Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
So, any details on the SD slot? Very early versions had it but it “wasn’t supported”. Which pins is the SD slot connected to?
I just updated the Arduino website with the details for the new shield: http://arduino.cc/en/Main/ArduinoEthernetShield
The SD card is on the SPI bus (pins 11, 12, and 13 on the Duemilanove), with pin 4 serving as the slave select line.
Looks very good imho. Next step a RTC to make it the ultimate logshield. (please!)
[not tested yet]
For using the SDCARD one needs only a minimal change in the sdfat library: Open the file ArduinoPins.h and search for #define SS_PIN and change the pin number. Watch out to patch the right #define SS_PIN as it occurs multiple times.
cheers,
I’m a bit confused by this new shield – the updated documentation states:
“The latest revision of the shield adds a micro-SD card slot, which can be used to store files for serving over the network.”
Then it also states:
“Note that because the W5100 and SD card share the SPI bus, only one can be active at a time.”
Is it really possible to pull files from the SD card over the Ethernet? If so could a client/broswer pull a file using the following format: http://10.10.10.1/file-to-snag.txt?
Thanks!
Nate
@nate – please post these questions up in the forums, thanks!
