a pulse in place of level hi or low...
Hi.
I use FS2Phidget now for weeks. It works very well since I installed XP pro SP2. I have only some problems (Runtime errors) when my kit 8/8/8 is connected. but when my 0/16/16 and 0/0/4 are connected... it works very well.
my question is :
I control a lock allowing the gear retractation when a/C is airborn (offset 366).
this lock is actuated by a solenoid. but it needs only a pulse (0/12V) to toggle the position Lock/Unlock)
I use a 0/0/4 to control this solenoid (0/12V) trough 2 inputs : one for locking, one for unlocking when a pulse is sended.
If I maintain a constant level, because I don't know how generate a pulse with FS2Phidget, the solenoid becomes very hot..... too hot
any suggestions ???
thanks

Hi Alan
First of all, thank you very much for your work, improving your software by
usingmost of forum comments.
I am presently on the french riviera (back to my roots !!!!) working in the garden and
finishing restoration of my lovely Land Rover !!! I am far from simulators !!!!
I will be back in my lab on september, 5th... then I wil try the last version on monday,
with - of course - the Pulse Function.....
I keep you in touch
Thank you very much
Vincent
Pulse works... thanks... but
Hi alan,
Thanks for your last implementation of pulses generator. it works fine for my
gear lever latch... V1... Rotate.... clack !!! gear up.... like the real one.
But..
My software is never running longer than 5- 15 minutes. I have to disconnect
the USB hub and to reconnect it... then start again for 5- 15 minutes !!!!
I have 2 phidgets 16/16/0 and 2 x 8/8/8.... I have Win XP SP2 and WideFS and I have installed the last phidget20.msi( Last Revision Date: October 3, 2005 Phidget.DLL version 2.0.8 & Phidget20.DLL version 1.0.5)
In the phidget folder I have Phidget.dll, phidget20.dll & PhidgetWebService.
The message is allways :
"Runtime Error '-2147418113 (8000ffff)';
Method '~' of object '~' failed
"
Do I need a specific .Net version ? I think I will format the disk and I will install WinXP again???
any suggestion ?
