Hello, I am trying to access an ATMEL 24C512 EEPROM and am having quite a bit of difficulty. I think have everything wired correctly and the BX24 seems to be sending out the correct pulses but I'm getting nothing back from the EEPROM. When I wait for it's acknowledgement, nothing happens. I am pulling up both SCL and SDA and the BX24 can pull them down but the memory never changes ...

I have pulled out the last strand of hair and cannot find the problem. I essentially have an 8870 DTMF decoder with the binary output pins connected to pins on the BX. There is a resistor to ground at that junction which if I remember correctly is 100K. Here is clipping of the code. If ((Getpin(5) = 1) AND (Getpin(6) = 0) AND (Getpin(8) =0) AND

http://cubloc.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=34 This is an interesting post on the cubloc user group which puts the speed of the cubloc & BX24P at about the same. The Cubloc however has some very powerful and friendly features. It also lacks a couple of features that the BX24 has so you have to determi

I have a BX-24 running a pipe organ scanning routine and one of its modes is to output data in MIDI format which requires a baud rate of 31,250 and setting Register.UBRR = 14 works perfect. However, I would like to communicate with the BX-24 over the hardware Comm1 from my laptop. My laptop does not support the MIDI baud rate and I event tried a VB/Wi

Hi, I need to find out when someone walks up to a window sensing proximity of about 2 meters from the window. I can't place the sensor on the outside, so the sensor have to work through glass. I have tested the long range distance sensor from Sharp - GP2Y0A02YK, which works through glass. The problem is that it has a very narrow beam. D

I was wondering if someone out there can offer some advice on how to drive dot-matrix LED displays with the BX-24. I need to create a simple scrolling text display using several of these displays. The one possible caveat is that the text it will be displaying will be from an embeeded web server (possibly the siteplayer). I was searching old posts and notic
