Arduino based VDI!

[andon80]

craftsmen primarily for sharing such nice information thanks to you all I want to do and for that matter I audion VDI have no idea which version do you recommend to me and my country if I share a site should get an audion and help the lcd, and audion and how it should be done, and the lcd is most effectively wave circuit how do I link already thenks...?

Hello,

can everyone post (or send pm to me) pictures from both sides of the ready build pcb for the arduino?

[Daren]

@Prospekteur: I'm not sure what PCB you are referring to, I assume its opamp board as all others are "off the shelf"; I will look if I have a picture of the bottom side that I built; I know I have top (already posted). I have the board glued into the box, so I can't take it out.. If I find it I'll post it in few days (away from home now....)

[Prospekteur]

I need the top and bottom side of the attached pcb;-)

[Daren]

Yeah, that's the one I meant. I'll look.

This all good stuff, fairly sure it will go onto any simple 2 ch machine, idx

I would have liked to be able to code better, Im just not wired that way, I think in pictures and write in crayon

Chuckle. It is impressive. currently trying to wrap my head around the PIC24FJGC006 for a project. Way overkill for a VDI, but looks like I should be able to do a minimal part device with it, since it has two built in
opamps, 3 comparators, a 12 bit 10 million samples a second ADC. But boy, it is a complex bugger. Started trying to get one up Friday. I *really* need my wirewrap tool, but don't know where it is.

Sorry, I checked. I don't have the bottom view of this board.

VDI Arduino project I2C version of LiquidCrystal library

There were questions about the missing I2C LCD lib.
Here is LiquidCrystal_I2C.zip library used by the VDI Arduino project. It is required to the I2C LCD to work.
To install it extract the zip (preserving dirs) to Arduino's library directory; (C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\libraries on my system)
There maybe a newer versions of it on the web. This is the one that was used with the project.

Hello,

Ive finished the Arduino VDI. I have a proplem. Upload examples as HelloWorld work fine. But uploading the MD_V13 programm shows encoder errors. For example "Encoder.cpp:102: error: `ms´ was not declared in this scope.
What does that mean??? Have anyone an idea?

Regards

Prospekteur

[Daren]

Did you download and installed LiquidCrystal_I2C.zip posted few posts above? The "ms" is MenusSystem defined in "menu.cpp".

[Prospekteur]

I had downloaded it. I have these errors:

"MenuSystem does not name a type"

"Encoder.cpp:102: error: `ms´ was not declared in this scope"

MenuSystem arduino library

Here is MenuSystem arduino library that is used by Arduino VDI. You install it by extracting it to you Arduino library directory. (For example: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\libraries" on 64 bit OS or to : "C:\Program Files\Arduino\libraries" on 32 bits OS). This will fix your problem.

MenuSystem.zip

Arduino VDI is using two libraries that don't come with Arduino (but you can find them on the web). Now both of them have been posted to this thread. Please use the posted versions.

Thats great Daren ;-) Now the programm works without errors! Thanks a lot Daren....and thanks a lot to Silver_Dollar too, you helped me so much. Yesterday I had a lot of frustrating hours, but i have learned a lot too. Now i will upload the programm to Arduino and test the Vdi that i have build the last days on the Tgsl;-)

Great Forum and great people here!

Hello,

i have upload the programm without errors. But the Dsplay shows only black cursors when i tune up the contrast. I have the LiquidCristal2IC library installed. I testet "LiquidCrystal Hello World" and it works perfect. Now i testet "LiquidCrystal2IC Hello world" and it shows only the black cursors after tune up contrast again. I think its the wrong Display. In the Sourcecode of the Arduino Vdi is mentioned to use LquidCrystal library not LiquidCrystal2IC library for other Displays. Can i change the Sourcecode that it works with my Display?

[bernte_one]

Hallo

can you upload a Picture of your Setup
(reply click Go Advanced button)

did you use i2c connection from arduino to lcd or did you use the classic 16pin connector?

which Kind of Display you use
1602lcd (use library lyquid Crystal h)
or the Nokia display
