Furure Hardware Support?
Re: Furure Hardware Support?

Try it now?
The file now works. Looks like your led on and off are backwards though Question: I was looking at you COM port schematic, and you have your port number 2 going to your CLOSE trigger. It looks like the integer output functions as a trigger on change, in addition to outputting an integer. Is that a documented feature? It seems pretty handy, thats the thing I like about Flowstone, you can dig into the code pretty easily and figure out how stuff works. Another question: is there a legitimate reason why the COM port selector module number is off by 1? I see everyone using it adds a 1 to it to get the correct number, but it seems a bit weird to me.

Re: Furure Hardware Support?
I would like to control a PC keyboard..... Dumb right? I know you have a "Is Key Pressed" primitive, which gives a BOOL output for any given key being pressed. What I want is the opposite. For a BOOL input, a key code is sent to the PC that shows that key being pressed. This may be very easy, but I couldn't find a primitive, or think of a way to do this. There is probably a way to do this in the assembly code window, by POKEing that value into a memory location, but I wouldn't know how to go about that.
In particular, I want to be able to do this to control a MIDI synth with a PC keyboard selected as an input, and my use of a gamepad or something as an alternative input method.

It's just that the selector modules start at 0,1,2,3 and COM ports start at 1,2,3,4 so you have to add 1 to the selector output.

Re: Furure Hardware Support?
Please make Flowstone support with freescale multimedia processor, nec, tms (texas Instrument) and GPS (sirf3 or 4 or etc)
Thanks

Thanks

Re: Future Hardware Support?
I have something else to add to this list. This http://www.pololu.com/catalog/product/1336 would make a good wireless link for Flowstone's serial port. With the built in IO, it would be a nice combo...

Re: Furure Hardware Support?
I think Flowstone must focus on popular hardware that is already used by other famous Daq softwares. For example:
- labjack U6
- ADAM modules 40XX series Please!!!!!!! (or 70XX from another manufacturers, that are 40XX compatible).

The Adams Modules are RS485 so are already supported in FlowStone!

Perhaps I am a bit pretentious, but...
Some top graphic programming software (in example, Dasylab) recognize RS485 itself in one way, "and" recognize ADAM modules on other more easy way: it has an icon for each model of ADAM modules to drag and drop on the design! It is useful to reduce configuration to a few clicks to set input ranges. Have in mind that there are projects that uses a lot of that modules at the same time, and its migration from one pc to another one may be not easy to make it ready to run.
Are there ADAM modules in the Flowstone's toolbox?

Re: Furure Hardware Support?
Hi gvalletto,
in flowstone you can create everything related with com, rs485, etc. Flowstone gave you creativity in design. I think we need to see from different perspective if we want to understand , please correct me if I am wrong
