ES9018 I2C controller

[pixelpusher]

I compiled with arduino 1.0.1 and arduino 1.6.6
In arduino 101 fails to compile, in 166 it compiles but I can not find atmega644 in boards list, even if I copy atmega644 libraries in arduino hardware folder.
I will attach two text files from the two versions of arduino.

Regarding the Arduino IDE 1.66 issue, I remember reading something about having to edit some kind of preference file for it to see the atmega644. That's why I went back to 1.01

Now I get this message with 1.0.1

Binary sketch size: 26,598 bytes (of a 63,488 byte maximum)
avrdude: stk500_getsync(): not in sync: resp=0x00

That error has to do with communications with your board. Possible causes are, No boot loader, wrong com port chosen or wrong board chosen. If I recall, I had that error when using my Macbook Air. Never did get it to work with the Mac. Had to go to a Windows machine.

 

[schultzsch]

I`ve uploaded the code but the display is dead.
I didn`t change the line you suggested.
Could be maybe for this?

 

[pixelpusher]

I'm using a Rev C OLED so I include the CharacterOLED.h library. For Rev A OLED you would include OLEDFourBit.h.

 

[schultzsch]

It`s getting a little bit over my knowledge...
I will try to read more maybe I will get able to modify de code.

Thanks

 

[schultzsch]

I`ll write the steps of what I`m doing maybe it`s something wrong

1. In the SabreCE folder I delete CharacterOLED.cpp and CharacterOLED.h
2. Start arduino ide and open from examples SabreCE sketch.
3. In SabreCE.ino I change this line #include "CharacterOLED.h" into //#include "CharacterOLED.h"
4. In SabreController.h I change this line //#define CHARACTER_OLED
into this one #define CHARACTER_OLED

If I do only the first 3 steps the code compiles but when uploading to controller the display it won`t light up.
If I do step 4 too the code won`t compile giving some errors.

 

[schultzsch]

I did exactly the stept you said you did and now works

A BIG THANKS!

 

[pixelpusher]

Your welcome, glad I could help.

The encoder works very strange.
Do I have to connect A and B channels to V+ with pullup resistors?

 

[pixelpusher]

I hooked up rotary encoder today and indeed it does not work. Looking through the code i see no reference to a rotary encoder. It does not seem to be enabled. Too bad! I guess we can only hope that Robert or someone with programming ability takes an interest in this.

 

[schultzsch]

I don't know why but if I start the controller first and the dac after the dac doesn't catch the default volume settings, I have to restart the controller or send volume command +/-1 and it goes straight to the correct volume level.
Is yours working the same too?
I`m not using the relay command, it`s done by switches.
How do you use your dac sync or async?

 

[pixelpusher]

Yes, mine works the same. If you turn the controller and the DAC on at the same time it seems to work OK though.

I did not think that the power relay worked. What pin are you using?

 

[schultzsch]

I don't use the controller to switch on anything.I have batteries powering up everything, only the controller is powered from 230vac so I need to switch on/off all modules one by one

Today arrived an apple remote and it works good after adding a filter on the power supply pins of the ir receiver.
Do you have any ideas how I can change the minimum volume level from -99dB to let`s say -60dB?

 

[pixelpusher]

You could try changing line 53 in SabreController.h
#define MAX_ATTNU 99

 

[schultzsch]

tried but still the same. 99 will still be the minimum

 

[SCompRacer]

Code! He posted code!

I consider myself fairly smart and capable, but I am code challenged.

 

[pixelpusher]

tried but still the same. 99 will still be the minimum

You are aware that you can set a default attenuation in the menu. Aren't you?

 

[schultzsch]

Yes. I was talking about max attenuation and not default startup volume.
As 100 steps are too much for me I want to use only 50-60 steps to change volume from min to max.

 

[pixelpusher]

probably possible but well beyond me!
