Previous Version of FC6

[keejay]

Hi,

Is it possible to go back to the previous version of FC6?

Thanks

Hi keejay,
I have just added V1.65 DS1307 component to Flwocode version 6.1.3.2.
I assume with this postyou are referring to compiling to hex, and that why you want to go back to previous version?
After compiling Flwochart posted here.
I got the following results:

Perhaps you could close Flowchart, re-add DS1307 component and try compiling again.
Can you post compiler messages so we can see what error message you're getting after compiling.

Hello,

Yes this should be possible. I'll dig out the URL for the older installation for you.

Any reason why your going back? If you're having an issue with 6.1.3 then let us know and we may have already fixed it.

[keejay]

Hi Benj,

I am having an issue with 6.1.3, but the issue is with the DS1307 component that Jordy posted some time back. It works geat with 6.1.2. It compiles with "success" in 6.1.3 but when I try and run it on my PIC, then the PIC hangs. Exact same software and hardware, only difference is 6.1.2 and 6.1.3 and I urgently need to get this project out.

With more time I'm sure we can come up with a solution for 6.1.3, but I'm running against the clock unfortunately.

Thanks

Hi keejay,
When you say hangs, do you mean you just get constants dots.....................................................................................................................................................................................................................?
If so something is interfering with Flowcode.
Perhaps you have allowed or set up and exclusion with antivirus or firewall for V6.1.2, but not yet set it for for 6.1.3?

[keejay]

Hi medlec,

The compliler compiles the flow code successfully and I program the PIC with the generated .hex file successfully. Tye PIC hangs at the point that it uses the DS1307 component in the software. The software before the 1307 component runs fine (LCD, LED's etc all work as advertised up until the DS1307 component is used). Ive isolated the component with switching LED's at various stateges of the program. The exact same program runs 100% with 6.1.2 but when compiled with 6.1.3 the PIC hangs (not the compiler)

[keejay]

Version 6.1.2 re-installed and all is working 100% again.

[Benj]

In 6.1.3 the 18FxxK22 devices had an issue with PWM which has now been resolved. Are you using PWM in your program at all?

http://www.matrixtsl.com/mmforums/viewt ... 418#p73288

[Benj]

Also are you using hardware or software I2C in the program?

Best to fix the problem now if we can or it will likely end up in future versions too.

[keejay]

Hi Benj,

I am using the PIC18F46K22 and all seems to work well. The problem comes in when I try and use the DS1307 component that Jordy posted a while back. It communicates via I2C so maybe that is where the issue is? My program doesn't use PWM so I can't confirm whether that's a problem at this stage.
