Windows 10 Laptop

Ditza

How do we go about connecting the metawear C to a windows 10 laptop using a BLE USB adaptor?  

The DLL's on website do not compile - we tried: "Metawear Csharp wrapper" for "Metawear (Windows phone 8.1)"

Any suggestions?

We just uploaded tutorial videos about using the C++ API in a Universal Windows Platform app.

Thanks for the tutorial. We cannot load the metawear project to visual studio - see screen shot of error:

Any ideas?

Eric

Did you install the Universal Windows App development tools?

Ditza

Yes we did

Ditza

Eric, Is there any other info you need to help us figure it out? 

Eric

I'm not sure then.  You can try making a new C# Universal Windows app to see if fixes the issue.  Copy the xaml and C# files and add the MetaWear.WinRT package from NuGet.

Alternatively, you can see if the UWP starter template works for you.

Still unsuccessful  Windows for Metawear. 

Do you have a solution for  .NET without Win10SDK and UWP?  

Eric

No, those are the only two vs solutions we have. I get that you are having issues importing the sample code but, can you create a "hello world" C# universal Windows app? If so, then I'd start there and copy bits and pieces of the netawear code over.

Made some progress with Windows 10. But now we cannot get  the device to start.

See error message 

Do you have a compiled working exec for Windows 10?

Eric

A few people have reported the same driver error on the forum.  This issue seems to be plaguing other BLE devices as well, such as the FitBit.

We do not have any MetaWear apps in the Windows store.
