Re: Progamming help with FSBus dll
So you have two fsbus programs you have to start, one running 2.0.0 and the other running 1.2.0? (I might seriously consider doing this)
Oh, also am I right in thinking that I can't program version 1.2.0 the way I've been programming version 2.0.0? (different programming language?)
How do you get around needing 2 serial ports? Do you have a card to provide that additional port?

No different language, only other funktion names.

On my Notebook i use a UBS to Serial converter. http://www.amazon.com/USB-RS232-Seri...303898&sr=8-13
Re: Progamming help with FSBus dll
Ok. Thanks
Hopefully Dirk will email me back with a response regarding 2.0.0 not working.
USB to serial converter work without any trouble?
Can you give me an example of different function names compared to version 2.

Absolutly no problems.

The object build is different, also some changes in the .h file. You need to compare both manuals.
Re: Progamming help with FSBus dll
Just had a quick read through the version 1 manual.
Very similar, but I can see some of the differences. At least I will only need to program for the steppers and not the rest.
Thanks again for your input Stefan.

Re: Progamming help with FSBus dll
Hi Stefan,
FSWeekend is next weekend isn't it?
When you are discussing with Dirk the dll v2 issue with the steppers, please also let Dirk know that I too am waiting on his response about V2 and that we have been working together quite a bit on this issue when you are talking to him (as well as many others are waiting on a resolution).
I am not going ahead with building a second com board and running as you have until I have an idea of whether Dirk feels this issue with V2 can be resolved quickly and easily.
If after you have spoken to him, you feel that this will not be resolved, then I will go with your solution with the second com card. I really look forward to clarity on whichever way to go with the steppers.
Hope you have a great time at FSWeekend. Wish Australia was a little closer. Sometimes it feels like Australia is so far away from the rest of the world that it may as well be on another planet.

Re: Progamming help with FSBus dll
Hi David,
yes FSweekend is from 06 - 07 November.
I try to talk with Dirk, at the moment i´m surprise Fsbus is in the Exhibitors list but not on the Floorplan.
The frustrating on that all is, last year on Fsweekend i talked with Dirk and we had the same topics. One year without any change.

Re: Progamming help with FSBus dll
Hi Stefan,
How did you go at FSWeekend?
Did you get to talk to Dirk?
Does he have a plan for correcting the stepper issue?
Thanks
