Re: UDP from ESP8266 to MegunoLink Pro

Joe, I have three ESP8266 remote nodes working, two very reliable and one does drop out occasionally. The occasional dropout is an Adafruit Huzzah Feather and I think the deep sleep mode conflicts with the automatic switch to upload mode used by the Feather. A couple of times a week, the Feather loc...

UDP from ESP8266 to MegunoLink Pro

I'm in the midst of developing a temperature monitor on the ESP8266 (ESP-12E) and using UDP to send data to a TimePlot on MegunoLink. The ESP8266 is a fussy chip and I have three that don't work any more. The one that I'm working with now is an ESP-12E with a breadboard adapter. I have a Dallas DS18...

Re: How to use a text box for display only.

Yep. Just open the designer, select your text box and use the property window on the left side to set the background and foreground colors. Both are in the Appearance group. You can change the font size too Paul. I,d like to see dynamic change, a color attribute in the "SetText(ControlName, Val...

Re: How to use a text box for display only.

I would also like to see a color change option for text boxes. I searched through all the documentation but couldn't find it. However, since this is derived from Visual Studio, I think it is quite reasonable to do.

Re: Dual thermometer with display and plot

TEMPin13.jpg I had a problem with my old XP laptop and this is a migration to a very nice Hannspree (10") with an HP 22" external monitor. The new laptop is Windows 7 and a bit of a learning curve. However, the Arduino/Megunolink apps migrated very easily. The dual temp is currently track...

I've expanded the pin 13 program to measure two temperatures with DS18B20 sensors and plot the results over time.

Re: Simple Digital Pin Control

I now have an explanation of the program. I wrote it with WordPad and copied the screen captures as .bmp files. This created a two page document which is 7.7 megabytes large.

Simple Digital Pin Control

Ok, my pin control is working. The PC side of this is an MLP program which has two radio buttons and a text box. The function of the radio buttons is to send commands to the Arduino Uno and the Uno interprets these and sets or clears pin 13. Then the Arduino notifies the MLP text box of the current ...
