FlowCode V5 for PIC - internal oscillator issue

[iamwhoiam]

Hi all. I am trying to find the correct option in FlowCode 5 for PIC, to set the INTERNAL oscillator for my PIC 16F628A, and it is SO confusing!

Here is where I go, in FlowCode: "Build >> Project options >> General (tab) >> Configure chip"

The options I see for the oscillator are pretty confusing, considering I am used to "INTRC NOCLKOUT" or similair. Would someone be kind enough to show me which option means "internal oscillator, NO clock output", please, as this is bemusing at the very least.

Thank you, God bless

Hi iamwhoiam,
You need to select

Code: Select all

INTOSC I/O

(INTernal OSCillator with RA6 as Input/Output)

Don't forget to disable

Code: Select all

Watchdog Timer

and

Code: Select all

Low Voltage Programming

Thanks!

Talk about ambiguous design - they NEED to fix that, and make it abundantly clear what it means. It's all very well THEM knowing (the designers of flowcode) but why not just stick to industry standard descriptions and designations, instead of thinking up and implementing some obscure acronym :-S LOL

Hello use Flowcode 5'm wanting to use the internal oscillator used an icon in c OSCCON = 0x60 and when I compile with the error?

Teste.c (148: 2): error: identifier unknown 'OSCCON'
Teste.c (148: 2): error: invalid operand 'OSCCON'
Teste.c (148: : error: failed to generate expression

This is the program I want to use the internal oscillator 4mhz.Podem help me?

[STibor]

Hi,
Not include the controller "osccon" register.
Internal 4MHz clock by default.
PCON register sets the bit OSCF (1bit) or 4MHz (0bit) from 48kHz.

Hello sorry so many perguntas.Para use the internal oscillator I no longer use the ICON C "OSCCON = 0 x 60"?

Hello,
Not be used to delete the C code macro or write c code before // characters.
// Post code is not interpreted by the compiler.

Hello,

Instead of this.

Code: Select all

OSCCON = 0X60 ;

Try this.

Code: Select all

osccon = 0x60;

Note that the register name and the x in 0x is now lowercase and should now be recognised by the compiler.

Hello moderators and colleagues tested the internal oscillator configured pic 16F628A and INTOSC and put a ICON in C lowercase letter OSCCON = 0x60; .Testei error when compiling the program with the same pic 16F88 and is compiled normalmente.Isso bug Flowcode? Someone can help me?

[Genilsonsa]

Every time I compile the error !!!!!!!!!!!!!! If I compile with PIC 16F88 always compile successfully

Hi Genilsonsa,
No it's not a bug.

Not include the controller "osccon" register.
Internal 4MHz clock by default.
PCON register sets the bit OSCF (1bit) or 4MHz (0bit) from 48kHz.

Hello,
Not be used to delete the C code macro or write c code before // characters.
// Post code is not interpreted by the compiler.

Both statements are absolutely correct!

16F628A only have an internal dual speed oscillator and the default is 4MHz ( 16F828A uses PCON register which by default set at 8 = 4MHz)
This means there is no osccon register that is used like there are in other devices to select desired internal osc speed.

to work at 4MHz.

For your flowchart to compile you must remove osccon C code block as it's not required.
With no osccon register within your target device, you will get an error if left in.

If your hardware is not working then you have some other issue.

Medelec35 Hello thanks for replying and I'm looking on the forums for days trying to understand how to use the internal oscillator and had not gotten a clear explanation so that you deu.Vou test the program in practice to see if it falls to certo.Muito Thanks

[Genilsonsa]

I auditioned with internal oscillator with pic 16F628A and worked here redondinho.Agradeço everyone who helped .Very Thanks
