Using Phidgets boards - Feb 2 at 11:58AM

EJS has now new a Model Element to control Phidget boards.

The best way to learn how to use it is to inspect an example. See attached zip with one example.

Before you inspect the example, you need to download the Phidget drivers from http://www.phidgets.com/docs/Operating_System_Support and install them in your computer. Then. load the attached example and inspect it.

You need additional hardware for making things work. The boards just act as I/O boards. Whatever software you attach to them makes the real work. But if you are playing with these boards, you know this already.

For instance, you need a Phidget 1048 board (4 probe temperature sensor) for the attached example.

Good luck!
