Title: Axe Calcnet Library - Testing
Post by: Compynerd255 on March 31, 2011, 10:35:31 am: I have been working on an Axe Library for CALCnet interfacing. I have made good progress and gotten the concept down. However, the program doesn't work, and I can't figure out why. :'( Could all you good people in the community please help me?

I created the source for a CALCnet Axiom. In my current situation, I cannot compile, but I have the source here:

Code: (CALCnet axiom) [Select]

Also I think this should be in the Axe language section rather than the project one, unless you plan to use this topic to announce updates?

I think he means that he's using a computer where there isn't an assembly environment, so he can't try to compile it.

Yeah, it uses parts of the DCS app, it's just not included directly.

All CALCnet2.2 is is referencing and storing certain memory locations. That's part of the reason I like it so much, and also why I was able to write an Axiom for it at all.

EDIT: In other news, not only did I just post the Axiom code to Cemetech, but I also got my Arduino last night in the mail. Now all I need to do is cut up a unit-to-unit cable or take apart a cell phone.

Post by: DJ Omnimaga on April 14, 2011, 12:05:23 am: Congrats on the Arduino purchase Compynerd! Personally I use a 84+ with an USB cable but if you got a 83+ or no direct USB cable that can be an option too.
Title: Re: Axe Calcnet Library - Testing
Post by: Compynerd255 on April 14, 2011, 10:32:06 am: I've got the 83PBE. However, it has this weird thing in the hardware where it will turn off if subjected to impact. I might end up getting an 84 if it breaks. But even if that happens, I have other uses for the Arduino, so it won't be a waste of money.

Post by: Compynerd255 on April 15, 2011, 10:20:54 am: I actually just tested the CALCnet Axiom. Kerm compiled it to Hex for me, and I compiled it on my calc to binary, then used a program to convert it to an appvar. However, when I compile my test program, it says "ERR: BAD AXIOM" when one of the tokens is referenced - which means that the Axiom is built wrong. This (http://www.cemetech.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=145990#145990) is the Cemetech thread about this subject. Quigibo, could you please help me out with this?

Post by: DJ Omnimaga on April 16, 2011, 04:15:45 am: Hmm strange, I hope you can get it sorted out. X.x

Do you think posting source code would be a possible option?
Title: Re: Axe Calcnet Library - Testing
Post by: Compynerd255 on April 26, 2011, 09:51:20 pm: I just compiled it using the copy of spasm supplied with Hot_Dog's tutorial! It's attached to the post. I haven't tested it yet, so please do!
Title: Re: Axe Calcnet Library - Testing
Post by: Compynerd255 on April 29, 2011, 10:38:20 am: I just tested the Axiom and found out that the token bytes were in the wrong order (the symbol was not recognized). Therefore, I swapped the token bytes and recompiled. The program is attached.

And I should say that it will try to send to your calc as a program called OUTPUT, just to warn you.

Post by: DJ Omnimaga on April 29, 2011, 08:17:47 pm: I'm glad this is progressing. I unfortunately can't test since I don't code in axe anymore, though. D:
