NXP^TM M522XX, KINETIS and i.MX RT / Present Time

« on: September 01, 2007, 03:40:44 AM »

The "Present Time" box of the "µTasker - administration" side web page <.../5admin.htm> doesn't display the current time unless both USE_TIME_SERVER and SUPPORT_LCD constants have been defined.  You need SUPPORT_LCD even if you don't have an LCD attached.

The time shown (in the summer) is the time in London, not UT (a.k.a. GMT).  In the winter, I guess the time shown would be the time in Switzerland.  In any case, to set the time to Eastern Daylight Time (my local time, five hours behind London), I've added two lines to application.c:
       #define TIMEZONE (-5*60*60)
near where REL_9_1_2007 is defined (though it should probably be in config.h) and added
        ulPresentTime += TIMEZONE;
just after the line
        ulPresentTime -= REL_9_1_2007;                                   // relative to 0:0:0 on 9.1.2007

Best regards,

NXP^TM M522XX, KINETIS and i.MX RT / Exception Vector Name: Address Error

« on: August 30, 2007, 09:01:07 PM »

Having gone through the simulated Demo board portion of the tutorial, I'm now starting with the actual Demo board version of the tutorial, using version 1.3 of Freescale's CodeWarrior.  I've used this software extensively with the Freescale WebServer example, but I can't get it to work with the uTasker example. I can erase and program and verify the chip on the Demo board, but as soon as I try to run the program, I get an error that reads "Exception Vector Name: Address Error".  There is a reference to DummyFn1, which shows up in the Maps but nowhere in the code.  I'm not sure it's the source of the error. In any case, I have no idea how to proceed from here and would appreciate whatever help you can give.
Thanks.
