Re: "usb_serial_config.h": No such file or directory
Thank you Ben - Very much appreciated.

"usb_serial_config.h": No such file or directory
Hi Guys. I had occasion to reinstall Flowcode 8 on a new work machine (Windows 10). All went well and everything appeared to work, until I tried to use the USB Serial component when programming ECIO40P16. In short, build termination due to the following error report: Device: PIC16.33E.ECIO40P16 Gene...

Re: PIC32MZ UART Baud Rate
That's fantastic - Thanks Ben
I'm currently between working from home and supporting contractors identifying/fixing an underground water leak, so may take a while but will certainly post back with results from boards fitted with PICs exibiting this issue.
Best regards,
Brendan

PIC32MZ UART Baud Rate
I'm coding embedded test code for a PIC32MZ2048EFG144 and have discovered that the Baud setting in the UART component must be set to precisely double the required Baud rate for comms to work, otherwise the usual garbled chars. In a C block I've attempted to force changes to PBCLK2 prescaler ( PB2DIV...

As I use CRCs with Flowcode a lot (particularly Maxim 1-wire, etc), and assuming you've got 256 Bytes of program memory to spare for an 8-bit CRC, I'd like to chip in with a popular alternative of pasting a 256-byte table (relevant to your CRC polynomial) to the Flowcode LUT component. Such CRC tabl...

PIC32MZ UART Troubles - Pulling my hair out...
Hello All. I'm wondering if seasoned experts amongst us could shed any light... I've been pulling my hair out trying to get a single basic UART channel working on the PIC32MZ2048EFG144. 100MHz system clock settings suitably confirmed as UART Tx/Rx works perfectly fine in software mode at 115.2kbps, ...

Re: Custom Macro Colours in the Project Explorer
Thanks Ben - Much appreciated
I'm presently doing something similar, with untested and problem macros preceded by underscore, so it shoves them to the bottom and avoids visual clutter.
Still loving FC8 by-the-way

Custom Macro Colours in the Project Explorer
I'm presently working on a project that has over 60 custom macros for a multi-function test platform - and growing. A huge part of this exercise in the development phase is to test and debug the various macros, and would therefore be great to be able to custom-colour the individual macro icons in th...

Commercial or Industrial Temperature?
Hi team. I often use the great convenience of eBlocks in professional projects, though on this occasion I'm looking for a board with a good/fast 16-bit or 32-bit PIC with as much I/O on offer, that offers industrial temperature tolerance and on-board 3V3 regulation. I suspect that the majority (if n...

Re: Software I2C for 36 channels - Will it work?
UPDATE:
I've since managed to find and switch to suitable SPI devices, so much easier to control logical CSBs and not have to deal with potential I2C bus hangs and power-cycling.
An interesting question though, for possible future reference.
Many thanks,
Brendan

ERRATA - dsPIC33EP512MU814 (solved)
We're attempting to code a test fixture around dsPIC33EP512MU814, but device definitions is clearly incorrect. For example, Flowcode7 affords selection of Port 'I' but no such port exists on the chip, and port K doesn't show up but does exist. Recalling that we had similar previous issues with a 32-...
