other tutorials?

realolman

I got the propeller education chip a couple days ago and worked through the tutorial from the reference manual in the propeller tool's help....· seems real interesting.

I didn't have any TV plug or accessories so I didn't do those, but there seems to be a good bit more stuff in the case that I haven't used.

Are there other tutorials somewhere that I am missing?

thanks

Realolman,,

you can find other educational downloads here:

To get a TV working with your prop isn't too hard once you learn some basics. You can buy RCA style plugs at Radio Shack for a couple bucks. These can be plugged into the sides or back of many TVs. On the other end, these RCA jacks can be soldered to wires that you can then plug into your protoboard of your Educational kit. You'll need to set up a few resistors, a diagram of which is attached.

I'm away from my computer that has the SPIN files but maybe somebody else can post what the name of the SPIN file is for getting the TV up and running with a nifty demo.

hope that helps,
Mark

thanks... they had some schematics in the tutorial I looked at...· I just didn't have the tv, plugs or the ambition right now... but I did want to look at some more stuff with the propeller...· seems like a good thing.

hello,

it's quite easy to switch the output from TV to FullDuplexSerial or to use the PropTerminal instead

here are some more easy demoprograms


and here you can download PropTerminal

with which you can EMULATE a TV on your PC via the programming-cable

take also a look into Good thread index

and into propeller.wikispaces.com

best regards

Stefan
