I got a K8061 and plan to control it from a Windows XP Netbook. I want to program some simple state machines,
nothing fancy at all. If this pin is high, put this pin low and so on…
Which program langauge should I use ? In the download area of Welleman, the following K8061 language samples are included :
- Visual Basic, VB6.
- Visual Basic, VB.NET 2005 (pro).
- Visual Basic, VB express edition 2005 (free).
- Borland C++ builder.
- Visual C++, VC6 (Microsoft).
- Visual C++, VC2005 (Microsoft).
- Borland Delphi
As far as I understand, these versions are outdated and can not be downloaded any more.
Maybe these could be used instead :
VISUAL C++ 2008 Express (free)
I do not like development tools with a lot of files and fancy GUI, but I guess I could get used to it.
But as there are no samples on the CD, I am affraid that I will have issues using the DLL. Or is there
somebody who wrote a simple pin setting VB 2008 C++ example for the K8061 ?
PYHTON (free)
Seems attractive, as it has an interpreter mode, is compact and does not require a fancy development tool.
Again, there there are no samples on the CD. I am affraid that I will have issues using the DLL. Or is there somebody
who wrote a simple PYTHON pin setting example for the K8061 ?
Or do you have a better idea ? Which language should I use to program a simple state machine with the K8061 ?
Thanks a lot for your help
