I found a great way to get data from Espruino into Google Spreadsheets using PushingBox! And here

is a great video to boot (Although its with Arduino) about 2 minutes in.

Yeah I finally got it to work. There are a few issues I had. On these boards I had to use the TOP RIGHT usb port. When I downloaded the ST Flash Loader Demonstrator I was trying to get the STMicroelectronics com driver to work and it did not at all. The driver that worked best for me was this Prolific Driver. Its a Prolific Driver Version 3.2.0.0 and is dated at 7/31/2007

You have to manually update the Driver. Similar to this video

although after that driver was installed on my Windows 7 computer it was named plainly as "USB-to-Serial" until I re-updated the Driver.

ok thanks and I did not see this explanation until now

Are we able to select SPI2 when calling connect now? If not then it sounds like I have to modify that board_spi.h file?

Yeah I have I think 14 Picos and one original. I have an application for these larger touch screens though. Thanks

Guys can someone please post a YouTube video from the ground up on either Windows 7 or 8. I do now know what I am missing and this is just getting aggravating. I have tried 3 different computers. I have installed windows 8 dpinst_amd64.exe. Connected on the top left of the HY32. In boot mode. Thanks

Alrighty then....that worked! Thank you. Good to know.

Yes it does!?.......

Attached is a picture of the unit. It is for two thermocouples. I disconnected the cs line and it still sends back data.

Tried a few combinations including writing cs to 0.

digitalWrite(B1,1);
digitalWrite(B10,1);

SPI1.setup({sck:A5, miso:A6, mosi:A7, baud:1000000 });

var max=require("MAX31855").connect(SPI1,B10­/*CS*/);
console.log(max.getTemp());

E.connectSDCard(SPI1,B1/*CS*/);
console.log(require("fs").readdir());

Should we not be able to have multiple spi devices on the same channel and separately called (CS) ? I have a temperature sensor MAX32855 and a sd card on a Pico. The intent is to have a few temperature sensors recording data to the sd card. Anyways here is the code:

SPI1.setup({sck:A5, miso:A6, mosi:A7, baud:1000000 });

var max=require("MAX31855").connect(SPI1,B10­/*CS*/);
console.log(max.getTemp());

E.connectSDCard(SPI1,B1/*CS*/);
console.log(require("fs").readdir()); 

The problem is that the temps usually read fine (though sometimes they give random really high readings?) but when I access the sd card it errors

ERROR: Unable to mount SD card : NOT_READY
undefined

As soon as I disconnect the MAX31855 then the sd card works fine.........??

Thank you Jorgen!

So is there an example and tutorial available to connect an sd card to the Pico? Maybe a recommended breakout board?

I think the reason for the "AT was not found" was due to the load modules from npm being turned on....... and your suggestion works!

EDIT: after further testing I am still having the AT module issue.

So I have my new ESP8266 and it is up and running. Couple problems. I'm still having problems with the "AT wasn't found". Happens way too often and I have a great internet connection.

The second part is creating an access point. This works:

Serial2.setup(115200, { rx: A3, tx : A2 });
var wifi = require("ESP8266WiFi").connect(Serial2, function(err) {
  if (err) throw err;
  wifi.reset(function(err) {
    if (err) throw err;
    console.log("Connecting to WiFi");
    wifi.createAP("Test", "guest", 1, "wep", function(err) {
      console.log("Connected");
      require("http").createServer(function (req, res) {
        res.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'});
        res.write('Hello World');
        res.end();
      }).listen(80);
    });
  });
});

But this is having issues:

function onPageRequest(req, res) {
  var a = url.parse(req.url, true);
  res.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/html'});
  res.write('<html><body>');
  res.write('<p>Pin is '+(BTN.read()?'on':'off')+'</p>');
  res.write('<a href="?led=1">on</a><br/><a href="?led=0">off</a>');
  res.end('</body></html>');
  if ("led" in a.query) digitalWrite(LED1, a.query["led"]);
}

Serial2.setup(115200, { rx: A3, tx : A2 });
var wifi = require("ESP8266WiFi").connect(Serial2, function(err) {
  if (err) throw err;
  wifi.reset(function(err) {
    if (err) throw err;
    console.log("Connecting to WiFi");
    wifi.createAP("Test", "guest", 1, "wep", function(err) {
      console.log("Connected");
      require("http").createServer(onPageReque­st).listen(80);
    });
  });
});

says this:

Uncaught Error: Field or method "led" does not already exist, and can't create it on null
 at line 8 col 57
  if ("led" in a.query) digitalWrite(LED1, a.query["led"]);

Ordered the USB-TTL converter and another (hopefully correct version) of the board.

reset didn't help. Here is what I get on the version:

"AT+GMR\r\r\nAT ve"
"rsio"
"n:0."
"21."
"0.0\r"
"\nSD"
"K ve"
"rsion"
":0.9"
".5\r\n"
"\r\nO"
"K\r\n"

No I am using the right hand side, and on the internet..... Ill try closing the console and reopening it.

Started into Javascript a few years ago trying to make custom interactive Google Spreadsheets. Expanded slightly into HTML. I work with some PLC systems with work. Love the idea of Espruino and want to help better connect it with Google sheets. Gears are turning on all the possibilities!

Tried that a few times. I had it working a few weeks ago but it took me a day and a half to find some driver file that happened to work. Then my 3D printer showed up and I wanted to reset the windows computer to its factory state to get all the slow BS off of it. (my normal computer is a Chromebook) I sure wish I saved that file first because I can not duplicate whatever I did. Pulling my hair out! Its a HP laptop with Windows 7. Few years old..... Trying to re-flash with the network drivers.......

Hey guys.

Was having a similar problem. After I shortened a few wires and moved the 1117 right in close to the Pico would it start returning anything of value. (on a bread board)

My mfg says its 9200 but only 115200 would not return gibberish. But my pico only works on every other try... sometime with the need of a reset(). (code run from the right side of the console). The following is where I am getting stuck...... don't know where the sdcard bit is coming from??

Hey all
I am running windows 7 64 bit. I am having a miserable time getting this com port to function. This is to flash the HY32_32 through the Demonstrator GUI. Thank you.

I suppose NetworkJS is also in the bin? Any way to get wifi on the HY32? I have screens coming for my picos but it would be nice to do more testing with the HY32. Maybe DrAzzy could elaborate on that a little bit? Thanks all.

I was curious how you connected the CC3000 to the HY32? I've been stumbling around trying to find the CC3000.js file to copy over to a SD card. Im really new to the module side so anything that can point me into the right direction would be great.

Well I did find a work around. Its not perfect but it works well enough.
On google script use the following function. It can then be called by a Google script project trigger. You can expand the code to insert the data into the spreadsheet as a database.

function myFunction() {
  var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch("IP Address");
  Logger.log(response.getContentText());
}

I used the "Hello World" server example from the CC3000 page. I then set port forwarding on my router for the espruino server address through port 80. When called the Logger reports "Hello World"!!
