The
demo version of BASCOM-AVR does include the simulator and debugger as per
the full version. The only difference is the 4K limitation.
ABC
MAXI-Board (Hot Chip) Software.
The
ABC Maxi Board Hot Chip (as supplied by Dick Smith Electronics Australia)
now works with Dontronics AVR software. Any software that uses the DT006
type of programming interface, will now work with these Maxi-boards.

Statements
are 99% compatible with Microsoft’s Qbasic.
Are
you a Dontronics AVRBasic (SiStudios) owner and would like to cross upgrade
to Bascom-Avr? Ask for our special price. Proof of purchase is needed.
This offer is made only by Dontronics, not MCS Electronics, so please don't
ask MCS for any special pricing.
BASCOM-AVR
does not come with a printed manual. There is a PDF file of the helpfile
on the MCS website and all docs
The
DEMO version can be downloaded from:
http://www.mcselec.com/index.php?option=com_docman&task=cat_view&gid=99&Itemid=54
Has
4K bytes in demo mode. This is better than the BS1, and it's free.

for the latest application notes in PDF format.
Have
a look at dt006_programming.html
for
a No Parts AVR Programmer , and free windows software to drive it.
Now
is that cost effective or what?
Yes
the STK500 is supported. You need to install AVR Studio that comes with
the STK500. This will install stk500.exe that is used by BASCOM.

Hi
Don, I got the AVR kits up and running in no time, the BASCOM compiler
is
a
joy to use! (Unlike that pig of a thing I bought from Dick Smith
Electronics)
As
the AT90S1200 has NO SRAM, BASCOM-AVR can't support it.
BASCOM-AVR
BASCOM-AVR1©
is
a Windows BASIC COMPILER for the AVR family.
It
is designed to run on
W95/W98/NT
Key

Structured
BASIC with labels.
Structured
programming with IF-THEN-ELSE-END IF, DO-LOOP, WHILE-WEND, SELECT- CASE.

machine code instead of interpreted code.
Variables
and labels can be as long as 32 characters.
Bit,
Byte, Integer, Word, Long, and String variables. (SINGLE in BETA)
Compiled
programs work with all AVR microprocessors that have internal memory.
Statements
are highly compatible with Microsoft’s VB/QB.
Special
commands for LCD-displays , I2C chips and 1WIRE chips.
Integrated
terminal emulator with download option..
Integrated
simulator for testing.
Integrated
ISP programmer (application note AVR910.ASM).
Integrated

To
make a program takes just a few steps :
Write
the program in BASIC
Compile
it to fast machine binary code
Test
the result with the integrated simulator(with additional hardware you can
simulate the hardware too).
Program
the chip with one of the integrated programmers.
(hardware
must be purchased separately)
The
simulator let you test your program before writing it to the uP.
You
can watch variables, step through the program one line at the time or run
to a specific line,
or
you can alter variables.
To
watch a variables value you can also point the mouse cursor over it.
uP
TAB of simulator
A powerful
feature is the hardware emulator, to emulate the LCD display, and the ports.
The
LCD emulator also emulates custom build LCD characters!
You
can even simulate the hardware ports with the special basmon monitor program!
When
you are done with the simulator it is time to program the chip using one
of the supported programmer drivers.
The
program, documentation and samples are in English.
Standard
& Prof. Edition
There
can be some confusion about this subject. There will only be one edition:
BASCOM-AVR or BASCOM-AVR Standard Edition.
It
will have all features that were intended for the prof. edition. But these
features will be added step by step since implementing and testing them
needs time.

Laszlo Juhasz Hello Don, First of all let me tell you that the BASCOM
software is one of the best investment I've ever made for computers! :)
It's a really great product and I'm continuously amazed by the performance
of the software. Even my wife (who has no technical background!) likes
it. Anyway.-Congratulation and hope you’re making a fortune with this and
I’m highly recommending your product to anyone I ever talk. |
