I'm working on a data logger that has a lot of sensors.sure would be good for the system to report sensor failures rather than just stop working. Start developing your next Arduino project at the click of a button. Install the Arduino Extension from within Visual Studio.
#Visual micro arduino 1.6 update
VisualMicro To update your Arduino driver, follow these steps: Plug in.
#Visual micro arduino 1.6 install
Download & Install an Arduino Compatible IDE for full compatability (Arduino/Energia) 3. Arduino is free to download from Note: Use 1.6.9 - Arduino 1.6.10+.

In addition to tweaking the code so that it doesn't hang, please consider consider adding an error flag. Download & Install Visual Studio from Microsoft for free. Instead of using a while loop, I used a for loop with a max of 255 tries before returning. if the soil sensor loses power, it returns 65535. There are other ways that this code will hang. A delay of 5000 took only a single call to read to getĪ valid result, where as a delay of 2500 took 2 reads, 1000 took 3 reads, and 500 took 4 or 8 reads. Solution is to lengthen delay and only try a finite number of times. While loop continues to request read until returns something other than 65535, which it never does. If your Arduino version is 1.6.3 +, you need to use Visual Micro beta since Visual Micro stable supports for Arduino 1.6.1 or earlier. If delay too brief, device returns 65535 and code hangs because Issue seemed to be duration of optional delay between request sent to soilsensor and reading soilsensor. Code worked with Arduino Mega 2560 but hung in read() when executed on ESP32. In brief: TouchRead doesn not work on ESP32 DEVKIT V1 using Adafruit soilsensor.

One more quick note: I had to use the latest version the Visual Micro plugin then added the board with the standard Arduino program by following the instruction on the " " page explaining how to update the board manager with the latest ESP8266 board.Arduino IDE version (found in Arduino -> About Arduino menu): Arduino 1.6/1.8 in Visual Studio 2019 set for Adafruit ESP feather. The smart cover is made of non-slip rubbery material. It also ultra-slim and portable, it has a slim 0.3-inch profile, weights 1.6 lb without the cover and 2.5 lb with the cover. Even if I tried the "Tools/VisualMicro/Rebuild Tool Chain" the switch from ESP8266 board to Arduino and back was required before builds would successfully work. And offers 178-degree full viewing angle, 10001 contrast ratio, 300cd/m²brightness. Something is not correctly be set when leaving the "tools/options" menus. Next by comparing outputs from the original Arduino 1.6.4 build I was able to find the missing folders that MicroVisual was looking for and copied them to the sketch/hardware folder.Īlso noticed when testing build from Visual Studio I had to change the board type from ESP8266 to an Arduino board choice and back to the ESP8266 before building. Then pointing the "Tools/Options/Visual Micros/Application Ide Locations" for the ESP8266 board to my Arduino-1.6.4 directory, then the sketch directory to my sketch directory with the hardware folder where the "ESP Arduino IDE" was unpacked. I started by downloading the "ESP Arduino IDE" and unpacking to my "Sketch/hardware" directory. Next build and ESP sketch, again with verbose on from "Tools/Options/VisualMicro/verbose" set to true. Then review the verbose output, there you'll find where all the files being included are. For Visual Studio 2013 With Arduino 1.6.4, set "Preferences/Show verbose output during compilation" checked, and build and esp sketch.
