Hi,

After looking at the previous posts regarding the issues you are having with I2C and stm32 I was wondering wether it would be easy, at that point in time, to hook up a wii motion plus gyro to my stm32f103 board ?
I'd rather ask you, the specialists, I'm hesitating between spending time fiddle ...

Changed the semaphore's name and it's now working great !
Sorry for that one Giovanni !

I'm not sure I initialize de semaphore correctly.

Do you have to use " BSEMAPHORE_DECL ( ", "chBSemInit (" or both ?
Is possible you give me an example of a semphore initialization routine ?

Best regards,

Dave

Hi,

I'm banging my head against the wall because I can't get the binary semaphore to work. What I'm trying to do is the unlock a thread on receive of a shell command.
I tried to initialize a binary semaphore in the main(). Then, the tread is put on hold until the semaphore gets released. The ...

What I don't understand is : What if nothing is happening and you want to send data out ? To do this, you need to wake up the thread. In order to do wake it up, how then, can you make the transition from none empty to empty happen from another thread ?
Do you have to wait for flag==IO_OUTPUT_EMPTY ...

Hi,

- Data in the receive queue.
- Transmit queue empty.
- Receive errors.

How do you access these events ? I'm looking for "serial driver event source" and I can't find anything appart from :

Hi,

Random question : "how do associate a physical processor's pin on which you want the PWM signal to happen with a PWM channel ?"

Hi,

I see it with the yellow icon on the left side and the include is underlined in yellow. I compiles without any problem. I can even load the code and get it running on the board.
I rebuilt the index, no success.
Maybe my rebuilt index options aren't right ....?

Ps : I'm only starting now to ...

Hi,

Everything now works appart from the "Unresolved inclusion:" warning eg:"ch.h". I read somewhere that you had to go to "Project" => "Properties" expand "C/C++ General" => "paths and symbols" and from there add the path to something.
Can you tell me what path to add ?

Is it the path to a ...
