Hi cinta51,

The error you are getting:

ser_open(): can't open device "/dev/ttyUSB0"

means that you have not selected the correct port for your USB programming cable in your Makefile. From the looks if it appears that you are on windows, so your Makefile should have something like COM2 or 3 depending on what your computer assigned the cable instead of "/dev/ttyUSB0". Hope that fixes it.

Humberto

This will also cause a problem:

"define ALERT_SECONDS 10 /how many seconds should the buzzer sound /"

I think you meant:

"define ALERT_SECONDS 10 /how many seconds should the buzzer sound /

Ralph

It's the forum software turning asterisks into italics, in both of your posts. It's clear he knows the syntax for comments.

OMG now I feel dumb lol, yeah I did add the COM4 and it worked fine. thankyou very much

I certainly did not mean to imply that cinta51 did not know the syntax for comments. I know for me a simple syntax error sometimes will slip by.

As for the idiosyncrasies of the forum software thanks for pointing that behavior out, it would be so nice to have a [code] facility.

Ralph

It looks like they just added a button to do that.

/* Let's try it out */

This is

AWESOME

This will make posting of code MUCH easier...

THANKS!!

Hi Rick, Bret, Ralph, and cinta51,

I am glad you guys are enjoying the new magical indent button. Please send us an email at support <at> nerdkits <dot> com if you encounter any strange side effects or bugs with the new button.

Humberto

So far so good with the button, Already used it in another thread.
