I have made and finished a simple PWM input example for use with RC servo outputs, I made this trying to build a "RC switch" to control nav/landing lights and/or camera on my RC helicopter. Two ~ Three weeks ago I knew little to nothing about PICmicros and programing and completed my first...

Just trying to refine it a bit I want to test it some more I think I can make better! But yes I'm willing to share it to show hobbyists how powerful and useful Flowcode can be!

Thank you!!!! It works now, it was the the low voltage programing config, disabled and now works perfectly , just had to double check my programmer that it does high voltage programming so I can rewrite the chip and all is fine!

Tried to search the forums but didn't seem to want to let me to , I'm trying connect a LCD to my 16F627 and have set to 4Mhz with an external Xtal and I know my LCD works I tested in 8bit mode connected to my computer LPT port and the screen dose not want to work with the PIC just black blocks on to...

Nope, wait I just looked more into the interrupt and saw transition low to high on T0CKI and found out T0CKI is a pin so this pin is my input and in the sub routine for TMR0 I just do a calculation of count = count + 1 and I can set up a LCD in the main program to out put the results correct??

Thank you Ben , Thank you Chevy ! I looked at the interrupt and saw TMR0 overflow and it gave me some settings clock source = internal clock , source edge select = low to high transition T0CKI , and prescale = 1:4 , with the interrupt it gave me a window for a sub routine I'm guessing this is where ...

After doing some hard reading and looking I think I know now what I want to do, so to read a PWM since its a square wave pulsing on/off ( 1 / 0 ) I just want to read the length of 1 , so when the input goes high 1 a timer should start and count how long the input is high till it goes low , since the...

Thanks for the reply, I was looking over your posts and some other servo based posts and have some what of an idea. I know a little C code have read up on it so I know the basic syntax of it but never really did any programming. A friend of my'n gave me a JDM programmer and a few different PICs from...

Hey chevy6600, excellent another RC guy. I played around with PWM output and found that I can dim and pulse a LED light for effects witch is really neat but the PWM on the PIC chips seems to be output only I'm not looking to drive a servo but read the signal that normally would go to one, I connecte...

Hello, I am a RC hobbyist and been looking to control LEDs and such off a spare servo channel, been reading and learning about PIC micros and when I found out about flowcode it looked like something that I could use, right now I downloaded the demo and trying to figure out how to read PWM as a input...
