Compiler/Programmer Options

[Steff]

I have finally taken the step to FCV6.
From v3 to v4 to v5 I had no problems. Now I have a problem with the compiler or programmer options. How the hell can they save they remain as I adjusting !!!!!! Every time I look, the Programmer options that I have written are empty again! What am I doing wrong ?
The problem is not the ICD3 programmer does not work, as far as I could not test that, the problem is that I can not save my settings.

Thanks for Your Help

With detours with the MPELAB IPE I can now program the chip.
The goal would be however already that I can program directly from FCV6 and the ICD3.

But unfortunately I have the next problem.
I think the 16F1827 can output PWM signals at the pins RA3, RA4, RB3 and RB6. Unfortunately, I can do that only on pins RA3 and RA4. The Simulaion in FCV6 is OK, on the hardware not.

Am I making a mistake ?
In the appendix, a small test program (fcv6).

Thanks for your help.

I have made the same small program with FCV5, and lo and behold ..... with FCV5 function all 4 PWM outputs

Hello Steff,

Please can you try this latest v6 CAL file and see if it solves your problem.

PIC_CAL_PWM.c

The file needs to be placed into the "C:\Program Files (x86)\Flowcode 6\CAL\PIC" directory.

Hi Benj
Unfortunately it has not effected except that the compiler / linker print this error messages, which has not been shown befor !

Sorry Looks like I uploaded the v7 CAL file by mistake.

Here is the v6 CAL file.

Thanks a lot Benj...now it runs.

I had exactly the same problem and tried several things.
In V5 it worked fine on all PWM outputs... In V6 only on RA3 and 4.
Thanks to you all. Such a forum is a great thing!
Best Regards

Hello !!
It's been a long time !!
And another problem ... Sorry!

We have to correct an old FCV5 program a little bit. I thought the simplest and fastest way would be the version it was written in, FCV5, but ...! I can simulate it in FCV5 but when creating the HEx file there is the following error message. What's wrong?

C:\Program Files (x86)\Flowcode\v5\FCD\..\CAL\PIC\PIC_CAL_ICD.c(48): Illegal redefinition of symbol: ICD_CLK_PIN_PORT

Thanks for your Help.
