Anyone used a BlinkM?

[Oper8rAl]

I picked up a blinkM and have been trying to get it to interface to a bs2. I have been using the sample code they provided but only one section of it actually works. I have kind of cobbled together different parts that somewhat work but I can't seem to get it to work together. I have been reading through the i2c N&V columns and the data sheet for the blinkM but I am still having problems. Has any one else tried to do this or maybe have some working code I can build off of.  I will attach the code and a link for data sheet for the BlinkM. Any help appreciated.

Thanks,

Al

Here is the link for the Data Sheet:http://thingm.com/fileadmin/thingm/downloads/BlinkM_datasheet.pdf

Out of curiosity, how are you connecting to the Prop-2?

BTW... here's a column I wrote on using I2C with the BS2.

I have it hooked up to a bs2 not a prop 2. I just thought with people using the prop2 more for props and lighting someone might have some experience with it. Sorry if this is not a proper post. I will delete it if it violates the rules. I have been reading that N&V column and trying to get it to work with the blinkM. but I'm not sure how to send the proper commands in the format it needs.

Yep, bad form, my friend.  We cannot afford to support products we didn't sell you unless you're connecting them to something we did. Parallax has a great support forum, please use it for your non-EFX-TEK, BS2-based projects.
