ells new products like the Firefly Interactive Prototyping Shield which mounts on top of your Arduino Uno and provides access to a number of useful input (ie. sensors) and output (ie. motors) devices. It includes features like:
Three linear slide potentiometers connected to analog pins 0, 1, and 2
Two-axis joystick connected to analog pins 3 and 4
Light sensor (photocell) connected to analog pin 5
Three push buttons connected to digital pins 2, 4, and 7
Red LED connected to digital pin 13
RGB LED connected to digital pins 3, 5, and 6
Two servo connections on digital pins 8 and 9
A connection to the Easy Stepper Driver (co-designed by Sparkfun Electronics and Brian Schmalz) to control stepper motors. The direction of the motor is controlled through digital pin 10 and the number of steps through digital pin 12
High-voltage MOSFET circuit capable of driving lights, valves, DC motors, solenoids, or anything else requiring higher voltage or current. The gate of the MOSFET is connected to digital pin 11 (PWM).
Some come take a look and let us know what you think!

l use Rhino 4.0 and corresponding GH version, as a result i could not open your Rhino file.
Hence in your definition as i see,
1) Spring Force-1 -Connection has 11 'inter' components. The inter components do not have any input data and hence 'orange'. What are the inputs for 'inter'?
2) Spring Force - 2 -'Connection'has 1 point component. Rest length & Cut off has 'mass addition' data. This force is also orange, could u throw a light on this please?
3) Pull to surface - both forces has no point input, hence it is orange too. could u throw a light on this too please?
4) There are 2 x Cartesian product components not connected to anything.
I realise that partially it could be because i'm using lower version of Rhino. However, ur input will be highly appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Agneesh…
elated with the Topology outputs:
So let's try to do (via components) the face reconstruction stage (the missing 4 as above):
Alias crenelatedEdgesTree as polylineTree.
Imagine a Lst that samples all the edges per Face ("changed" and "unchanged") as Curves.
1. Let's take face 3: this is surrounded by edges 10,11,12,13 and 37.
2. Has edge 10 "changed" (to polyline) ? No because in the polylineTree there's no branch {10} ... thus sample edge 10 from the EList (Note: apparently that's a boundary edge). Has edge 11 "changed" ? No ... blah, blah.
3. Has edge 12 "changed" ? Yes because in the polylineTree there's a branch {12} ... thus sample the item from that branch. Same for 13 ... etc etc.
4. Thus we have sampled all the surrounding edges as Curves and the next step is to join them > yielding a closed Curve.
5. Then we must "planarize" that Curve (by projecting it into the corresponding Brep Face plane) ... and the rest are history.
So ... try it and report any issue encountered.…
onsecutive points at the same height then your 'Break at discontinuities' component eliminates the middle point completely and then the 'Interpolate Curve' component gives a much bigger bump in the wrong direction. This was enough to get curves to meet from opposite sides.
I fixed this by changing the heights to 1.1 or 2.9, rather than 1.0 and 3.0, but it took a little while to work it out! Sigh.
I attach a new version. But I actually preferred it as it was before. See what you think!

p.s. in the first list, elements 11, 12, 23 and 24 go from 1 to 3; elements 17 and 18 go from 3 to 1. In the second list, elements 6, 17, 18 and 29 go from 1 to 3; elements 12 and 23 go from 3 to 1. Given the above fix, these can be easily seen.…

be done easier, but later on the geometry will change and therefore this seems the better option. But coming back to the problem
First, there were some problems concerning the zone, although it seems solved still the “runenergysimulation” gives the following warning:
1. The simulation has not run correctly because of this severe error:
** Severe ** UpdateZoneSizing: Cooling supply air temperature (calculated) within 2C of zone temperature
Do one of you know what went wrong? It probably will solve most of it.
Second, “set Zone Thresholds” gives the following warning:
1. Solution exception:global name 'maxHumidity_' is not defined
However, the component is missing the max humidity input on the list, has this to do something with the error?
All the components are up to date.
I hope it will be an easy fix.

n trying to find a way of ordering within a 3D point of view according to the position of each of the geometry vertice points (meaning: ordering points from 0 to 11 from lowest to highest position). Help please? :)…
TB of RAM. I think I'm going to start a GoFundMe campaign to buy one for myself :)
2- The server's cost is about $13 an hour. I get free access to supercomputer through my university and xsede.org because I earned an NSF Honorable mention last March, however, the supercomputers available through both resources are a little complicated for me to use, as opposed to the one available from amazon that has Microsoft server 2012 already installed.
3- I wanted to run 400 annual glare simulations for 400 different views.
4- I tried a to perform annual glare simulation for one view on my Dell XPS that has Intel Core i7-6700HQ processor and 16GB of system memory. The simulation took 2 hours to complete. Radiance parameter ab was set to 6.
5- I wanted to obtain the batch file for each view so I can run them on the server. So I used the fly component to run all 400 simulations and closed the cmd windows, that wasn't bad ( for me at least) because I asked my son to this job for me, he was just glad to help me :)
6- I created one batch file using this cmd command:
dir /s /b *.bat > runall.bat
This created a file with the path to each .bat file. I edited this file in Notepad++ to include the word "start" at the beginning of each line. This was done using the "find and replace" dialogue box.
7- I split my newly created batch file into 3 batch files, each one has about 130 file names and " start" before the file names.
8- installed radiance on my server
9- Ran the first batch file on the server, this started 130 cmd windows performing my simulations, CPU usage was anywhere between 90% to 100% and about 105 GB of RAMs were used.
10. It took about 5 hours to complete all 130 simulations, I expected to run all in 2 hours but can't complain because this would've taken about 260 hours to run on my laptop. After the simulations done I ran the second and then the third batch files ( total of about 15 hours).
11. I got 400 valid dgb files. Couldn't be happier!

j.
if the item 0 is (16.76159) in the original list and in the reorderd list is the item n4 (16.76159) I want in a new list that integrates both indices of the number (16.76159) using the structure of the reordered list and replacing the decimal numbers for the corresponding index in the original list.
the new list would look like.
reordered index - original index
0. 11
1. 19
2. 8
etc.
as always, any help is useful.
thanks!

x wrapping on, if I started with position 8 (or 9th element) in the original list, the last "100" of the replacement list will have a replacement index 11 and should be wrapped to position 0 of the original index, but instead it gives an error. Is there a trick to fix this? Thanks a lot!!
