Using Pointing-Point Coprocessor on BS2/Ping=))/Lcd Display

irivine

I have bought the following product from the start

1)BS2
2)Ultrasonic sensor
3)2x16 Lcd display
4)Floating-Point Coprocessor

i have manage to get the program running in the way i would like it to be but i could not figure out how do i display the "speed" in my attach project code in decimal place.it seem that the stamp does not support the decimal point feature hence i bought the coprocessor.

i have attached the code of my program and hope i could get any help from someone

Thanks you
any help render will be appreciated

If you want two decimal places you need to multiply your answer by 100 before you send it to the stamp then print the number devided by 100, a period and the the number mod 100. At least I think that's it, I have to relearn these things every time I use them.

Which floating point processor are you using? The ones I have used will produce a string internally containing a formated number. You can copy that string, one byte at a time, to the LCD for display. I didn't notice any code in the sample you provided that uses the floating point co-processor.

Have you run any of the programs with the FPu? There is code on the page where you bought the part.
