example code ??

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MOTORWARE

Ok, Can I get an example?

I have seriously looked for over 3 days now. And I can't get anyone to quite understand and tell me what I need to do.

All I would like to do is create a simple GUI to do some simple things for starters. For example, all the motorware gui examples show a binding to a global variable. Lets look at some simple things, such as stop, go, CC, and CCW.

All the GUI's have it but I have found no examples of what the name of the global variable is, so that I can find it in the code and attach to it. I am using TI's code. Better yet, is there a list of them?

Perhaps even which code file or header I could find them in.

Much Thanks,

David

  • Hi David,

    have you looked at GUI Composer?

  • Hi Lisa,

    Yes, I have seen them all, and downloaded them all for review. All of them sort of miss the point. One engineer got rather pissed at me where he assumed I was designing my own GUI. I am not. I really don't know what the big secret is. If I had some way of attaching screen images it might make it clearer for everyone. An example is, every one of your GUI's have some way, generally via a click box to enable the motors. All I have been asking is what global variable does it attach to so I can use it in the new GUI (new as in it new to me, and using GUI composer) I just want to reuse these for a demo of our own making. One for making it go cc and ccw. They have a dial on your demo GUI that does that, just want to know what global variable it is binded to, that's all. Nick was the closest in his answer, but he only gave me one. I have done a search in CCS and it doesn't find global's at least by searching by "g_"  I'm sorry I didn't mean for this to be such a mess. I thought that promoting your GUI use was a good thing. I'm sorry that I don't know what the names of the control global variables are.

    Thanks for the reply, I'm sure you all mean well, and answering questions probably a part of the job anybody likes.
