Sorry for the inconvenience.
I had an IO error on my side “Idiot Operator", I've loaded the wrong software version.
Hi Desdewit,
No problem bud, I would be lying if I said I’ve never done that before.
Thank you for the update.

Flowcode 5 is a Fantastic product and well worth getting. Once you start using it you won’t look back.

Hi Martin
I'm storing the calibration values to eeprom so I don't have to re-calibrate the scale every time I switch it on.
Can you please tell me where the zero value are stored so I can save it to eeprom like the span?

All I did was to subtract the zero from the span:
If you want to see there all variable are stored/calculated then best to un-tick Hide annotations (view, Project options).
Press F8 key, then make sure all variables are added to variable window.
I have mapped the keys in flowchart I have posted.
so:
Zero = 0
Span = 1
Calibrate = 2
So if you press key 1 on keyboard you will see the Span switch activate.
You can hold the key down and single step at the same time.

Hi Martin
At last I completed my project but not without one last problem.
I've tested the software with a pic16f877& 876 and it worked without a problem, BUT when I loaded it on the "compatable"16f887
" the software only works up to where the A to D should start reading then the pic stops responding.
The code works fine with the simulator and 16f877&76
Is there a different way to setup the AtoD on a pic16f887 in flowcode?
