Human Interface not working for me

[Lawrence_Miranda]

Bought V9 late last night and cannot find a way to input string into the UART. Here is a test program I used that worked great on V8 but not on V9.

Data is pasted into the console Rx queue but is not taken when presented to the UART.

Hello,

Many thanks for letting us know. I beleive I have now found and fixed the problem for you and the fix is now available via the library updates window.

Let us know how you get on.

Thank you Ben

Hi Ben,

Sorry to highjack this thread but I was facing the same issue with the PIC16LF1947 but is resolved with the updated libraries.

But now I have this compile error which I troubleshoot is due to the 2nd UART by modifying Lawrence_Miranda's attachment (changing MCU and adding a 2nd UART to the 2D Dashboard).

I have attached it here.

Error returned from [xc8.exe]

C:\ProgramData\MatrixTSL\FlowcodeV9\FCD\PIC\batch\pic_xc8_comp.bat reported error code 0x1

Previously I was able to compile without errors using both UART on the chip before this library update.

Thanks for letting us know, I've replicated the problem here and solved it for you now via the update system.

Let us know how you get on.

Thanks, Ben.

Working fine with the updates.
