Tibbo

Hi,

I am using the stor object on the EM1202 to store equipment data (model number, serial number, IP, port, firmware revision etc) in EEPROM. This is fine as I can store and recall all the data as strings.

However, I now want to store a whole set of values from a 10-bit A-to-D converter into EEPROM. I have the values in 16-bit word variables and want to store them to EEPROM as 2-bytes each, but stor.setdata and stor.getdata accept strings only. If I convert to strings using the hex function, I end up using minimum 4-bytes, or double the space!

Can anyone suggest how I can easily write/read these values in only 2-bytes each?

Thanks.

Hi,

I have been using BasicMicro Stamp and Atom controller(s) for many years and have just switched to the EM1202 for the first time in a project. I have found it a great product, but there appears to be a huge omission in terms of programming - individual bit manipulation within byte/word/long variables. Unless I am missing something, there appears to be no easy way of doing this?

In a previous Atom application I used a 32-bit variable as a "register" to record 32 pass/fail criteria. There is facility in Atom Basic to simply turn individual bits in the variable on or off or use them in operations. You can also separate out any byte of a 16 or 32-bit variable and carry out many other bitwise operations. I can find no way to do these simply in Tibbo Basic.

I have a work-around by converting the variable to a 32-character binary string representation, manipulating the characters in the string, then converting back to a 32-bit variable. This is VERY slow at processing.

Am I missing something? If not, PLEASE can we have full bitwise operations in the next release? The Atom was superb at this, so please consult their manual for ideas! There is a whole range of operations I simply can't find a way of doing on the EM1202.

Hello,i have a problem that i need help with.

When network adapter of laptop is configured as Auto mode the tibbo is visible via DS manager and works fine but when i try to change it to full duplex mode i lose tibbo completely
on the network.
The customer transfered from half to full duplex network and now all comunication with tibbo have stopped.

why is the EM202 currently unavailable?

Will it be available in future?

Some questions:
- Do you intend to introduce AES encryption?
It is really annoying that I cannot make secure data exchange.

- Another one: when will be wide strings introduced?
Will be sock.httprqstring's type modified to widestring? Other way it doesn't have sense using sock.varbuffrq(2) or sock.varbuffrq(3) if I cannot get access to more, than the first 255 bytes of the variable.

- And a last one: If I make a html form on Tibbo EM-1000 with post method although it works in IE, it won't in Firefox. I know that it is curious but I tested on different PC-s. Please someone try it. (A note: Taiko doc is talking about using post method in "Working with HTTP Variables" section but the source uses "get", same as the provided "08-html_login_1".)
