Writing first program for dspic33FJ32MC202 and can't get it to compile. SSDT_001.fcf_pic16 did some research on this fgs.SEC but still don't know what to do, it is mentioned in header file but don't have a clue. c:\program files (x86)\flowcode(dspic)\v5\tools\c_tools\bin\bin\..\bin/pic30-coff-ld.exe...

I have tried
"First Last
xxxxxx-xxxxxxx-xxxxxxx-xxxxxxx-xxxxxx"
with and without dashes or even spaces
just the code
tried under CD code and the other padlock
what is the secret?

Ok now I got it to work with VNET and it simulates! :) :) but doesn't work in hardware! I had to put macro call in main loop instead of interrupt driven (takes forever to simulate with TMR0 divider set to 256) But even when compiled same as simulation still no response from serial data.(From Hardware)

not working yet
also changed interrupt to be slower but still no RS232 data being received into variables

The macro which reads rs-232 is set to interrupt 244 times a second to read 1 byte each pass I put bytes 170,12,125,either in same file or using Vnet to send data and it never gets read in from rs232. Can't figure out how to get reliable data at 9600 baud I assume flowcode is storing more than the 2...

I was not able to open file 18F25k22 File extension FCD?
Is FCD a valid file type?
MY pic version 5.5 only has .FCF

When I try to simulate with debugger enabled I get message "Could not communicate with ICD" J2 on ICD is labeled the same as the connections for the PICKIT2 Is this correct? So i plugged the pickit2 into the USB out jack just need to move cable from pickit2 to ICD and change switch positio...

I have been trying to prevent stack corruption and wonder if I need to disable interrupt for ( RB0 interrupt on change ) and if so how do I clear bit 1 in intcon register (10Bh) GIE

Recently wrote need program to control reel using 16f887 (upgrade path from 16f877a) but though Ithought I had it perfected, sometimes on start up it runs motor without being able to control it from knobs and switches. wanted to see if someone would look at my code and see if I am doing any fundamen...

I need to add ( RB0 (1) + RB1 (2) +RB2 (4) + RD7 (8) ) to come up the binary weighted value like is it possible to use pin names in a C# statement like: (RB0 + (2*RB1)+(4*RB2) + (8*RD7) ) I'm trying to change some programs from Basic to C# But I can't find any where on forum where people are referri...

This one is even better.

Still don't get it.
Please look at what I have.
it still doesn't seem to see sum of b.0 b.1 b.2 d.7

I am using tone decoder chip and need sum of D1-D4
I know it should be something like D1+(D2*2)+(D3*4)+(D4*8)
I need to store this to variable to see 1 of 16 decoded outputs
I am new to C programming and don't know sytax

Just discovered that there is another error listed :

I believe I registered my license with the forum, but not sure how or where

So it looks like it must be added to the panel to define the connections. Is that correct I haven't seen connections anywhere else.
I added another ANALOG to panel then it appeared in list

When adding component macro, I don't see how to use 3 analog channels, There are only ADC(0) and ADC(1) to choose from?

I am using a ADM232LJN (max232 also makes similar chip)16 Pin dip chip to convert levels for pin 25 and 26 for either pic16f877 or pic16f887 and it seems to receive data good with 1 stop bit even seems to work with 2 stop bits but maybe some data is being tossed. Another note my programming partner ...

it's automatically done by pic usart. What do you mean by real term? did you mean real time?

even if you use 2 stop bits?

Question 1 Let's say I want to send 5 bytes of data to control my cable reel. How do i ensure that i put correct byte into each variable? Maybe first byte is always value 120? Question 2 Also want to use a bit to tell on or off,and a bit to tell direction,and a bit to tell high gear,and a bit to tel...

Do you Have a schematic of car are building? Are there sensors to detect walls, barriers?
what kind of motors are you using?

Hi, Have you tried the hex I have posted last time..it doesn't have adc...there might be an issue in adc..as I have swapped those in my program. I have removed the adc in last one..now I have added it in right station..so it should work..Can you please let me know is that works or not? Thanks, Enam...
