and won't be clicking on links like this one again, now that I have suspicions. I don't (knowingly) give out my GMail eddress. must have logged into it for something else days ago.) I would guess that if you use the link, you are, ** unwittingly **, going to be sending your GMail email address to whoever put up the link you've been persuaded to click.

If you examine the source for the page with the link for downloading the program, you will find your GMail email address in it! (I hadn't entered it for ages. If you go where the link in the announcement at the top takes you, from there, eventually, you get to a page with a link for downloading the program. The simulator's site doesn't have any comments up about the download issue. Linked to how Google's shared docs system operates, I suspect. Modified comments on download from original post.ĭownload link had a dead end route waiting for you. but I STILL think we should be promoting the good ones!

(Again.) Before we all get behind THIS one, maybe we should explore the field a bit? I had no idea (duh) that this wasn't the first. there I go getting all excited, rushing in. On 22 Jan 15 I cut down the following, but left parts to highlight the dead end which I suspect remains, and to make the following point, which was originally a PS. If it even almost works, let's make getting it working even better worth the time of the people behind it.ĭownload problem solved! See post of 22 Jan 15 I haven't played with it, but if it even ALMOST works, let's all get busy on. Three cheers for this EXCELLENT initiative. but I can make a great start on the overall road to success with the simulator. If I can 'do' the LED in the simulation, I've solved the Arduino and software problems for doing the door lock in the real world. FOR THE SIMULATION, I doubt that there is a door-lock-thingie 'device' in the simulator.

In the final product, the Arduino will make an output high to make the door-lock-thingie unlock. 'Stuff' boils down to inputs and outputs.įor a maybe-almost-too-simple example: Suppose I was using the simulator to develop software for a system to unlock my front door if I press the right buttons on a keypad. I would encourage people using the simulator to teach Arduino use to encourage a good design/ development skill along the road to coping with the fact that the simulator probably WON'T simulate every possible bit of external kit: How does it handle complex external hardware?
