Thread: Fusion Brain Version 6 -- Beta Testing

Yeah, latest update killed it. I still have all the old versions though. It drives my RGB led strip perfectly (in hyperterminal), I am installing that in my dash now, can't wait till I can actually control it properly!

killed it? how?

If it just didn't work at all, then perhaps the file was corrupted. I just uploaded a fresh update file.

well it crashed the first time but now I'm able to create buttons. Any way I can make buttons to change the PWM freq yet??? It works so well in hyperterminal, but I need to control this.

It has been available since the first release, but not in the configuration GUI yet like most things. It is easier to implement features then implement a way to initialize the features.

You can use the GUI to make the button code that toggles one fully on or off. Then exit config mode, and close the program. Open the config file in notepad or any XML/Text editor. Look for your button which will look like this with your name in it:

Code:

  <User_Object type="FuseGL_Object">
    <setting type="string" name="Digital Output Test Button Toggle" />
    <image location="internal" path="FuseGL.Configurator.Configurator_IMG_Resources.BaseButton" />
    <image_hover location="internal" path="FuseGL.Configurator.Configurator_IMG_Resources.BaseButtonHover" />
    <image_click location="internal" path="FuseGL.Configurator.Configurator_IMG_Resources.BaseButtonHover" />
    <text text="Unknown State" />
    <setting type="bool" mouse_cursor_to_hand_on_hover="true" />
    <size width="200" height="33" />
    <location x="100" y="200" z="0" alignment="center" />
    <events>
      <startup action="FuseGL.ExecuteCode" inputArgs="ChangeTextOnDigitalOutputChange.cs;FuseGL_TextManipulation.InternalFlyCompile_ChangeTextOnDigitalOutputChange;ChangeButtonTextOnDigitalOutputPersistant;{FB.DigitalOutput(0.10)};{this.text};FLY Digital Output ON; FLY Digital Output OFF;" outputTo="this.text.text" />
      <onMouseDown action="FB.ToggleDigitalOutput" inputArgs="Port:0.10" />
    </events>
  </User_Object>

then edit the line that says:

Code:

<onMouseDown action="FB.ToggleDigitalOutput" inputArgs="Port:0.10" />

to

Code:

<onMouseDown action="FB.ChangeDigitalOutput" inputArgs="Port:0.10;Value:XXX" />

and replace XXX with a value between 255 and 0. So to make it 50% duty, make it say:

Code:

<onMouseDown action="FB.ChangeDigitalOutput" inputArgs="Port:0.10;Value:127" />

Just updated, deleted trace file. If I:
1 Open Fuse GL
2 Hit F10
3. click to configure
4. right click anywhere

I get a crash (windows popup 'FuseGL has stopped working" select close program - no trace file is created.

You must change the FB index to 0 for the first one, 1 for the second one, and so on. Order is as determined in the text file.

Lightning just struck & I figured out "Port:0.10" means instance 0, port 10. DUH

Ok, I see that. I added a line in there that basically says "crash the program" and give me an exception telling me to implement this feature. So when I did it in dev land, I get a nice box that tells me this is implemented and pauses. It will just crash and burn for you. I removed that, and will upload an update shortly.

Yup indeed. Sorry, I didn't explain that better.

Problems I'm having after update:

- If I try to create a temp sensor, degrees F does not work but Celsius does. When I create the Celsius sensor, are there suppose to be titles for each dialog that pops up? It gives me a numeric OSK but I don't know what it wants. Also if I click OK while nothing is entered it crashes.

- If I try to create a variable, the next dialog that pops up is just a "go-back" button and when clicks is just exits out.

- It also crashes on me when I right-click during configure mode

Looking forward to logic!
