Red Lion Crimson 3.0

That's what I thought, I'll change that next. So far it uploaded without a hitch, all the errors were fixed however the touch screen (G315) is unresponsive. When pressing the touch screen it looks like the brightness slightly changes momentarily (almost not noticeable).

Dan: Is this looking like it needs sent in?

Thanks,
Phil
 
Verify that the touch screen tail is seated properly, if it is, but still doesn't function; yes, I would have it sent back for repair.

Under the Link menu, there is a Support Upload option. If that is checked when you download to the unit, you will be able to extract the file. If it is unchecked, you will not be able to extract the file.

You don't want to use MakeInt() as that does a bit conversion (it takes the exact same bit arrangement and then interprets them as the different data type). Instead, you want to use an inline conversion. I think they are "int(xxxxx)" and "real(xxxxx)" or "float(xxxxx)". The Red Lion does a poor job of drawing attention to the availability of these functions (it's in the regular Crimson manual, not the function help manual).
 
Thank you very much really helped!

One other related hint I forgot to mention:

If do the int() conversion it will simply truncate the real into an integer. For example, 12.1 becomes 12 and 12.9 becomes 12 as well. If you add "0.5" to the real BEFORE you turn it into an integer the end result will be rounded. For example, 12.1 becomes 12 and 12.9 becomes 13.
 
Hello! Why Crimson 3.0 does not work IsDeviceOnline() is always 1. On Crimson 2.0 works without problems

I believe this function returns a 0 only if there have been repeated comm errors. I'm not 100% on this, it's what my experience has been.
