Thread: Problems Initializing FB

Hi I'm writing a program with c# to interface with the FB as part of my final year project for university. I have written two programs one using FusionUSB.dll and the other using FusionBrain_WinUSB.dll

My code for the FusionBrain_WinUSB.dll drivers is:

Code:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using FusionBrain_WinUSB;

namespace ConsoleApplication2
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            //holds list of devices found
            List <string> ver3 = null, ver4 = null;

            bool deviceFound = FusionBrain_WinUSB.MainUSBClass.FindAllDevices(ref ver3,ref ver4);
            Console.WriteLine("Device Found : " + deviceFound);
            
            for (int i = 0; i <= 5; i++)
            {
                bool myDevice = FusionBrain_WinUSB.MainUSBClass.FindMyDevice(i, 4);
                Console.WriteLine("Device Found " + i + " : " + myDevice);
            }
                                    
        }
    }
}

and my code for FusionUSB.dll drivers is

Code:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using System.Timers;

namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
    class Program
    {
        public const int analogueInput = 32;
        public const int endOfAnalogueInput = 57;
            
        public const int digitalInput = 0;
        public const int endOfDigitalInput = 31;
        
        public static class FusionUSB
        {

            [DllImport("FusionUSB.dll")]
            public static extern bool FUSB_Initialize(ref UInt32 pFusionUSB, String deviceID, UInt32 instanceNumber);

            [DllImport("FusionUSB.dll")]
            public static extern bool FUSB_Receive(UInt32 pFusionUSB, byte[] buffer);

            [DllImport("FusionUSB.dll")]
            public static extern bool FUSB_Send(UInt32 pFusionUSB, byte[] buffer);

            [DllImport("FusionUSB.dll")]
            public static extern UInt32 FUSB_Free(ref UInt32 pFusionUSB);

            [DllImport("FusionUSB.dll")]
            public static extern bool FUSB_printf(UInt32 pFusionUSB);

            [DllImport("FusionUSB.dll")]
            public static extern UInt32 FUSB_GetWinUSBerror(UInt32 pFusionUSB);

            [DllImport("FusionUSB.dll")]
            public static extern UInt32 FUSB_GetFUSBstatus(UInt32 pFusionUSB);

            [DllImport("FusionUSB.dll")]
            public static extern String FUSB_GetDeviceInstanceID(UInt32 pFusionUSB);

        }


        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            UInt32 instanceNumber = 0;
            
            const UInt32 NULL = 0;
            
            UInt32 pFusionUSB = NULL;
            
            byte[] ReadBuffer = new byte[64];
            byte[] WriteBuffer = new byte[64];
                        
            // from mdx source code       
            //string deviceID = @"USB\VID_04D8&PID_000C\";
            
            //full path from my devices
            //string deviceID = @"USB\VID_04D8&PID_000E\5&327F1E4E&0&1";
            
            //root of vid & pid path from my devices
            string deviceID = @"USB\VID_04D8&PID_000E\";
           
            try
            {
                
                bool connected = FusionUSB.FUSB_Initialize(ref pFusionUSB, deviceID, instanceNumber);
                
                Console.WriteLine("Connected :" + connected );

                if (connected)
                {
                    bool sent = FusionUSB.FUSB_Send(pFusionUSB, WriteBuffer);
                    bool read = FusionUSB.FUSB_Receive(pFusionUSB, ReadBuffer);
                    
                    Console.WriteLine("Data Sent :" + sent);
                    Console.WriteLine("Data Received :" + read);

                    //read in analogue inputs
                    if (read)
                    {
                        int a = Console.Read();
                        while (a != 0)
                        {
                            for (int i = analogueInput; i <= endOfAnalogueInput; i += 2)
                            {
                                Console.WriteLine("Sensor " + i + " : " + ReadBuffer[i] + "," + ReadBuffer[i + 1]);
                            }
                            a = Console.Read();
                        }
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        Console.WriteLine("No Input");
                    }

                }
                else
                {
                    Console.WriteLine("Fusion Debug");
                    FusionUSB.FUSB_printf(pFusionUSB);
                                  
                }
               
               uint released = FusionUSB.FUSB_Free(ref pFusionUSB);
               Console.WriteLine("Release code :" + released );

            }
            catch (DllNotFoundException)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("FusionUSB.dll Not Found");
            }
        }

        static void clock_Elapsed(object sender, ElapsedEventArgs e)
        {
            throw new NotImplementedException();
        }
    }
}

I can't figure out why neither of these work, I have been working using the MDX code as a guide, and have followed it closely and still nothing works. I am using windows xp with FBv4 and can see the FB in my devices.

Could someone please help?

Thanks
Jeff
