PSoC™ Creator & Designer Forum Discussions

Hi All

As a result of not always working in the Creator IDE, say Droidedit while on the road, the CYDEV_CHIP_JTAG_ID is not always accessible in cyfitter.h

Is there a reference or include file with all PSoC parts and corresponding CYDEV_CHIP_JTAG_ID's?

Many Thanks
Greg

Hi, 

i have some files with .cfg extension. In this file their are some defines. Now the problem is, that Creator does not index these files, and for large areas of my code, i have no syntax highlighting.

Is there a possibility to add file-extensions which should be indexed?

Thanks!

I want to use CY8CMBR2110 but cannot determine from the datasheet if there is pwm support. There is a LED dimming option though. Please tell me if it can be connected to LCD pwm input.

Hi All

I am using PSOC creator 4, CY8CKIT-049-42xx  with the Mark Hastings Strip Light Controller example and having success getting it to work with my 8x8 serial led array, but I have to make changes to some of the "Generated Source" files, StripLights.c, and StripLights_fonts.c and I save the changes and files.  Then for unknown reasons, the files revert back to their original form discarding the changes I made to them.  How do I prevent this from happening?

I can force it to revert the files using the Build_ Clean and build.  It will always revert the files back to original state, breaking my fixes.

How do I change this behavior, or save the files in my new state?

Hi,

I get some unnecessary and random file generated...i have attached the sreen shot of it..

and i also get error whenever i try to open project. the error is:

Error: prj.M0052: Unable to open the project ".\Experiment.cydsn\Experiment.cyprj":  Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Users\astro\Dropbox\Amaresh IIA\Code\17_Filters\Experiment.cydsn\Experiment.cyprj'.

Error: prj.M0052: Unable to open the project "":  Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Users\astro\Dropbox\Amaresh IIA\Code\17_Filters\Experiment.cydsn\Experiment.cyprj'.

Please suggest me some solution for it..

Thank you.

Hi Everyone

I wondered why PSoC Creator 3 and now with Creator 4,  the workspace  freezes  very frequently, it loses the cursor and this is repeated a few seconds again.
This is very annoying because sometimes occurs for 5 seconds long
This is more intense when I'm online. The first time it happened, it was a couple of weeks and it looked like someone was accessing remotely PSoC Creator  because that the cursor was moving alone.
I was suspecting from my laptop but it work OK, I have have 16 GB of memory and 348 GB free on Hard disk.
 

Thank for any help about it.

Hello,

I'm working my way through some tutorials and I found a project I want to open and build.  I was sucessful in opening it once; however, ever since I closed it, it will no longer open.  Every time I try it crashes the program.  I deleted the entire directory and re-downloaded the files, but it still crashes.

Here is the git hub page of the project in question. https://github.com/LagunaMatada/GlowTime 

When I did have it open it wouldn't build, but that's another story I guess.  Maybe I can figure that out too? 

When PSOC Creator crashes it gives me the option to copy to clipboard.  Here is the result (using latest and fully updated creator sp2):

We are currently experimenting with the CY8CKIT-022 CapSense Liquid Level Sensing Shield. So far we have been using the demo software as is, with CSD mode (self capacitance mode).

One problem we would like to overcome is the possibility of droplets of water or liquid accumulating on the sensors which are not submerged. This would result in measurement errors. The simplest step appears to be to use the CSX mode (mutual capacitance mode). This appears to reduce the impact of the water drops.

Looking at the API, to determine the liquid level, we would use the number of active sensors. The sensors are essentially buttons activated by the water level.

However to reduce the number of sensors we would like to use longer sensors and do some interpolation of the raw sensor data to determine the liquid level. For experimental purposes, we would like to use the CSX mode, but also use the raw sensor data? In the case of CSD there is access to the raw sensor data, but there doesn't appear to be in the case of CSX. I may be wrong, so I will keep looking.

The aim would be to determine if the effect of the water drops could be reduced using CSX combined with longer sensors and data interpolation.
