i am writing the data in eeprom of nodemcu esp8266 12e but their is error in writing data. after restarting the board the value is lost again not store for long . help to solve this issue.
when i am writing the data in eeprom on board the data is write in eeprom but after restarting the board the value will lost.
memcpy (msg,message.payload,message.payloadlen);
Serial.print(msg);
int compare = 1;
if (0==(compare=(strncmp("ON",msg,4)))) {
val = 1 ;
digitalWrite(LED,HIGH);
EEPROM.write(addr,val);
compare = 1;
}
else if (0==(compare=(strncmp("OFF",msg,4)))) {
val = 0 ;
digitalWrite(LED,LOW);
EEPROM.write(addr,val);
compare = 1;
}
So, the ESP8266 does not actually have an EEPROM. The authors of the Arduino SDK instead map out a small section of flash (You can find the actual size in the linker scripts) to be used for the virtual EEPROM.
When you call EEPROM.write(addr, x), it stores the data in a shadow copy of the virtual-EEPROM, but, does not store it in flash until EEPROM.commit(); is called.

I try original O-Scope project (PigOScope) without touchscreen based on STM32F103C8T6 Bluepill board, but got some problem:
I used newest rogerclarkmelbourne/Arduino_STM32 Core and downloaded
pingumacpenguin/STM32-O-Scope sketch. I compiled and uploaded it to the device via UART from 0x08000000 address. Then I started the device. The grid and coordinate lines were displayed on the screen. Also on the screen were displayed inscriptions below 0.0 uS/Sample etc... But any noise or pulse signal from PB1 on my Probe. Why the chart is not drawn?
Also I tried to log my steps in Usart in DMA activation code function:
void takeSamples()
{
// This loop uses dual interleaved mode to get the best performance out of
the ADCs
Serial.println("Init DMA");
dma_init(DMA1);
dma_attach_interrupt(DMA1, DMA_CH1, DMA1_CH1_Event);
Serial.println("Enable DMA for ADC");
adc_dma_enable(ADC1);
dma_setup_transfer(DMA1, DMA_CH1, &ADC1->regs->DR, DMA_SIZE_32BITS,
dataPoints32, DMA_SIZE_32BITS, (DMA_MINC_MODE |
DMA_TRNS_CMPLT));// Receive buffer
Serial.println("Set DMA transfer");
Serial.println(maxSamples / 2);
dma_set_num_transfers(DMA1, DMA_CH1, maxSamples / 2);
dma1_ch1_Active = 1;
Serial.println("Enable the channel and start the transfer");
dma_enable(DMA1, DMA_CH1); // Enable the channel and start the transfer.
samplingTime = micros();
Serial.println(samplingTime);
while (dma1_ch1_Active); // SOME BUG OR WHAT.... PROGRAM STOP HERE!!!
samplingTime = (micros() - samplingTime);
Serial.println("Disable DMA");
dma_disable(DMA1, DMA_CH1); //End of trasfer, disable DMA and Continuous
mode.
}
Event handler for stop interrupt
static void DMA1_CH1_Event()
{
dma1_ch1_Active = 0;
}
Volatile flag to stop routine
volatile static bool dma1_ch1_Active = 0;
Program keep crushing on while loop i think... And program does't work beyond takeSamples() function.
Why program does't exit the loop?
I am trying to build a simple FLASH memory programmer (for 39SF020A) using my arduino mega. I wrote the C code and Python script to send the data over (And it all works as expected).
I need to transfer about 32k of hexadecimal data, but with my settings only 10k of data took about 4 minutes (115200 BAUD), which i found unnecessary long. Currently, i am sending over serial (from Python) my value with a terminator (i chose '$'), so for exmple '3F$'. adresses are calulated on the arduino, so no need to send them.
In my arduino code, i have
String received_string = Serial.readStringUntil('$');
and after programming every byte to teh FLASH using arduino, it sends back a '\n' to let the Python know, that it is ready to receive next byte (the python is waiting for receiving a 'line' and then continues). I am not really sure if this is a way to do it, if sending only one byte at the time is good idea and if not, how many and how do i parse them on the arduino? Is the feedback loop useful?
Thanks.
