Hellow,

I am trying to connect Uno32 (http://store.digilentinc.com/search.php?Search=&search_query=uno32) with chipkit wifi shield (http://store.digilentinc.com/chipkit-wifi-shield-add-on-board/),and I used MPIDE.

I used the example of digilent (downlod 2:https://reference.digilentinc.com/chipkit_shield_wifi:chipkit_shield_wifi)

However,MPIDE kept displaying "does not support this board" also,the wifi shield board on the Uno32 didn't light any light.I guess they didn't connect

I am not sure whether I need to set up something before connecting or not If not,why the Uno32 and wifi shield board couldn't connect ? :(

thanks

Unfortunately the WiFi shield and the Uno32 don't go together. The Uno32 doesn't have the resources (SRAM) needed to run the IP stack.

Instead you need (at least) the uC32 which has twice the memory of the Uno32.

I confused the problem too,but in the chipkit example which I used write: [color=#FF0000]Supported hardware: / / / / Most / All Uno32 Shield form factor boards with a WiFiShield / / For example the Uno32, uC32, WF32[/color]

I have another quetion,neither uno32 nor Uc32 couldn't work by the example.Is it possible the example code wrong?

I'm a tiro,I just contact this job one month,if I ask some stupid question or common sense I am so sorry.

The example you have is wrong.

There is no need to download anything, MPIDE already contains everything you need. The main library, DEWFcK, and its examples, plus the HTTPServer library are all built in to the IDE.

Also you should really be using either UECIDE or chipKIT-core in the Arduino IDE since MPIDE has been deprecated.

Thanks for your help.

I tried the example which already contains in MPIDE.It still couldn't work. I will try to use UECIDE.I wish that can successful. I want to ask "chipKIT-core in the Arduino IDE" my arduino IDE only support arduino boards,but I only have chipkit boards.Where can I get chip-core? :roll:

thanks.

Even with the current version of the software your Uno32 is still not going to have enough RAM. You need a meatier board.

I tried UECIDE but it seems not support uc32?

The boards I used are uc32+wifi shield and the wifi shield with SD cards.

I also tried arduinoIDE,it worked !!! My goal is make a car move by joyistick like a web or app control

But I strait that how to make a joystick for arduinoIDE and how to connect Web and board and how to control like these examples
