WiFi Demo

This project is based upon the Meadow ProjectLab_Demo. It needs the project Meadow.ProjectLab located with that project. (You need to clone that GitHub project and then add the Meadow.ProjectLab project as a project reference to this project.) Update (15/10/23) Using Meadow.ProjectLab Nuget package instead of the separate source code.

The WiFi functionality is based upon the Meadow.Core.Samples WiFi_Basics project.

This project demonstrates using the display in a reusable manner, as a menu. The user selects a network from the locally found WiFi access poinst and then selects from a given list of passwords.

SerialPort_Echo

Demonstrates loopback serial transmission.

• Uses COM1.
• Jumper COM1 Tx to Rx in mikroBUS socket 1 (Not socket2)
• Adapted from [Meadow.Core.Samples]/IO/SerialPort_Echo project

Update: Version 2

• Alternatively define EchoToTerminal
  • Requires Serial connection from COM1 to PC running Serial Terminal (eg Putty).
    • 115200 BAUD
  • For example use USB-Serial connection with COM1 as shown:
    

Grove Digital IO and Analog In

Project: DigitalIO

Toggle an LED with a pushbutton

• Connect Grove LED to Grove UART socket on right of ProjectLab
• Connect Grove Pushbutton to Grove Digital socket on right of ProjectLab
• Ref: Meadow_Basics/IO/Digital/

Alternatives

• The LED can be replaced with the Grove Buzzer, or the Grove Relay etc.
• The Grove Touch sensor can be used instead of the pushbutton.

Analog In (Update V2)

Simple voltage reading, nonevent driven.

• Add Grove Angle Sensor (Potentiometer) (or similar) to Grove Analog Socket on ProjectLab right
• Ref: Meadow_Basics/IO/Analog/

MulticolorLED

Toggle LED between Blue-Green-Red

• Uses onboard Tricolor LED located between mikoBUS socket 2 and Boot button
• Add Grove Pushbutton (or similar) to Grove Digital socket on ProjectLab right.

GPSMod

• Simple Console app for receiving and parsing GPS data.
• Based upon WildernessLabs Nmea Processing doc
• Uses COM1 (as per SerialEcho), with serial GPS device connected.