Python Code:
('file' contains all data)
for item in file[1:]:
ser.write((item + "$").encode("ascii"))
line = ser.readline()
i += 1
if i >= top:
break
elif (i % 100) == 0:
print(i)
Arduino code (just part of it)
if (Serial.available() > 0){
String received_string = Serial.readStringUntil('$');
programData(received_string.toInt(),program_adress);
program_adress++;
}
void programData(char data_in, unsigned long adress)
{
digitalWrite(OE,HIGH);
digitalWrite(CE,LOW);
writeByte(0xAA, 0x5555);
writeByte(0x55, 0x2AAA);
writeByte(0xA0, 0x5555);
writeByte(data_in, adress);
Serial.print("\n"); // Feedback for Python
delayMicroseconds(30); // Just to be on the safe side
}
void writeByte(char data_in, unsigned long adress)
{
setDataAs(OUTPUT);
digitalWrite(OE,HIGH);
digitalWrite(WE,HIGH);
setAdress(adress);
setData(data_in);
digitalWrite(WE,LOW);
delayMicroseconds(1);
digitalWrite(WE,HIGH);
}
// Sets data BUS to input or output
void setDataAs(char dir){
for (unsigned int i = 0; i < data_size ;i++) pinMode(data[i],dir);
}
// Sets data to specific values
void setData(char data_i){
setDataAs(OUTPUT);
for (int i = 0; i < data_size;i++) { digitalWrite(data[i],bitRead(data_i,i)); }
}
void setAdress(long adr){
// Set all adresses
for (int i = 0; i < adresses_size;i++)
digitalWrite(adresses[i],bitRead(adr,i));
}
I need to transfer data serially from AT89s52 to Hyperterminal of PC.
For that I made a sample program to print "Hello" on the hyperterminal of my PC by programming the below given code inside 89s52 microcontroller and connecting it to my PC via serial port. Now when I am opening hyperterminal for the respective port, I should be seeing "Hello" printed on the screen multiple times, but what actually I am seeing is some garbage data getting printed.
This is the code I have used.
#include < AT89X52.H>
#include < STDLIB.H>
#include < STDIO.H>
unsigned int i;
void main (void)
{
TMOD = 0x20;
SCON = 0x50;
TH1 = 0xFD;
TL1 = 0xFD;
TR1 = 1;
TI = 1;
P1 = 0;
while (1)
{
puts("Hello\r");
P1 ^= 0x01; /* Toggle P1.0 each time we print */
for(i=0;i<25000;i++);
}
}
In the Hyper terminal I am not getting correct output i.e. Hello. Instead I am seeing some Garbage characters..
Can anybody help on this please..?
Can you See P1 is toggling? I would rather send a single character first and observe what is sending by using an oscilloscope. You should see a digital signal corresponding to the ASCII value of the character being split-out from the TX pin of the micro. Also you can check the baud rate (exact value) by using the scope. If you are convinced that the correct value is sent at the right baud rate it is most likely that you got a bad connection or perhaps the baud rate should slightly be changed.
I try to send the data from pc to the pic microcontroller. I am a beginner in PIC.
I send the data from hyperterminal and the data will display in the led in port B of PIC.
I used 10Mhz clock and the connection in 9600 baudrate.
here my uart.h program:
char UART_Init(const long int baudrate)
{
unsigned int x;
x = (_XTAL_FREQ - baudrate*64)/(baudrate*64);
if(x>255)
{
x = (_XTAL_FREQ - baudrate*16)/(baudrate*16);
BRGH = 1;
}
if(x<256)
{
SPBRG = x;
SYNC = 0;
SPEN = 1;
TRISC7 = 1;
TRISC6 = 1;
CREN = 1;
TXEN = 1;
return 1;
}
return 0;
}
char UART_TX_Empty()
{
return TRMT;
}
char UART_Data_Ready()
{
return RCIF;
}
char UART_Read()
{
while(!RCIF);
return RCREG;
}
void UART_Read_Text(char *Output, unsigned int length)
{
int i;
for(int i=0;i<length;i++)
Output[i] = UART_Read();
}
void UART_Write(char data)
{
while(!TRMT);
TXREG = data;
}
void UART_Write_Text(char *text)
{
int i;
for(i=0;text[i]!='\0';i++)
UART_Write(text[i]);
}
and this is my main program:
#include<htc.h>
#include<pic.h>
#define _XTAL_FREQ 10000000 //Clock Frequency
#include "uart.h"
void main()
{
TRISB = 0x00; //PORTB as Output
UART_Init(9600);
do
{
if(UART_Data_Ready())
PORTB = UART_Read();
__delay_ms(1000);
}while(1);
}
in hyperteminal I send data say 10010010 but the led in port B do not respond, are there any error in my program?
