PSoC™ Creator & Designer Forum Discussions

Hi,

I'm trying to develop a customizer (yes i'm still trying to design a customizer for my custom component xD), i'm getting a Exception when trying to set a parameter with the SetParamExpr function.

¿Is there anyway to debug the customizer while developing in Creator? I haven't seen someone developing the customizer on VS, running it on Creator and being able to debug it, so if you know a way to debug the customizer please let me know.

I had tried using System.Diagnostigs and Debug.WriteLine function but i can't see the messages being printed. So i'm currently using a Label on the customizer itself to print the messages i need to see.

Attached is the project in case you want to take a look and let me know if i'm doing something wrong (i'm still a newbie with c# and windows forms applications).

To trigger the error i'm getting open the example project, click on the dummy_app component and click the button on the customizer.

Regards,

Carlos

Hello @ll,

If you want to configurate, debug and test your implementation interactive, you can do this with mecrisp-stellaris, an FORTH implementation for several Cypress PSOCs.

Example:

To initiate a PWM there are several API's to do this. One API write the compare value:

To using this API you can call the API in a C-function. To modifies it on the fly you can use the configure menu from PSOC-Creator and translate and flash the whole application.

Alternative you can do following, if you have install mecrisp-stellaris:

100 PWM_1_WriteCompare1()  <enter>      \ 100 is put on the data stack and the API 'PWM_1_WriteCompare1()' will be calling. /!\ translating and flashing are not necessary

You can also define a word like this:

: MaxDuty1

     100

     PWM_1_WriteCompare1()

;

or that

: MinDuty1

     0

     PWM_1_WriteCompare1()

;

... MaxDuty wait MinDuty ....      \ for more examples download one of following mecrisp-stellaris implementations:

As already published here, the FORTH development environment 'mecrisp-stellaris' is available for download for the following 7 Cypress PSoC's:

Board:          /          PSoC:

CY8CKIT-043     -> cy8c4247azi

CY8CKIT-044     -> cy8c4247azi

CY8CKIT-046     -> cy8c4248bzi

Hi,

I would like to use the PrISM component to change the brightness of a led Matrix.

I have configured the PrISM component with a resolution of 8 bits, the pulse density type as Less Than or Equal.

To change the dimming value, I modify the pulse density with the API function PWM_L_WritePulse0(item), sending and integer from 0 to 255. The dimming is working but is not linear.

I have the following curve:

How can I make the dimming linear?
