Low battery
Sandman Tue May 05, 2015 7:14 pm
Hello, i have built a gamebuino and my sd card slod havent arrived yet, so i decided to upload the hex file with Xloader. When i turn on the gamebuino it shows the logo and the low battery screen. I have tried to change the settings but with no result. Thanks for your help

I'm not an hardware expert but it's probably because your battery wiring is different from the Gamebuino's. What you can do is recompile the game/program you want to run but using a modified library with the battery check disabled. If you look at the source code of the Gamebuino library (here: https://github.com/Rodot/Gamebuino/blob/master/libraries/Gamebuino/settings.c) you can see that you can disable battery monitoring at line 38:
If this doesn't work then I'm not sure what you could do, except further removing battery checks from the library
- Code: Select all
#define ENABLE_BATTERY 1 //disable battery monitoring
If this doesn't work then I'm not sure what you could do, except further removing battery checks from the library

No need to recompile the games, simply upload settings.hex and set the critical battery level to 0. It should do the trick ;)