You have several steps: initialize UART, initialize LEDs, communicate over UART and setup your PC's UART. Which components have you successfully written and tested? You say you're a beginner, so what is the smallest functional program you have successfully executed on a PIC? I've been working with microcontrollers for years, but I still schedule about a whole day to get a single LED to turn on because it could be a software problem, a hardware problem, a voltage problem, an oscillator problem, a PCB problem or a compiler problem.
Here are the steps I take for microchip bring up:
Go over the oscillator section, the configuration bits section, the watchdog section and the pinout section (looking for VDD and VSS) in the datasheet. These are some of the hardest parts to get right. (A gotcha about the oscillator: just because you can program a chip, doesn't mean the oscillator is working because the programmer provides it's own clock.)
Write the bare-minimum code to turn on a single LED.
Write the bare-minimum code to make the LED blink (just use a for-loop delay for now, timers come later)
Write UART initialization code and transmit a single character, I use captial U because it's pretty in binary. TXREG = 'U';
Connect the UART to a PC and see if the hyperterminal sees the U. If it doesn't, I connect an oscilscope to the lines to make sure that the PIC is transmitting, that the PC transmits when I type characters and that the timing of the edges matches.
Within the PIC code, have the UART echo characters from the terminal. (TXREG = RXREG;), and then type on the hyperterminal and make sure the characters are echoed back.
One more note:
Do not have the PIC perform the SPBRG calculation. PIC16 are 8-bit processors and 10000000 requires 32-bits to store. There might be hiccups with the integer divison. It might not have a bug in it, but there's no need to have the PIC calculate it each time. Calculate it before-hand and hard-code the value.
I have been using the GPS module on waspmotes, and I have been able to get data off it. However on a fine day, with clear visible skies(which I don't think matters), I cannot be able to set the power mode on.
On calling GPS.setMode(GPS_ON), it fails to set the power mode on, and on freezes on subsequent call to: gpsConnected = GPS.check();
I have tried changing the GPS unit to no avail. I am using the following code. (NB: I have removed the unnecessary bits of code for the sake of brevity)
void setup()
{
ACC.ON();
USB.begin(); // Opening UART to show messages using 'Serial Monitor'
//Initialize the GPS module
GPS.ON(); // Turn GPS on
GPS.setMode(GPS_ON); // set GPS on
if(!GPS.pwrMode) USB.println("Was unable to set on the GPS internal power mode."); //this message gets printed.
if(!GPS.setCommMode(GPS_NMEA_GGA)) USB.println("Was unable to set the GPS communication mode.");
// Power up the Real Time Clock(RTC), init I2C bus and read initial values
RTC.ON();
........
}
void loop(){
//declare the variables
len, i, j = 0;
char degree[4] = "", minutes[8] = "", *latitude, *longitude, *altitude;
uint8_t temperature = 0;
int8_t fileFound = 0;
double latitude_dd, longitude_dd;
byte accOk;
//check if the GPS has connected to the satellite
GPS.begin(); // open the uart
GPS.init(); // Inits the GPS module
gpsConnected = GPS.check();
........
........
}
What might have happened???
Any help will be appreciated.
This was caused by using the RTC.setTime function. In the code, as can be seen here: http://pastebin.com/RmA98MkD, on line 195, RTC.setTimeFromGPS(), I was setting the boards time with the time that I received from GPS. This ended up screwing the GPS connection up and the code only looped once. You can see detailed conversations from here: http://www.libelium.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=9861
You Need to simple test. First you ensure that you are giving TTl input to the Tx and rx pin . If you upload this program It will gives GPS output string.If you are using GPS module with Serial output of RS 232 out, As you said it wont work.IT expecting TTl input only
void setup()
{
Serial.begin();
}
void loop()
{
}
