Hi Peter Could you please consider the following request for additional functions; MM.INFO(SSID$) returns the currently connected SSID as a string MM.INFO(RSSI) returns the currently connected SSID’s RSSI as an integer These would complement and work in the same vein as MM.INFO(ip address). Many thanks Cheers Carl Retirement is tough on Hobbies without a day job |

Hi Peter, I have noticed the divide by zero error is not well implemented in PicoMite V5.09.00RC5 See this program: a=100 b=0 Do Text 0,0,Str$(a/b) Loop When run on a PicoMite (non-VGA) with LCD display attached (in my case a SSD1306I2C32, but I have also seen this on the GEEK board that has an SPI LCD) the initial error is correct (divide by zero). But (due to the loop probably) the conseccutive errors are Display Not Configured, until it crashes (reboots). > run [4] Text 0,0,Str$(a/b) Error : Divide by zero [4] Text 0,0,Str$(a/b) Error : Display not configured [4] Text 0,0,Str$(a/b) Error : Display not configured [4] Text 0,0,Str$(a/b) Error : Display not configured [4] Text 0,0,Str$(a/b) Error : Display not configured [4] Text 0,0,Str$(a/b) Error : Display not configured [4] Text 0,0,Str$(a/b) Error : Display not configured [4] Text 0,0,Str$(a/b) Error : Display not configured [4] Text 0,0,Str$(a/b) Error : Display not configured [4] Text 0,0,Str$(a/b) Error : Display not configured [4] Text 0,0,Str$(a/b) Error : Display not configured [4] Text 0,0,Str$(a/b) Error : Display not configured [4] Text 0,0,Str$(a/b) Error : Display not configured [4] Text 0,0,Str$(a/b) Error : Display not configured Error: Invalid address - resetting I have MMBasic statements in my code to prevent the program from from crashing, but it would be nice to fix this error handling... Volhout P.S. just to place things in perspective. I found this developping my LC meter. Since you connect to unknown components an accidental divide by zero could happen. And it starts an avalanche (the error and associated RESET remove the OPTION AUTORUN 1 from the option list, meaning that the test instrument does not work anymore, and needs to connect to a PC to install OPTION AUTORUN 1 again). So I littered the program with non-zero checks, just to make sure there is no error. Edited 2024-07-16 17:13 by Volhout PicomiteVGA PETSCII ROBOTS |

Your example output makes no sense. The divide by zero error stops the program so how is the loop continuing? Also, remember you can use OPTION AUTORUN n/ON/OFF [,noreset] Edited 2024-07-16 20:33 by matherp |

Thanks for the tip, will implement it. About the output: yes it makes no sense, but regardless above is what I see, running the exact above program. > option list PicoMite MMBasic Version 5.09.00RC5 OPTION SYSTEM I2C GP26,GP27 OPTION AUTORUN 1 OPTION COLOURCODE ON OPTION LCDPANEL SSD1306I2C32, RLANDSCAPE When run from the commandline (no loop to repeat, no run) > option list PicoMite MMBasic Version 5.09.00RC5 OPTION SYSTEM I2C GP26,GP27 OPTION AUTORUN 1,NORESET OPTION COLOURCODE ON OPTION LCDPANEL SSD1306I2C32, RLANDSCAPE > text 0,0,str$(1/0) Error : Divide by zero Error : Display not configured > I have no idea where the "Display not configured" comes from.

Hi Peter, I have done some more testing: The GEEK (PicoMite with SPI display) works correct. The PicoMiteVGA works correct. The Thermal Imager (ILI9341) does not show the problem, or it would have creashed during my development constantly. The PicoMite with I2C display on system I2C bus shows the 'Display not configured". It could be related to I2C displays? Or the SSD1306I2C32 (128x32). At home I have a SSD1306I2C, that is the larger version 128x64. I can try tonight if that one also shows the problem.

Out of interest please try the attached with the I2C display PicoMite.zip |

Hi Peter, I configured the SSD1306I2C without the actual SSD1306 (128x64) display, and noticed it is not showing the "Display not configured" error. Then (also without the actual display attached, I configured SSD1306I2C32 and it showed the error message. I seems related to 1 specific display. And it shows regardless if the actual display is attached or not. Then I tried your uf2 file, and that one erased all options. And after installing the SSD1306I2C32 display the error message "Display not configured" is gone. It feels like this version solves the issue. Was the SSD1306I2C32 display not connected to the error output ? So the code wanted to output the "divide by zero" error message, but had no pipe to send it to ? Causing a second error... Thank you, Harm Edited 2024-07-16 22:20 by Volhout PicomiteVGA PETSCII ROBOTS |

