The problem i have also with these chip 30F3012 .
To day i now , code stops after rf-init_macro in my real hardware.
after i delete the init-macro , led is blinking on hardware.

In simulation , inside flowcode , led is blinking with the RF-init_macro.

Please help.

Regards wolfgang

addition :
There are direct connect over jumper B to Max 3002.
I control these by a Ohm-meter.

Hi Wolfgang,

That's an odd one. I have been through the code and there are no blocking calls that could cause the device to lock up as part of the init routine. I will look into this for you and see if I can work out what is going wrong. Please could you describe which port you have the EB063 connected to and what jumper settings you are using.

Hello Benj

I do not work with the EB-006.

Orginal i take a 30F6012A connect to port B_H_o to B_H_4.

For test with the same chip i use in the moment the 30F3012 because
sean say's you can test also with these.( that we have access to are the dsPIC 30F5013, 30F4013, 30F3012)

The LED is connect to D_L_0
The EB-063-00-1 is connect B_L_0 to B_L_4 show pin.gif.
On the back-side i show EB_063-20-1?

Hello Benj

to day i put in : connected lines.jpg
so i hope,you have enough information to
help me.I am under time-pressure with the project .

Hi Wolfgang,

Right I have replicated your setup using a EB063 on PortBL and using a 30F2011 device which is essentially the same as the 30F3012 but with less memory.

The LED is always flashing for me so there must be something wrong.

Here is my version of the component C code just in case you are using an out of date version. Simply copy the file into your "Flowcode PIC24&dsPIC V4\Components" directory and then restart Flowcode.

Let me know how you get on, if your still having problems then please could you send us your flowcode file and the generated C file.

Hello Benj

I have also a 30F2011.......
after change the .c file the led is blinking
I test to morrow complete projekt.

Hello Benj

Unfortunately , if i switch of the powerline and connect again,
the pic do not start .
I want finish the projekt with a ds-pick and the eb-063 !!!!!

I cannot do these without a supportive help for the RF-macro....

Hello

Can nobody help me?

Hello Wolfgang,

I have tested your program, but have not been able to recreate the condition that prevents the LED from flashing (using the EB064 multiprogrammer and a dsPIC30F2011).

Looking through the initialization macro code, with the software SPI option selected, there are no commands that cause the program to wait for any specific conditions (only a few short delays and a predictable FOR loop).

We are now looking into some issues with the code for the R.F. component, particuarly with the FSEL option selected. An update will be posted as soon as it is available.

Hello Sean

Do you have any news?
I think if you no have a little answer for the problem after one week,it is a bigger one;
to fix the rf-macro for a correct work.
I am a little bit more in a state of confusion to my telf. projekt .............

Hello Wolfgang,

We think we have found the source of the problems. Rebuild and test are planned for this weekend

[saschech@gmx.de]

Hello Sean

What is the result of the weekend
with look of the RF-macro?

Regards Wolfgang

[Sean]

The code is working again.

It will take a couple of days to get it into a releasable state.

Hello Sean

Any news?
Please you can tell me the definition "couple of days "...

Hello Wolfgang,

I believe Sean has been in contact via PM and sent an updated C-code file. I have also sent another updated file. Hopefully one of these files will correct your problem. Please let us know how you get on.
