Hi,
I write this following program but the C Code doesn't work
LCD display always "48' why ??

Thank

I can think of 2 possibilities:

1) The watchdog timer config bit is enabled, meaning your program restarts before OUT increments

2) The clock sped is set wrong and the delay of 1s is actually much larger.

The Flowcode simulation will not work as you are using C code to increment the OUT variable. It should work fine on hardware.

Yes Benj,

Thank a lot,It's better using hardware.......

I have a other question :

Is it possible to have the function pow(x,y) in flowcode ??
If i use it I have a message error ?
How can i use X^Y ??

Thank for you replay........

Hello Mike

You can do power calculations as follows.

Create your two variables eg A and B.

Variable A may need to be an Int 16 bit variable to hold the result.

Then assign values to A and B with a calculation icon.

Then create a while loop with "B" in the loop while text box (do not include the brackets). This means that the loop will run while B is greater then 0.

Inside the loop create the following calculation "A = A * A"

Then create another calculation to decrment variable B "B = B - 1"

Hope that this helps.
