Generating Code with spreadsheet for Keyboard Assignments of CADSOFT Eagle

Posted on by

I needed a way of Generating Code, lots of code.   In cadsoft eagle, the Keyboard Assignments are completely user customizable.  They have a script language that allows you to modify the software.  I’ve used hundreds of the ULP and SCRs and decided to write my own Generator.

Necessity is the mother of all innovation.  Screen Shot 2015-09-14 at 12.56.34 AM Screen Shot 2015-09-14 at 12.56.45 AM Screen Shot 2015-09-14 at 12.56.52 AM Screen Shot 2015-09-14 at 12.56.59 AM Screen Shot 2015-09-14 at 12.57.04 AM Screen Shot 2015-09-14 at 12.58.37 AM Screen Shot 2015-09-14 at 12.58.44 AM Screen Shot 2015-09-14 at 12.58.50 AM

 

On Compressing the English Language

Posted on by

Someone picked my brain the other day looking for a technique to compress language files.

After walking away to think about it… my method was to re-order the ASCII code to the letters by their frequency and the most common words by their frequency.

Where lowercase e is stored as an ASCII value using 1 byte
ASCII  e = 0x61 = 0b1100001 = 7 bits
vs
APK e = 0x1 = 1 bit

… this method stores an E in 1 bit.  This is similar to the Huffman Code with the addition of whole words being included in the code.

For example:

“because” is the 94th most used word in the english language and in this method is stored in 7 bits.

I don’t know if this has been done before… but I would imagine it could compress Language files substantially.

I have thought about a third addition of using the most used 2 or three letter combinations commonly used.

APK ORDER APK LET FREQ WORD FEQ APK BIN APK HEX APK BITS USED

1 e 12.70% 1 1 1

GREEN HOME MONITORING SYSTEM

Title: GREEN HOME MONITORING SYSTEM – TRANSMITTER
Author: ANTHONY P KUZUB
DATE: 2015 04 01
Description:

REMOTE MONITORING TRANSMITTER

The GREEN HOME MONITORING SYSTEM controls, monitors then transmits the
status of three room lights to a remote monitoring station.

The code below is the local control and transmitter

Three light switches along with motion sensors control the functionality
of the rooms lights.

When the system is enabled:
The light turns on When motion is detected.
Once motion is detected a five second counter Starts.
If motion is not detected within the five seconds The light shut
off saving power.

When the system is disabled:
The light switch controls The light Directly.

A Peak Power cost value is captured based on the time of day.
To Test this feature: apply a slowly 10mHz Sine wave 1.25
Vpp with offset of 0.625V offset to TP7

This moving sine wave is converted to digital by means of A/D convertor

This power cost value is displayed on the segment display
Indicating the value of power throughout the day.

The Status of The System state, switch position, motion detection, Light
status, and Energy cost, are transmitted to a remote monitoring station
via serial port 1.

Author: ANTHONY P KUZUB
DATE: 2015 04 01
Description:

The GREEN HOME MONITORING SYSTEM controls, monitors then transmits the
status of three room lights to a remote monitoring station.

The code below is the remote monitoring station

This program receives 2 bytes of data from the transmitter through
Serial port 1. The data is decoded and displayed on a screen by access
of serial port 2 of the controller.

A workstations TERMINAL session connects a a com port to the hardware receiver.

SESSION CONFIGURATION:
BAUD RATE: 9600
DATA BITS: 8
PARITY: NONE
FLOW CONTROL: NONE
EMULATION: ANSI

The Status of the system, switch positions, motion detection, Light status,
and Energy PEAK VALUE displayed on the terminal screen.

Screen Layout

A Changing Peak Power cost is applied proportionaly to room cost acumulators.

By Pressing the respective key on the terminal keyboard, the rooms cost will
reset to zero.

Please note that with the exception of the push buttons all states are
ACTIVE HIGH
