Hi, I am trying to use the tools module pyboard.py with idle3 and it does seem to work but with a couple of weird things going on. See interactive session below: Python 3.4.3 (default, Nov 17 2016, 01:11:57) [GCC 4.8.4] on linux Type "copyright", "credits" or "license()" for more information. >>> im...

Hi, And thanks for the responses. The frequency range of the device (Taos TS238 Light-Frequency converter) is ~6hz (dark) to ~500khz. The application is for a cheap photometer that i found here (https://hackaday.com/2015/08/11/simple-cheap-nitrate-tester-is-open-source/). The original design makes u...

Hi,
I have an arduino program that counts the frequency of a light to frequency converter and i wish to do this project with the pyboard - does a library exist to do this. if not what is the best aproach.

Any help is much apreciated.

Cheers.

Hi, I have an esp8266 that i want to use to connect to local wifi. I was going to use the CC3000 breakout board, as a mycropython module exists (CC3K) however this board seems difficult to get a hold of, is not as good as/more expensive than the esp8266. The version i have is the esp8266-01 - just h...

Hi, This is brilliant - your effort on this is much apreciated. I suppose the next question is (given that i am very new to micropython and the pyboard and am only really a beginner programmer in python); What is the hardware requirement/general aproach to get this to work. We have a couple of optio...

Hi,
And thanks for the reply - yes an r232 converter did the trick - i am now getting the correct information back. Thanks for all your help.

Did you come across any further information on the ability of micropython to do FTP? Is it worth putting this up as a separate question on the forum?

Cheers.

Hi, Re ultrasonic sensor: The unit is an maxbotix mb7360 and the data sheet indicates the following; The sensor has an RS232 data format (with 0V to Vcc levels) The output is an ASCII capital "R" followed by 4 ASCII character digits representing the range in mm followed by a cariage return (ASCII 13...

Hi,
And thanks for you replies - i will try the possible solutions and let you know how i get on.

Cheers.

Hi, And thanks for the reply. I agree that you dont neccesarily need a fully flegded IDE however i did fnd something called pymakr (https://www.pycom.io/solutions/pymakr/) which looks quite good. Currently running micropython on the standard pybaord V1.1. and i think its a really impressive peice of...

Hi, I am new to micropython and the pyboard (i come from a arduino background). I have a had a bit of a play with it via the getting started tutorial and i think its fantastic and could easily replace a lot of the stuff i currently do with arduino. Is there a micropython IDE that would run under lin...
