ZBasic Forum

Hi Don, Thanks very much for your kind offer, and I'd like to take you up on it. Unfortunately I've got the unit in service to receive information from a remote system which I'm commissioning. I wouldn't be able to free it up for another month. Can we return to the prospect of sending it to you then...

Many thanks for your suggestions. Yes, I'm not that familiar with programming with the API. However, I still haven't found any other way to get either the UDS1100 working with DTR, or the ATN-less downloading to work. I've been told that Perle make an ethernet to serial converter that does have good...

... What I found was that these do toggle DTR et al but don't do so with the timing accuracies assumed by the ZBasic IDE/downloader. I change the source code to the downloader and got some success. But at that time, this and other things triggered the DTR-less download option and that's worked reli...

Hi All, I'd like to ask advice on a problem similar to that reported by Don_Kirby about 12 months ago, whereby I have been trying to download to a ZX40 via a Lantronix UDS1100 serial-to-ethernet converter. After finding that the DTR just doesn't get handled by the Lantronix at all, I then went on to...

Hi All, Don, Thanks for your clear descriptions of the SPI workings. I've got a better understanding now and will look at how I can apply this to the SD Card issue. Tony, I'll study your API more closely. Thanks for pointing me to the appropriate parts. I've also had a closer look at those SD Card i...

Hi All, I'm clearly amongst a group of experts. Thanks very much for your helpful and detailed suggestions. Vic, I've checked out your suggested interface products at Sparkfun, and they look pretty interesting, particularly the interface module that uses the DOSOnChip IC. This chip is actually avail...

Hi All, I'm new to ZBasic and ZX processors, but have had a bit of experience with PICAXE chips in several previous projects. The ZBasic system looks very impressive and I'd really like to get an SD Card data logger system setup using the ZX40. I've read through most of the previous discussions on S...
