Round-up August Progress Update!

I've been mostly working on the PC software side and things seem to be going well.   I managed to get the hardware detection working; it wasn't as nicely implemented as I had wished for, but it works, and I could always update the code later.

Most of today was spent on the "upload" code;  this allows the user to send firing profiles directly to the controller;  one part had me stumped for a good while until I managed to resolve it.


The only bit of code to complete now is the code to combine or merge multiple profiles into a single programme set;  but once that's complete the software should have all the features required for practical use.



I've ordered another batch of components to populate some more boards; so when they arrive I can get my soldering iron fired-up and ready to go! ;-)

I was planning on doing a demo of the controller but things didn't go as quick as I had hoped;  so - I just left it;  but I'm still hoping to do some once the final PC software is complete.
