting white screen.

Mind you, I'm not using one of the shields in the UTFT, I'm using the ITDB32S.

So I followed the method of using the stock UTFT library in Fernandos link
http://http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/sh...&postcount=123

Still white screen. has anyone tried with this screen and succeded? Is the screen just too small?
Would I be looking at a tremendous amount of code rewriting to get it to work?

Thanks,
Pogue
 
Yes the sketch compiles.

I tried to different utft
I tried the one included in the ferduino package and I edited it to include itdb32s.

I also tried the stock utft and added the required fonts.
 
Hi!

This TFT isn't compatible with my code.

Anyway you can check this comment on file "memorysaver.h"

// Uncomment the lines for the displaycontrollers that you don't use to save
// some flash memory by not including the init code for that particular
// controller.

I had it loaded and could see it on my 3.2s screen but the entire right side is missing, which includes a lot of very important buttons, the 3.2S screen is useless with the Ferduino, you'll need the 3.2WD or 3.2WC screens or the 5 or 7 inch screens for the up scale version

if you want to view it on your screen, like Fernando said above, you'll need to go into the memorysaver file and set it up properly, there's no sense in calibrating it either, it's not gonna function properly no matter what, but if you're just interested in seeing that you have your libraries set up properly and whatnot, do as suggested above and you'll at least be able to test that
