Title: Device.mcUID values
Post by: michal on August 06, 2016, 02:08:01 am

Does the Device.mcUID have any relationship to the UID on the modules and in mcStudio?

For example I get the following:
UID 00.01.08.5F is mcUID 67679.
UID 00.01.08.67 is mcUID 67687.

And so forth.

Regards,
Michal

Hello.
This is hex to decimal conversion.
Hex 00.01.08.5F = decimal 67679

Ahh! of course. I had an inkling it might be something like that.

I haven't dealt with hex for a very long time so it didn't quite click.

Thanks!

Just wondering. Are there any undocumented functions or options for ToString that allow for integer to hexadecimal conversion?

The ToString("X8") would work. There are also ToString() functions for DateTime with undocumented features. This will be documented in the next release.

There appears to be no difference between these two:

Code: [Select]

Public UID As String = Device.mcUID().ToString("X8")
Public UID As String = Device.mcUID().ToString()

Perhaps sit's unimplemented? No error generated.

We will look into this. Which version of the firmware are you running?

Post by: michal on August 10, 2016, 04:22:36 pm

On the modules I have firmware V0.7-361.
On the gateway I have host processor firmware V0.7-406 and application processor firmware V0.6-360.
My mcStudio is version V0.7-895.

You are correct. This is a bug and we have fixed it. There will be a release soon to resolve this issue.
