Programming

If I wanted to learn how to/teach myself to programme the OSTC or at least understand the code better, is there some form of reference or teaching material I could read?

Re: Source Code download issue

Ok should have checked before posting. That seems to have built a lib file and not a hex file, so won't be flashing anything at the moment.

I then changed the library output to 'build library target ( invoke MPLIB)' I cleaned and built all again ...

Source Code download issue

Hi Guys and girls, I am trying to do a bit of fiddling with the safety stop depths on V2.51beta but I can't seem to download the source code. I can download the stable no problems but the beta is not there. I have a newish computer running XP and this is the first time I've tried the MPLAB software ...

Re: New firmware 2.50 available for the Mk.2/2N

Ok I have found the limits and successfully changed it to run from 6 to 3 metres. I thought I might increase the stop time. I set that to 240 and no problems, the simulator gives a 4 minute stop. Then I thought I might try a 5 minute stop so I set it to 300. When I ran that on the simulator it gave ...
