Newbi init and stops working after a while

The code "works" ie it give me some nice LED's
The problem is, it stops working after a time.

// our main function
function puckLeds(){
  let leds= 0;
  let timerId = null;

  digitalWrite([LED3,LED2,LED1], leds);

  // watch for the Big Red Button
  setWatch(function() {
    if ( timerId !== null){
      clearTimeout(timerId);
    } 
    leds = (leds + 1)%7;
    digitalWrite([LED3,LED2,LED1], leds);
    timerId = setTimeout(function () {
    digitalWrite([LED3,LED2,LED1], 0);
    }, 10000);
  }, BTN, {edge:"falling", debounce:100, repeat:true}); 
}

// ensure that the code is available after reload or whatever
E.on('init', function() {
  console.log("hello");
  puckLeds();
});

save();

Edit after input below.
Placement of pulldown did not seem to work
pinMode(BTN,"input_pulldown");

function puckLeds(){
  let leds= 0;
  let timerId = null;

  digitalWrite([LED3,LED2,LED1], leds);

  setWatch(function() {
    // pinMode(BTN,"input_pulldown");
    if ( timerId !== null){
      clearTimeout(timerId);
    } 
    leds = (leds + 1)%7;
    digitalWrite([LED3,LED2,LED1], leds);
    timerId = setTimeout(function () {
    digitalWrite([LED3,LED2,LED1], 0);
    }, 10000);
  }, BTN, {edge:"falling", debounce:100, repeat:true}); 
  pinMode(BTN,"input_pulldown");
}

E.on('init', function() {
  console.log("hello");
  puckLeds();
});

save();

Have you updated your firmware? As it comes the Puck.js firmware had some issues keeping the pulldown resistor on the button.

No update: as supplied to ensure I know what gets supplied to my friends if they order one :)
I update it via the GUI.

[espruino-discuss]

Posted at 2017-02-03 by OwenBrotherwood

Or RTFM and find it is not via GUI :)
And find that "FIRMWARE UPDATES" has no info for windows (I create PR if wished).

"FIRMWARE UPDATES" could do with a quick link instead of reading down the page.

I use the already installed sw for windows and give it a go.

OK: you are going to love this ...
I only have a Windows mobile and a Windows PC.
nRF Connect v1.1 for Windows needs to be googled more: doesn't seem to have bluetooth, just usb

I get back on this one.

Posted at 2017-02-03 by OwenBrotherwood

• nRF Connect v1.1 for windows does not allow me to use "Start Scan"
• the puck.js apears as DfuTarg on Windows when put into the correct mode.

I try and do forum scans at nordic/google.

Evidence of problems before the so called anniversity version of windows 10

As a newbie, I presumed the GUI would update the device, clearer indication that the puck.js is not flasher-able: so very easy as the receiver of a puck.js just to look thru the GUI and think "great, flasher" (until one reads what is clearly written)

Better yet, use the info from "Request board details on connect" and allow for specific menu/dialogs in question with Flasher. (I will remember to make an issue of this)

It will do eventually - however I'm waiting for:

• Chrome to implement Web Bluetooth for Windows (which they will do soon hopefully)
• Nordic to implement a Secure Firmware update for Web Bluetooth - which they also say they're doing

I don't mention Windows because I don't believe the Nordic tools offer it for Windows yet - at least not unless you have an nRF-DK. I did ask them if it were possible and they said they might look into it.

use the info from "Request board details on connect" and allow for specific menu/dialogs in question with Flasher.

This is exactly what the IDE does for other boards, but I've turned it off for now because it'll just annoy everyone if they can't update with the IDE.

If you want to fix it without a firmware update, just add pinMode(BTN,"input_pulldown") after setWatch

nRF Connect v1.1 is available for windows but seems not to support bluetooth

nRF Connect v1.1: no support for Windows 10 without a dongle
so looks like I have to find an android or iThingy in the cupboard: no problem

Hi,

Yes, nRF Connect v1.1 does support connection to BLE devices on
Windows 10, but it does require a nRF51/52 DK/dongle for
communication. Built-in BLE HW will not work as nRF Connect relies on
serialized softdevice commands and not HCI.

Look at the documentation in our inforcenter.

Best Regards,

Martin

Edit:
Probably something like this https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.nordic.infocenter.sdk5.v12.0.0%2Flib_serialization.html

but it does require a nRF51/52 DK/dongle for communication

Since you have an nRF52DK you could just use that?

[espruino-discuss]

Posted at 2017-02-04 by OwenBrotherwood

Yep: that was what I was thinking (also thinking of comments concerning uses of a nRF52X PCB :) from Espurino)

[espruino-discuss]

Posted at 2017-02-04 by OwenBrotherwood

And that it looks like the nRF Connect is a node product with an nRF core js

[espruino-discuss]

Posted at 2017-02-04 by OwenBrotherwood

I can confirm https://www.nordicsemi.com/eng/Products/Bluetooth-low-energy/nRF-Connect-for-desktop :

• on windows, the nRF connect is an electron app, asar package
• on ubuntu/linux, the nRF connect is an electron app, luckly not asar: pack out and cherry pick js
• on OS X, I have not enough money for an apple :)

It seems the techy aspects of bluetooth with browser is Wait for Chrome but does that give the techy "serialized softdevice commands" with two outcomes:

1. puck.js can only be updated by an android/iPhone app that is not within Espruino control (no windows possible)
2. something may work in windows os: but don't hold yr breath timeframes and possibilities are unknown

Roll on Windows Desktop on Canonical Ubuntu: Xenix returns, with possible internal MS project name "Phoenix": but this is outside of the problem at hand.

Edit: package.json

"author": "Nordic Semiconductor ASA",
  "license": "Proprietary",

Edit:
A lot of code on Nordics github and unknown if "what is needed" is there.

Edit:
DFU seems to be https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/secure-dfu-web-bluetooth
with a keyword Esruino in the package.json

Breadcrumbs
https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/secure-dfu-web-bluetooth with Espruino as a package.json keyword leads to a

A google on bluetooth-hci-socket gives a https://github.com/sandeepmistry/node-bluetooth-hci-socket

And a WIP which does not need any comments: I just edit this post to document for myself where the trail lead on Windows 10

Edit
The bluetooth in my device is supported:

Intel Wireless Bluetooth 7265	0x8087	0x0a2a

Edit:
zadig did it's work: bluetooth not available to Windows 10, and hoping available for the node of things

Edit:
Don't skip steps, go thru the doc and examples to make sure the base of DFU works when there, even if unnessary (DFU could work) time well spent

Coffee time and find out what it all means

Chrome for windows has web ble http://forum.espruino.com/conversations/299715/

Except, it doesn't seem to work, so I need a reference machine.
Virtual Box Ubuntu. Ensure that the host Windows 10 is NOT using bluetooth, Devices->uninstall driver for bluetooth device and delete files.

Then make sure that Virtual Box has Devices->USB->enable access to bluetooth adapter

However, nRF needs a certain type of adapter on all platforms it seems, not only windows.
So only supported on iPhone and Android as low energy and then it will work
