My last posting detailed getting my Arduino displaying a temperature sensor on a LCD. That worked fine. Soon after that I took delivery of a Netduino. A Netduino is \u2026 well \u2026 to quote from http:\/\/www.netduino.com\/<\/font><\/u><\/a>:<\/p>\n

Netduino is an open source electronics platform using the .NET Micro Framework. Featuring a 32-bit microcontroller and a rich development environment. Suitable for engineers and hobbyists alike.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

It\u2019s basically an Arduino that you program via the .NET language. I\u2019ve not used Microsoft languages for yonks, so why buy one of these things? Well, I\u2019ve not used Microsoft languages for yonks. Might be fun to play with them again. Maybe \"Smile\". <\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

So my plan was to take what I\u2019d done before, but this time, put the temperature sensor on the Netduino and transmit the data to the Arduino (using the RF link transmitter and receiver shown at http:\/\/is.gd\/f4n3Q<\/a>), and the Arduino LCD would display it. I spent quite a few hours working on it last Friday evening. A lot of pain was caused by learning some basics of .NET and C# (many thanks yellowduino on the #arduino irc channel). I fiddled with it relentlessly Friday evening and bits of Saturday and Sunday. I stopped trying to transmit the temperature and instead just worried about transmitting a set string.  But I just could not communicate from the Netduino to the Arduino. <\/p>\n

Not quite true. I could see things \u2018changed\u2019 when I switched the Netduino on \u2013 the data on the arduino might show signs of seeing something. But what i was actually transmitting from the Netduino was never displayed on the Arduino LCD. I switched anything that could possibly interfere off but nothing. Eventually, Sunday evening, I gave in. I really didn\u2019t mind that much, I learnt a lot and that, rather than the accomplishment, was important. But still \u2026 <\/p>\n

This Friday evening I switched it all back on again and it worked first time. First time. <\/p>\n
