Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

All part of Beta testing - don't despair, sagt3k.

If you would like a free E64 module(assembled) to play with for the purposes of helping you with this software you are developing, flick me a PM.

Thanks Grogster
Matherp... anyway, In form console there is a combobox "capture/log off". If you choose "capture on" and after goto in BIN sheet and check "auto-refresh" we can see what happen.

I can't find an auto-refresh checkbox - which page is it on?

Hi Matherp
I confirm that to send/receive the code, first send 0x03 and later 0x0D 0x0A, and wait after 0x0D 0x0A 0x3E 0x20 as in image ...

Everything works in the console window: memory, list etc.

The problem is that nothing works in the code window - I just get the "not connected" error

Hi Matherp
I've managed to mount an 64 pin to program it and connect it to the USB direct all OK. I have Windows 64bit (10.0.14393ITA). I also tried to change region and other parameters. All right.

... or we can do this test. Just get connected CONSOLE (with green light) and try this script...
...Go on SCRIPT to create a new one
, choose PascalScript and

...write the code ...and start the code

after goto to the SHEET script messages ...

Here the code .. and the image of SCRIPT module ...

Var S,Str:String; IDuart:Integer;
I:Integer;
Begin
UARTconsoleSendStr(#3#13#10,20);
While Not ScriptStopped do
Begin
S:=UARTconsoleGetStr;
if S<>'' then
Begin
Println(S);
Println('');
For I:=1 to Length(S) do
Println('byte='+Format('%2.2x',[Ord(S)]));
End;
End;
UARTclose(IDuart)
End.

It works OK here with a CP2102 and a 64pin (explore64) on W10 64bit

I will try and test with a 100pinner (snadpic) later.

I have narrowed it down to my Prolific USB to serial adapter.
These don't work with W10 unless you go back to and older Win7 driver. I have been using them OK with everything else but MicroMiteLab wont load code with them.

The FTDI USB adapter works OK with MicroMiteLab.

Gerry

@Gerry,
Prolific did a few strange things in an attempt to combat fake chips. It has caused many issues, just like FTDI.

I have fired up my 100pinner with the CP2102 converter and it all works happily.
@Peter, The Silicon Lab driver I am using is version 6.7.3.350, 28/03/2016

I did the tests on the 100pinner without any peripherals connected.

Question:
How do you load (and save) a program from disk into the editor?

Hi TassyJim

Then there would be a problem to import or export code. I have planned for the application an internal database. In fact if you go to see there is a ".usr" file that keeps everything inside. The application is designed for portable use. The code could retrieve it from outside through copy / paste. But I planned to export with "export code" as external file or that as soon as I put on the Cloud Service.
The encrypted files maintains a paternity, It maintains, what kind of code is which platform is designed etc. Type the example I posted on the site. The Cloud and the services (will be free) and I am putting on a sort of "dweet.io", "mySQL free" and other services that will dialogue with the application. After the project will extend to other platforms including Mac, iOS and Android.

MicromiteLab is fully compatible with Linux/Debian through WINE.
For now in TCP / client, I just have to solve the problem of convert and read the regedit/wine and communicate properly with /dev/ttyUSBx in COMx.

I had this "bad behavior" experience when starting up. This information page didn't close and remained as the top of the application, in fact on top of any application I opened even the browser and the backshed page I started to write this report. I could not close the Microlab application normally i had to use the task manager.
I am using Windows 10.

@Gerry and all Prolific users:

Did you tried this Family Software Driver?

This driver worked for my Win10 computer...

Hi Frank,

I have this downgraded driver installed, it works for other things, but MicroMiteLab wont load code using it, but console is good, same situation as reported by Peter but not sure if he has ProLific drivers or not.
Thanks for the link, it is a bit simpler than the path I initially took to get the downloaded driver to stick.

Regards
Gerry
