Embedded Module for ARM with lpc2478 and lcd MI0430FT

[IgorZ]

Hi everyone,

 I have LPC2478 and LCD monitor MI0430FT. How I can in LabVIEW 2010 Embedded Module for ARM Microcontrollers program LPC2478, what to receive the front panel my VI?

There are examples on this theme?

Many thanks for any information.

IgorZ,

          The LPC2478 is a Tier 2 device for the LabVIEW for ARM Module. This tutorial (http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/6994) walks you through adding support for your Tier 2 device in LabVIEW so that you can program and download code just like a Tier 1 device. Hope this helps!

Grant, many thanks for the answer!

How to define to what еTier of controlers belongs LPC2478?

In the table (http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/7066) Labview doesn't support at controlers Tier2 operation with PWM, Analog I/O, Digital I/0, but it was possible to me by means of LabVIEW Embedded for ARM to use these functions for LPC2478, on it I have drawn an output that LPC2478 belongs to Tier1 and hoped that I can work with LCD. I am mistaken?

It is possible to use MCB2300 for programming LPC24XX?

The difference between Tier1 and Tier2 support is just like that article explains is that Tier1 have prebuilt VIs in the LV for ARM module that give users most of the functionality that the chip offers. If your chip is not one of the 3 Tier1 chips and it shows up on this database (http://www.keil.com/rl-arm/chips.asp) then it will be a Tier2 device and you will have to build up the functionality yourself following the Porting Guide I linked before. I'm sure you can add functionality for your LCD screen connected to your LPC2478 but you will have to port it into LabVIEW following that tutorial.

Hi,

The LPC 2478 is really close to the LPC 2468 which is used in the MCB2400 evaluation board (tier 1 device).

The only difference between the two µc is the LCD Controller (STN and TFT).

You should be able to use the LPC 2478 directly with LabVIEW Embedded for ARM. 

But if you want to use the LCD Controller, you have to create specific function in c code. 

Do not hesitate if you have further questions

Best regards,

Thanks for ideas, now I try to create the target for LPC2478.

MCB2400 - there are no drivers for operation with LCD, they are only in MCB2300.

Prompt where I need to change C code for operation with LCD.

Best regards, IgorZ