With what? The operation seems exactly as I would expect. |

Hi Peter I was picking up similar issues on my one WebMite. Thought to try Harm's test on the other WebMIte to see if it was related to the display its self, but apparently not. I swopped displays and it's still working correctly. Harm didn't mention testing it on a Webmte so I thought to round out the list, albeit with different hardware. The issues I had last year with F2 or nowadays even with run causing problems seems to have escalated, but it seems to be linked to when changes have been made to the code; but not the changes themselves. The perennial ADC error message and nowadays an occasional end sub encountered without corresponding sub. Resetting the WebMite and then reconnecting to the USB port clears up the issue on the first or second retry cycle. I know I'm on a Mac etc. If you want I can screen grab and post the console, which looks very similar to what Harm was experiencing. The problems I was having with the webpage refresh rate last year has resolved itself through using the TCP Send and rolling my own HTTP and JSON string response on a 2s refresh currently. Anything relating to high refresh rate (1-10s) and relying on the {} of serving a page with content isn't stable. I tried writing the JSON string as a file on the Drive and then serving it through the Page server from the Drive file, which improved the stability but not significantly so. "Casual" usage of a webpage on an ad hoc basis seems to work fine. Cheers Carl Retirement is tough on Hobbies without a day job |

Prompted by a comment from Stanley, Ive added the map command and function to the PicoMiteVGA and PicoMiteVGAUSB based on the CMM2 functionality (see the CMM2 manual). Load up the new firmware and run the following: PicoMiteVGA.zip ' Set up an array to hold the colour mappings we are going to use Dim integer cmap(6) 'Clear the screen MODE 2 Map reset CLS 'Set up 6 colours in the array cmap(1)=RGB(red) cmap(2)=RGB(green) cmap(3)=RGB(blue) cmap(4)=RGB(yellow) cmap(5)=RGB(magenta) cmap(6)=RGB(cyan) ' Do an initial update of the Colour map to set up our colours domap 'Display an outer circle in white Circle MM.HRes/2,MM.VRes/2,MM.VRes/2-1,0,,RGB(white),RGB(white) ' Now draw a simple colour pie chart using our new colours with the ARC command Arc MM.HRes/2,MM.VRes/2,0,MM.VRes/2-3,0,30,Map(1) Arc MM.HRes/2,MM.VRes/2,0,MM.VRes/2-3,30,60,Map(2) Arc MM.HRes/2,MM.VRes/2,0,MM.VRes/2-3,60,90,Map(3) Arc MM.HRes/2,MM.VRes/2,0,MM.VRes/2-3,90,120,Map(4) Arc MM.HRes/2,MM.VRes/2,0,MM.VRes/2-3,120,150,Map(5) Arc MM.HRes/2,MM.VRes/2,0,MM.VRes/2-3,150,180,Map(6) Arc MM.HRes/2,MM.VRes/2,0,MM.VRes/2-3,180,210,Map(1) Arc MM.HRes/2,MM.VRes/2,0,MM.VRes/2-3,210,240,Map(2) Arc MM.HRes/2,MM.VRes/2,0,MM.VRes/2-3,240,270,Map(3) Arc MM.HRes/2,MM.VRes/2,0,MM.VRes/2-3,270,300,Map(4) Arc MM.HRes/2,MM.VRes/2,0,MM.VRes/2-3,300,330,Map(5) Arc MM.HRes/2,MM.VRes/2,0,MM.VRes/2-3,330,360,Map(6) ' Start a never ending loop Do cmap(0)=cmap(6) For i=5 To 0 Step -1 cmap(i+1)=cmap(i) Next domap Pause 400 Loop Sub domap Local integer i Map (0)=RGB(brown) For i=1 To 6 Map (i)=cmap(i) Next Map set End Sub  Edited 2024-07-25 02:52 by matherp |

Hi Peter, Can you explain what the difference is between the Map(I) as function, and an array Map() in this application.? Is the to avoid DIM ing an array Map(6), or using Map reset.? Thanks for the explanation. Volhout Edited 2024-07-25 05:53 by Volhout PicomiteVGA PETSCII ROBOTS |

The map( function returns a 24-bit RGB value that will pick up the slot that you have specified a colour for so: MAP(1)=rgb(brown) map set Will cause any "normally" blue pixels to turn brown. In order to then use a drawing command with the brown colour use the map(1) function as the colour This should be obvious in the example. This is how the CMM2 does it using a H/W colour lookup table (CLUT) whereas the PicoMite does it in the VGA driver in S/W. NB: this functionality is only available at CPU speeds of 252 and 378 MHz |
