Martins tip about the 1hz flashing led solved the problem. I forgot to connect pin 5 of the display to ground, so my project was running just fine only the display could not display anything. So from now on whenever I have a spare IO port I will always have the led within my project. Thanks Martin f...

Thank you Martin for your reply. I have checked the topic and have seen a lot of options I did not try so this evening I will give it a new try. One additional question. About 1.5 year ago I was always able to program devices on the EB-006 with Eblocks connected. I did not work with Flowcode for som...

I need help. I have made a project in Flowcode V4 and V5 that was perfectly running on my EB-006 board with Eblocks. Now I made my stand alone board but even the most simple things will not work. What I did for example was the attached programm. (Note the display is not connected the default way as ...

I recognize some of this problem. In my situation I installed the PPP driver and the programmer connected to one of the two USB ports in the front of my PC after a few days I reconnect the programmer and used the other port. I could do what ever I want the programmer did not work. I then installed p...

The 18F6722 has two EUSART's EUSART1 is on port RC6 (RX) and RC7 (TX) EUSART2 is on port RG1 (RX) and RG2 (TX)
If you want to use flow control you are able to select any pin of the ports A-E The flow control pins are user selectable.

//char Copy_File(char* Filename, char* New_Filename){}
//char Create_Folder(char* Folder_Name){}

could also be useful

One sensor with two notches is also posible in a case where it is not needed to be able to detect turning direction.

Flowcode is realy fun, and it doesn't take to long to figure out the basics of making a program with it. For what you are willing to do i think an interupt is not suitable becours the time between picking up the signal from the sensor and the moment you need a spark will variate depending on the rot...

Hi, I have tried to make you an example to understand how to work with interupts. This example rises the value on the display as follows. The upper line rises by one 300 times a second ( this is not visual in simulation ) and the real display is to slow to display at this speed. The lower line rises...

Try this:
Put the clock jumpers to OSC and place the switches as follows.
SW1 - Fast
SW2 - RC

Hello Jan, You did nothing wrong. A simulair problem I had with 12f609. What possible went wrong is that the pins used to program the chip now are configured in a way the eb006 will not allow you to reprogram the chip. When you put the chip in a programmer like easyprog or wellon you are able to pro...

I would output High on the pin the one wire device is connected to instead of making it float and pulled p by the resistor. I really don't know if this works the same as making it High with the mosfet but it sound to me as working the same. Remember to disable the output on this pin before trying to...

By the way there are a lot more PIC chips that have these setting by default on Comparator.

I have some problems with taking always the defaults. For example see this Topic . It took me days to find out why my program was running well in simulation and did not work in the hardware. For these kind of settings it was very handy to have a option selection to set the option of using the Compar...

Hello, I have trouble using GP0 and GP1 as digital input on the pic12f609. After reading the datasheet I found a possible error in the FCD file that belogs to this chip. Am I right that the line containing Initialise="" must be Initialise="ansel = 0;\n" to use GP0 and GP1 as digital input ? Or is th...

And even a program this simple will not work.

Hello, After I program a 12F609 on my eb006 board I'm not able to reprogram the chip anymore. How can this be solved. I programmed with the configuration shown in the attachment When i try to reprogramm I get the error shown in the attachment I can reprogram the chip in my stand alone programmer wit...

The problem is solved Jumper J18 J19 had a bad contact I replaced it now all works fine

I have had to changed Fail-Safe Clock monitor to enabled and Brown Out voltage to 2.7 Now my program starts but is running about 30 times slower as it must run. Edit I found the problem. I only need to change 'Brown Out voltage to 2.7' remove jumper J18 J19 from the board and directly connect a xtal...

I try to get the attached program to work in a PIC18F4620 but unfortantly I can not find the right settings por this pic can anyone help me ? I have changed C:\Program Files\Matrix Multimedia\Flowcode V4\BoostC\boostc.pic16.flowcode.exe to C:\Program Files\Matrix Multimedia\Flowcode V4\BoostC\boostc...

Thank you medelec35 for your reply. this is verry intresting, I can cut the string values to a smaller size in my example I only use 2 digits for the largest string. But the biggest problem is that my ROM memorie is full with this programm I do not understand what is using so mutch bytes. And becour...

If you already used timer0, you know the frequentie on witch this timer0 works. Just add a counter to it and place the routine you want to run every 5 minutes behind a "if" before this "if" you make a calculation "{LV} = Counter MOD {the number of times your timer0 is run in 5 minutes}" Now the "if"...

Hello, I'm new to flowcode and to my opinion, somehow I do something wrong. I made this first programm and run out of programm memory. What I see is that the Analog inputs I use in the macro 'Analog_input' are using 1037 program words and the calculation made in the same macro 236. In my opinion the...
