hi all! i'm new arduino, not new embedded systems development. past 22 years i've been corporate software engineer manager of software engineers. before that, going around 30 years, embedded systems engineer developed custom firmware in c, assembler, , ladder. i've dabbled in electronics hobby life, , passion has been low-level stuff, formal education , training , of career has been on corporate software development side. anyway, establish bonafides on development side... as arduino , modern turnkey microcontrollers, i'm newbie. i've got project idea in mind , wanted run of experts guidance. there exists devices, this one , designed monitor safes report remote server on regular basis things door openings, temperature, humidity, motion, vibration, internet connection, etc. can set thresholds on server generate alerts via sms or email. while $200 isn't extraordinarily expensive, compared cost of safe , contents, thought fun project replicate , possibly i...

i make indesign photo covers well. if wanted begin using ps (cs3) make photo covers more sophisticated, feature or technique use in ps or how steps making photo cover, using ps, final design in idcs. i know can use feathering in idcs want more sophisticated designs. thanks i use photoshop design graphic features can't done in indesign , build covers in indesign. photoshop not layout program!

does know of way in "full screen mode menu bar", still have windows taskbar being displayed? in cs2 xp, taskbar displayed in mode, in cs4 64 vista, unfortunately doesn't draw taskbar in mode anymore. i'm stuck in bad situation becuase *must* able see taskbar @ times , *must* able freely reposition image anywhere want on screen, , that's impossible right because of this... anyone know of hack around problem? thx. -seneca i'm having same problem.... cs3 worked fine , in cs4 hides systems tray, task bar, , windows start menu... know there "work arounds" people use wacom table of work , need on task bar... can't because it's hidden.... it'd nice have 1 please!

hi, before start have issue cleared. i did googled no satisfying result. two uno's doing 2 different tasks. one uno connected pc usb , sending data temperatures , force pc serial.print commands vb6 app. the second uno controlling steppermotor , needs receive serial data pc control steppermotor speed. i cant combine both tasks in 1 uno , not want 2 usb cables connected. so can connect in parallel 2 rx ports of both uno's data received uno usb connection send uno without usb connection? thanks thinking me. paco   if did connect them in parallel, plan ensure 1 board doesn't data belonging other board? paul Arduino Forum > Using Arduino > Project Guidance > Can I read two RX ports on two boards in parallel from one USB port arduino

hello les codeurs. je fait appel à vous, car j'ai un projet 18 tourelles d'un destroyer de la seconde guerre mondiale à animer. faire bouger les moteurs pas à pas n'est pas un problème. mais là, ça dépasse mes modestes compétences. chaque tourelle à sa propre direction au repos et sa propre grandeur d'angle. et certains moteurs pourront avoir une ou plusieurs tourelles. ça c'est la partie invariable. ce que je compte faire c'est de me servir d'un arduino pour envoyer des ordres aux autre cartes qui auront un ou plusieurs moteurs pas à pas à gérer suivant l'angle de rotation initial. chaque moteur aurait une buté en début et fin de course, qui va servir lors de la phase d'initialisation. dans l'idéal, à partir de cette initialisation, les données de sa position seraient enregistrés, pour qu'en suite soient programmé plusieurs ordres de rotation (simulation d'un combat). je comptais programmer au moins 4 programmes pour le contrôl...

salve, chiedo aiuto in quanto non riesco venir fuori da un problema: ho un arduino mega con gran parte delle porte occupate da una shield aggiuntiva. mi rimangono libere le porte dal 31 al 51 e vorrei collegare il classico display 2x16 del kit arduino per fornire due informazioni. ho fissato il display su un circuito parte con potenziometro e resistenza variabile, testato il tutto su arduino uno con seguenti pin liquidcrystal lcd(12, 11, 5, 4, 3, 2); e funziona. adesso vorrei cambiare pin e collegarlo su quello che mi rimangono libere su arduino mega. ma ottengo soltanto quadratini lcd(39, 40, 41, 42, 433, 38). chiedo aiuto. grazie cross-posting vietato da regolamento. ti invitiamo presentarti (dicci quali conoscenze hai di elettronica e di programmazione) qui: presentazioni e leggere il regolamento se non lo hai già fatto: regolamento qui una serie di link utili, non inerenti al tuo problema: - qui una serie di schede xxxpighi per collegamenti elettronic...
