[C.CC USERS] users Digest, Vol 38, Issue 1

[Dr Peter D Minns]

Hi Chris

I have been using the Plumb software for a while now using the Arduino UNO board.  Matt Jadud is the development programmer of Plumb and he tells me he intends to get Pumb to work with the Mega board sometime, but at present he is using the UNO version.  I think he did do some work with the Arduino 1280 board but he may not have got around to the 2560 version.

When you use the UNO make sure you plug it into your computer before you fire up Plumb so Plumb can identify the USB connection.  It should work fine.

I have some sample programs that allow occam to access the Arduino ports (PORTB, PORTC) directly.  I can let you have a sample if you like.  There are still problems accessing the ATmega328 internal peripherals - but I am sure Matt will get around to sorting these out.

Do not bother with Jedit as Matt is no longer supporting this tool.  Problem is he has to keep track of individual versions of Jedit (PC/MAC/Linux) which is tedious.  Plumb, being up on a cloud is easier to maintain).

Like you I am interested in occam as I used it way back in the days of the Transputer (occam2) and am interested in using it with the Arduino.  

Hope this helps.

Peter

P.S. Try contacting Matt as he has done most of the development of Plumb.

I have downloaded the program for Macs from www.concurrency.cc and have run the install - all that appears to happen is I get an icon with CC arrows and the name plum - thats it -  I have the Mega 2560 plugged in and I know that the mac does communicate with it - I have used an Arduino app.  I am completely stuck now, the ribbon for Plum just contains a tab called Plum. The other thing is I can't quit plum I have to Force it to quit.  Any help would be greatly appreciated as I would like to have a go at programming with Occam - Thanks.
