Next module in the workflow is the Vilnius A/D module. It is hooked up on the desk here now and the development environment is loaded. The hardware for it has been ready a while, now it’s time for code. With a bit of luck it will be available in the FrogShop next week.

I did not have time to take a picture last night of the CAN4VSCP power injector but here it is. As everyone see investments in a better camera is scheduled here at the Paradise of the Frog.
A new firmware release 1.1.1 is available for Frankfurt RS-232. This is a bug fix release and it fixes a problem that occurs sometimes when sending frames with maximum length. Typically this happens when bootloading a device over the VSCP daemon.
The new firmware is available here.
Manual and instructions on how to update the firmware is here.
As a general note please enable hardware handshake whenever possible using the Frankfurt RS-232 module for bootloading.

Hi,
after the recent release of the new version of VSCP & Friends we finally have time to do some hardware development again. Two new modules are available.
CAN4VSCP Power Injector
This module is makes it possible to power 16 x CAN4VSCP modules using the daisy chain connector. It also have two RJ-35 connectors and terminators for the bus on board. Usage is typically to connect several CAN4VSCP boards together in a cabinet, either as a self contained unit or connected to other groups of modules. DIN or wall mount options are available.
Price is EUR 28 and it is available in the FrogShop for immediate delivery.
CAN4VSCP Accra
Accra is a counter board that can count pulses on four channels. In addition to counting pulses it can also measure frequency. The main intended use is for power/water/other meter interfacing using S0 pulses or other means. But there are numerous other usages for this powerful module for sure. The Accra module is capable of outputting an appropriate measurement unit from a pulsed channel and can thus output kWh from a power meter for example or liters of used water from a water meter. This of course make it very easy to handle the data sent from the module, graphing or just collecting it. DIN or wall mount options are available.
The product page for Accra is here.
Price is EUR 28 and it is available from the FrogShop for immediate delivery.
More modules are on the way. A lot of them in fact. We move against Ethernet and wireless domains from here. Connecting the different domains of devices together.
