Re: Sudden Change in Yocto Behavior During Firmware Debuggin

Oh wow, I am an idiot. Dear Diyer, Here are the Yocto Arduino code and libraries. Yocto_2_0.rar Library.rar You need to use Arduino IDE and change buffer length in Wire library to 128 (in the both file twi.h and wire.h) You can use a USB to serial interface connected to program the Atmega 1284p with...

Re: Sudden Change in Yocto Behavior During Firmware Debuggin

Some updates: I had plugged in a SPI EEPROM in place of the I2C EEPROM during a period of experimentation. Replacing this with the correct I2C EEPROM got me some functionality back. Drugs are bad, kids. Despite this, the CB, CY, OH, CH, TR1, TR2, and TR3 are always hitting every step for every patte...

Sudden Change in Yocto Behavior During Firmware Debugging

Hello kind people! I've been working on code to correct the "pushing multiple step buttons during edit mode does weird things" bug, and I think I've fixed it . However, I've run into a bit of a snag. This morning when I turned the Yocto on via the standard 15VAC power inlet to triple-check...

I've been doing my debugging in a very crude way, by lighting up LED's. Using the serial port must be much nicer.
Thanks!

Re: Serial Communication from the Yocto

I've figured it out with a good guess and a multimeter. The pair of pins next to the SPI header are the serial RX/TX lines. You can get serial out from the ATmega1284 on the Yocto that way. Using an Arduino Uno to read serial from the Yocto: https://i.imgur.com/TflE7aU.png Make the connections descr...

Serial Communication from the Yocto

Hello everyone, How are you firmware development folks getting information from the ATmega1284 on the Yocto to your development computers? Looking at the Yocto board, there's no easy way to attach wires to either of the two serial ports on the MCU. However, looking over the source code, one can see ...

Re: Official Yocto BUGS list

It doesn't really matter at the point.

For what it's worth, I do plan on merging jvq's expander mode fix into my github project.

Re: Maracas volume

You're better off reducing the value of R340. Start with 10k and see what happens.

I wonder why your MA is so much louder than your HC to begin with. Perhaps something else is wrong...

Re: Official Yocto BUGS list

Hi ppl. Seems to be a "dead end" here... nobody taking care of bugs, nobody doing some corrections/fixed on the code... Did Vincent give up? that doesn't matter, but i think it was clear that the firmware is abandoned long ago Well, it somehow matters to me that the originator of this pre...
