Pic12f629 pic12f675 Flowvcode5 expire?

[jgu1]

Hi!

When I use the tiny devices Pic12f629 and Pic12F675 the programmer program the devices, but they doesn´t work in real world?

If I use a 12F683, it work perfect, am I doing something wrong in config, trying almost all kind of setting in config?

Then I would perform a test whith these devices in the FC5 to see if this would work, but suddently when I try to open FC5, I get the meaasage " my licence has expired?

It is not possible renew, also here no matter what I do. Can this be fixed, I have many project made in Fc5 Do I have to pay for FC5 again????
Please help and advice.....

Hello jorgen.
No, the licence does not expire as my v5 is still working OK.
Have you tried entering your licence details?
Select Help, Activate.
Select the padlock for CD code.
You will need to enter the CD code first in the formant of
xxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxx

Then the Activation Code padlock and enter in the format of:
Your Name
xxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxx

If you don't have your licence details then what you can try:
go to https://www.matrixtsl.com/ and log in.
Scroll down to Legacy Products, then select View old licences.
If your licence has not been added, I can ask for you to be sent again, but please remember that v5 is no longer supported, so I can't make any promises.

As for your 12F629 & 12F675, I remember that they have an internal calibrated oscillator that s gests erased and restored by the programmer.
Perhaps that has not happened in your case?
What about setting the oscillator within the configuration settings to INTOSC: oscillator CLKOUT function on GP4 and measure the clock out frequency?

If there is nothing there, have you checked the programmer has the correct configuration settings showing?

Hi MArtin!

Thank´s for fast reply!

Concerning activating I actually have two Key´s. My private and one for my job.

When I try to activate for my private, Wrong username or key. And when I try to look in "Legacy Products, then select View old licences" Nothing is there, so if you can I will be glad if you are able to add it there

If I use the license for my job, FC5 accept it, but after restart it is not activating?

I test your suggest in the 12F629 + 12F675 device and I see the osc. signal comming out on GP4, but the simple program is not running?
Same in FC8

If I use 12F683 it work.

***EDIT*** Went to my friend who also have FC5. We perform a test with the 2 device in FC5 and they working. *************** Maybe bug in FC8 and FC9

Thank´s in advance

Hi Jorgen.
It looks like the correct CD code is being used.
The Activation Code is wrong as it looks like you are using the same code as you did for CD.
For the activation code:

enter in the format of:
Your Name
xxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxx

The requirement is seven sets of six characters separated by hyphens.
Do you still have that code?

Hej Martin!

Yes Yes, now it is ok and I get my good old FC5 back. Finally I found the key with 6 X 7 (as you said) numbers and it work. I have to hide it a safer place.

Thank you many many times Martin.

I will now test the 12F629 + 12F675 here in my FC5. It work by my friend in FC5 but not in FC8 and 9?

Thank you.

Hi Jorgen
That's great!
I'm glad you have it sorted out now. and my PM helped.

I have to hide it a safer place.

Go to https://www.matrixtsl.com/ and log in.
Scroll down to Legacy Products, then select Attach old licences
I have done that with all my legacy products as they are not added by default
