Sorry to ask again but i seem to be having an issue with the "ISRTimer.bas" module this is clearly my lack of understanding but i hardly ever use timers. Event OnTimer() TP1 = 1 If Mscounter >= 1000 Then Mscounter=0 TimePassedInMS=TimePassedInMS+1 flowcounts = counter counter=0 Else Mscounter=Mscoun...

Ok so an update. After putting my debug kit back on the microcontroller i was getting a warning about buffer overrun when the problem was occuring. Sub CheckForNewData() Dim inbyte As Byte If ISRRX.BufferOverrun Or ISRRX.Overrun Then MyDebug("{OverRun}"+CrLf) ISRRX.Reset EndIf While ISRRX.DataAvaila...

I was hoping I'd overlooked something, I'll try checking the registers you suggested. I'm used to noise, I make Pulsed laser power supplies, the problem is that i have made a new PCB and one of the changes was using the intosc on this chip as i was low on pins and I haven't used it much before. So I...

Hi on a similar theme to the device config issue. I have been having an issue with noise on a board that has a a pic18f47q43 in a socket its running with internal oscilator at 64MHz, i originally had the config as below. Config FEXTOSC = OFF, // Oscillator not enabled RSTOSC = HFINTOSC_64MHZ,// HFIN...

Thanks Jerry, I am trying to decode this in the windows application as this is for diagnostics/debug so I wanted to minimize the amount of time the pic spends sending data. I have now found an application note from microchip but I am getting incorrect values in windows so I must have messed up my bi...

hi, I'm trying to send a float to a pc using the following Public Sub WriteFloat(pValue As Float) WriteByte(pValue.Bytes(0)) WriteByte(pValue.Bytes(1)) WriteByte(pValue.Bytes(2)) WriteByte(pValue.Bytes(3)) End Sub End Sub the data i get back on the pc doesn't seem in a standard Microsoft format but ...

Sorry for the slow reply, Ok, this is a bit embarrassing. In my defence this was an old board design where I have just changed to a new processor, and a new fault had been introduced. I had 1k series resistors inline with the fpga as level shifters as the fpga has clamp diodes. but this value is rea...

I'm using an18f47q43 for some software spi comms and the slew rate looks a bit slow compared to other pics at approx. 200ns, I noticed the datasheet has mention of slew rate control so I tried adding the following after setalldigital SLRCONA = 0 SLRCONB = 0 SLRCONC = 0 SLRCOND = 0 SLRCONE = 0 and al...

odd, sorry for the delay i thpought i had replied,

i get this, from work and my mobile.

I'll try again from home.

anyone know what's happened to the firewing website?,

anything we can help with?

I have a work around now but I don't like it. I have 2 pcb's connected via rs485 if I check ISRRX.DataAvailable too often (1ms) i seem to get modifications to my input string where I collate and check the incoming packet. even though if i send the input byte to a debug output the bytes coming in are...

I'm having some really odd problems with receiving data over usart using the isrrx2 routine using a 47q43 part. I had a look in the library folder for interrupts and noticed there is a xvISRRX2.bas file should i be using this for the q43 series?. PS is there a prefered method of checking how much da...

Thanks Gerry that works really well, although..... I spent much too long trying to diagnose a problem that didn't exist because I didn't realise i had to select the umc button on the mcloader and i doesnt really show that its selected. thanks again for your help on this i really appreciate it. Richard

Thanks Gerry I'll have a look at this tomorrow

Thanks Gerry,

I was expecting the pins to use portc.6-7 but the datasheet was unclear on the tx1 pin it just said it was remappable.

anyway portc.6-7 are fine for me.


Thanks
