Visit Preferences to set your user name Summary of change: Sub page for MembersPage/SteenAndersen This page is to collect my history, with old Q&A, and Progress.. ---- 04 Apr. 2005 Compilation of firmware problem from MembersPage/SteenAndersen/Questions page is solved. 1 - I did un-install !WinAVR version "!WinAVR-20050214-install.exe" 2 - Installed the version from "!WinAVR-20040720-install.exe" 3 - used, ''make clean''[Enter] ; ''sh'' [enter] , then ''make all'' [enter]; and this time no errors Viola. Actually it only worked on my old download of the firmware from 27 Jan 2005, when i try to compile my latest download from 26 March 2005 it fail with tihis error. <code> sipr.c: In function `sipr_process_inc': sipr.c:69: error: `sipr' undeclared (first use in this function) sipr.c:70: error: `sipr_recCRC' undeclared (first use in this function) D:\app\WinAVR\utils\bin\make.exe: *** [sipr.o] Error 1 rm eventqueue.o ign_logging.o phasesignal.o benchmark.o dispatcher.o engine.o me nu.o injconf.o ignconf.o knock.o multitooth.o edis.o ringbuf.o injector.o boostc ontrol.o sh-2.04$ </code> Hmmmmmmmmm.......... A: Spir is only added to latest CVS; It seems to me you are not using the released firmware from GenBoard/UnderDevelopment/FirmwareChanges, current CVS is _not stable_, stick to using releases - DB ''' OK : Follow UP ''' I was able to compile the "released" version download, so compilation enviroment must be ok, and the 26 mrs. 2005 download i have must be bad or broken. I'll stick to released version. BUT in the MembersPage/JohanEriksson/VerThreeFirmForDummies that i followed, it says to download the firmvare from csv with the GETFIRM.bat; but that apperently not always a good idea. So maybe a correcttion to the MembersPage/JohanEriksson/VerThreeFirmForDummies was a good idea :-) ---- ==== Problem ALMOST SOLVED, THX to Answer A2 below. :-) ==== 1 - I did un-install WinAVR version ""WinAVR-20050214-install.exe"" 2 - Installed the version from "WinAVR-20040720-install.exe" 3 - used, ''make clean'' ; ''sh'' , then ''make all''; and this time no errors Viola. But it only compiles old version Firmware. Se error on Progress page. ---- 30-March-2005 == HELP == ''I'm nor sure if this question should be asked on BuildFirmwareFAQ page, please let me know i'm new to this wiki concept.'' I Cannot get the Firmware to Compile into VEMS.HEX with the '''make''' command. Iread the page GenBoard/Firmware/BuildFirmwareFAQ several times, trying all the hint's about PATH variable, and SH command, but no good. I run on XP SP2, and installed the latest versions off !ActivePerl-5.8.6.811 and !WinAVR-20050214 And type like this in a CMD <code> D:\VEMS\Firmware\Copy\firmware>make clean </code> Witch turn out fine to clean up in the firmware directory ending like this <code> rm -f vems.a90 rm -f vems.hex rm -f vems.sym rm -f vems.eep rm -f vems.hex rm -f vems.asm rm -f *.bak rm -f *.log rm -f *.*~ Errors: none </code> Then i try to compile within the SH Shell with the '''make''' command, like this. <code> D:\VEMS\Firmware\Copy\firmware>sh sh-2.04$ unset LIB sh-2.04$ make echo "runme from sh shell, win32 cmd is broken, dies with CreateProcess error" runme from sh shell, win32 cmd is broken, dies with CreateProcess error avr-gcc -c -O3 -g -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wa,-ahlms=actuators.lst -D GENBOARD v3 -D FETDRIVER_INVERTING -D LCD -D LCD_4x20 -D PS2KEYBOARD -D BENCHMARK -D CELS IUS -D WBO2 -mmcu=atmega128 -I. actuators.c -o actuators.o . . . comm.o(.text+0x97a):D:\VEMS\Firmware\Copy\firmware/comm.c:834: more undefined re ferences to `PRG_RDB' follow D:\app\WinAVR\utils\bin\make.exe: *** [vems.elf] Error 1 rm avr/adc.o avr/lcd.o avr/eventqueue.o avr/kb.o injconf.o eventqueue.o dispatch er.o avr/iac.o avr/spi.o softpwm.o avr/wbo2.o injector.o spi.o engine.o ign_logg ing.o phasesignal.o avr/keyboard.o avr/dispatcher.o timing.o benchmark.o avr/sto rage.o avr/fuelcontrol.o avr/menu.o edis.o avr/button.o avr/timing.o ringbuf.o a vr/actuators.o ignconf.o boostcontrol.o multitooth.o menu.o knock.o avr/comm.o sh-2.04$ </code> I did the above on firmware downloaded on Jan 27 and 26 Mar. 2005 with same result. I tried to reinstall Perl and !WinAVR, same result.I even trid to install it on the labtop, same result. What is wrong. I use the my_make from /docs with !WBO2 enabled. I did manage to compile the tables with '''make mtt'' so something is working. A: For production cars stick with the firmware release from: http://www.vems.hu/wiki/index.php?page=GenBoard%2FUnderDevelopment%2FFirmwareChanges it has a precompiled vems.hex (with wbo2 enabled) in there- DB. A2: The error you are describing seems to be related to a PRG_RDB macro change in the latest avr-libc, if you revert back to an older version you should be able to compile properly. If you do a wiki search on 'PRG_RDB' you'll see that GenBoard/UnderDevelopment/FirmWare page has another solution to your problem. Good luck - DB ---- Update: 03 Apr. 2005 OK. I gave up to compile the Firmware, and downloaded the released version form GenBoard/UnderDevelopment/FirmwareChanges I got the serial port to work from perl by installing Win32-API + Serial port support. And succeded to upload Vems.hex file to GenBoard. I tried to use Megatune, but the configuration files seems to be wrong. I can see the reealtime parameters like temp, rpm, clt, iat, a.s.o. Then i trid to install MegaTunix, it seem to work until i enter the motor detail s page then i crashes. So for now i only have RS232, LCD, PS2, and perl up working I tested almost all the port's with mdh''XX'' command. Next i think i have to start consider how the tables.txt and config.txt will look like. ---- Update: 25. March 2005 I Have Connected and Tested Communication to RS-232, PS2 Keyboard, and LCD Display. I tried the '''mxc''' command, ant tried the '''mcd''' and got the whole set off parameters in return. YAHOOO....... :-) So far it's a success; but i must say that it's not that easy, because of the lack off a better toturial or building manual. The PS2 connection has been corrected in [http://megasquirtavr.sourceforge.net/manual/Detailed.Central.Keyboard.html#Install the manual] - thanx for the feedback.
