Hi Kenrix2 After changing the ConfigAddress I’ve noticed some other problems. When my board is powered by usb only the first ASCII string send to LCD “Starting” display correct but the second ASCII string display as “PULLILE” instead of “running” When powered from normal 12V power supply the program...

Hi Kenrix Thanks for the reply. I found that there is a clock speed difference even though both pics are using the same 8Mhz crystal & same rtcc crystal. I also found that for some reason even when I remove the 8Mhz crystal the program keeps on running like nothing has changed. Please have a look at...

Hi Guys

Could this be a compiler error?
When I compile my rtcc test program to a pic18f25j50 the usb to serial sends the data to my pc as expected but when I compile to pic18f46j50 the data send to my pc is different and mixed around.

Hi

How can I download and save the fc6 training video's to watch later?

Hi Ben

If I understand correctly then port c 6 & 7 of my pic18f45k22 wil be assigned when I choose hw channel 1 in ext.
Are there any other pins that must be connected except for power, rts & cts?

How do I change the port used in the GSM test program to a different port

Hi Benj

Thanks.. That did the trick
I'm so use to fc doing most of the setup these days that I over look the simple things.
I'm uploading the code as a basis to start from, for other asm users.

Hi Guys

What else can I do to get the RTCC working.
The second counter keep giving me the same value "0x52 0x42"

Hi Martin Thanks for pointing out my noob mistake, getting the clock to run is even more difficult than I thought it would be. I tried to do most of the setup in asm but now I’m stuck getting the date and time data into flowcode Do you know of anyone that managed to get the on chip RTCC running in f...

Hi Martin

Thanks for the reply.
Not sure what I'm doing wrong but I keep getting errors like below.

Breeze RTCC.c(735:26): error: error in built-in assembly
Breeze RTCC.c(737:2): error: error in built-in assembly

Hi

How can I read the values of RTCVALL & RTCVALH into flowcode to send it via USBSerial?
I,m trying to setup the RTCC to display via USBSerial but don't know how to read the values from within flowcode.

Hi kersing

Thanks for the reply, Changed the baud to 38400 now it's working.

This is a link to the web page of the board I'm using
The board comes with sample filles to test the hardware.

Hi Mathy

I'm using the ready for pic board from mikro electronika.
The hardware are working with the hex file from pic basic but not with the hex file from flowcode so this looks like it might be a flowcode error.

Hi medelec Unfortunately I don’t have a scope but I’ve done the one second test again and it seems pretty close to my pc clock with the c block and pll enabled but still no success. I’m running a 8MHz Crystal Almost forgot “I’m also using the second Rx & TX channel of the pic for rs232 to pc and the...

Hi Enamul & Kersing

I'm trying to send data from my pic serial port to pc via usb.
I know the hardware is working, I've tested it with a program written in basic so the problem must be my setup in flowcode or flowcode self.
I've also done the 1 second test and the timing is ok.

Hi There I've connected my serial to usb board to my pc via an FTDI chip, installed the FTDI driver and tested the communication with a test program written in basic so I know the hardware is working. When I use my test program from FC5 the data received by the pc is corrupt. I've tested both with: ...

Hi Guys

Will there be any support or custom code for Gyro devices like the L3GD20 from ST in flowcode V6?

Hi Enamul

Thanks for the reply. This is a great chip with lots of usefull features

Hi Guys

How can I set & clear the RTCC CONFIGURATION bits from within flowcode without using a c block
Is it possible to simulate the Pic18F25J50 internal RTCC in flowcode

Hi Guys

I want to use the rtcc function of a pic18f25j50 with an external 32.768 kHz clock crystal to keep time & date for a project I'm working on but have no idea on how to set the config bits in flowcode, please point me in the right direction on where and how to start

Hi Enamul


Thanks for the demo.
So I guess collecting rs232 data from within a delay should be possible on a software Rx port.

Hi

Will RB0int for rs232 work from within a 5min delay.

Hi Guys

I'm using this switching regulator from RS components; it's a bit expensive but works like a dream 6.5V to 36V input with 5V 9W output. (Search for switching regulator from Traco Power on rs web site)

Is there a better way to copy data from one byte in an array to another in a different array?
I'm currently using "DataIn [5] = BYTE [40]" .

Hi Ben

Thanks for the reply.

4.9152MHz / (9600 / 10) = 20480 instructions between byte receptions.

19660800 /960 = 20480
