Trying to log and read my input trigger using the mde40 command.
1. In the terminal program click "start log" selected the file name as the default "terminal".
2. Type Man then mde40.
3. Start spinning trigger wheel, odd looking characters and symbols start running across the Terminal program screen.
4. Stop spinning trigger wheel, click "end log" in terminal program.
- need to run perl bin/binary.pl < toothtimes.bin > toothtimes.txt
- but I just get a message saying cant find file: which file ? If you saved to terminal.log, use terminal.log not toothtimes.bin !
- I substitute all the "toothtimes" text for "terminal" but get the same message.
- watch out for the extension. Turn on "view extension" otherwise it's easy to make files like whatever.bin.log or similar. Verify with dir command before you run the perl bin/....
- why don't you upload terminal.log (file manager at DocsPage bottom)? We can easily format it for you and check how it goes
I navigate to that folder through the command prompt, and type it again, it still says it cant find the file.
I have saved the log file in the file thingy under EricN>terminal.log
I now get an error that says "cannot open perl script "bin/binary.pl": No such file or directory. I do end up with a file called toothtimes.txt but it is empty.
- do it from the right directory (same dir as the firmware). Search for binary.pl. (and go up one dir so bin/binary.pl will work)
- See the terminal.log below: perl /svn/firmware/firmware/trunk/bin/binary.pl <terminal.log >terminal.txt
the terminal.log file is in the file thingy, under EricN. I try and click it to attach the link but it just opens as a file with all the garbled characters
Tried something else to attach the link, see if the next one works.
