can you please send to me the program in C++ please....
please help me can you please send to me the program of 144 LED message scroller please help me for this project we need to study and make this project as soon as possible please help me
thankyou very much and i hope you can help^^
Uh, it was written in PicBasic Pro ..... C is an entirely different language, which would require different software tools, and a complete re-write. Do you expect him to do his project completely over again, but this time using a different language (Even though he already has it working perfectly in PicBasic?) And for free?Quote:

can you please enumerate to me all the use component for this project..that we need to buy...
and i just want to ask some question..for you if there is another alternative IC that can be used what is it?
can you please send to me the program of 144LED message scroller only it is possible to remove the games in prgram and only the message program is thereor can used?Quote:

I have deleted a few of your double postings. Asking the same question multiple times just mucks up the forum.
We have a problem for this kind of IC because it is not available from the market here in the Philippines that's why we need to know what are those IC that can be substitute or other IC that can be used in our project 144 LED message scroller..
i hope you can help me...
THANK YOU^^
If you read the thread, you will see that this IC has been removed in the current design.Quote:

Wow, sorry, haven't checked the thread for a while.
The EEPROM can be ignored.
You can make the circuit as if it is there, and just omit it.
The data for the message scroller is now read from the pics EEPROM,
and is therefore limited to the EEPROM space in the 16F877.
You can make the circuit as it is, and leave out the buttons.Quote:

Then the program will start with the message scroller every time.
If you were asking because you wanted to actually remove game code to free program space
for other stuff, well that should be easy too.
The routines for games are clearly identified in the Picbasic source code provided.
Pls refer to what scalerobotics said ;)Quote:

I was unemployed when I did this project, and now work full time with a lot of travel hours.
Were I still unemployed, I might take this up as a challenge and complete it again in Microchip's C30 compiler.

I'm so glad to find this kind of project were our FINAL project for this semester and after we finish this project i will send to you the FINAL output of our work and SOMEDAY i want to meet you and say THANK YOU VERY MUCH^^
more power to you and i hope many like me(student's) that you can help..^^
Obviously you are the same person as on All About Circuits forum
where the project is also posted.
Short answer is YES.. BC548B is a NPN transistor.
Some substitutes are:
BC109C, BC149C, BC549 & 9014.
Cheers,
Art.
hehehe^^...Quote:

THANK YOU AGAIN..^^ GOD BLESS
i have some problem in program..because...it is not work in PIC C compiler..may be because the program language is different..
i want to ask if you can convert it into c source... please...help me again for this problem because at the end of the month we need to defense our project that's why im so nervous and also pressured,...
but i know you are here..to help us...
THANK YOU...and i hope...so much to you...^^
Sounds like a school project?
Have you ever thought about doing your own work?
What the heck you are asking the thread starter to do everything for your project. :)Quote:

i ask more because i want to make sure...after this work...i can present it very well!!!!!
did you know THAT!!!!!
and i ask if it is possible to convert it to PIC C compiler!!!!...
and beside you are not the right person to say that,..!!!!!!
and for your information i search it all the possible component that can subsitutes if ever it is not available but i want to ask first ofcourse the person to have conformation if it is correct or not DID YOU GET MY POINT...!!!!!
Yes it is possible.Quote:
and i ask if it is possible to convert it to PIC C compiler!!!!...
YOU have to do it. It is your home work. Get the point?
yah... i do it and search it now and i download some software!!!
to test it!!! but i want to make sure because i don't want to waste any little time.....
WALAKANG KWENTANG TAO....
Few of us here use C. Being BASIC code is a "readable" code you should be able to follow it even if you do not use BASIC.
I will assume you know C or are learning C so you should be able to get it going by reading through the BASIC code.
Maybe for help with the C part?
http://www.ccsinfo.com/forum/
If you have specific questions we are glad to help if we can. But when someone ask for the work to be done for them... that does not go over very well.
Good Luck.
I'm sorry if i say something
maybe you miss interpret what i say about pic c compiler to his...
i ask that because if he can convert it,...
not mean to do it because NOT TO DO IT IN MY OWN...your wrong for that...
i ask that to make sure after i search it and convert it into c i want to check of course,..for his work if there's any different..
that what i want to see...
anyway THANK YOU...
My mistake. Sorry. :oQuote:

In any case, the lanquage was inapropriate. I get nervous too many times, but,hey I give ten dollars if anyone find a bad lanquage from any of my posts. Or Daves too. Or any other good member of this forum.
So, I would definetly would give an infraction to lucky-unlucky boy here. But I feeel good today. Let it be...
Ioannis
So I understand you want to go ahead and convert it to C?
(still not quite sure).
If you get the Microchip C30 compiler student demo version, it is free,
and there is not much limitation on it. Only the auto code optimisations are turned off.
Unless you are already using one you are happy with.
I can say though that it would be quite possible to do the same program with it.
Not without your help Art, from what I read.Quote:

Then he asks for the program and it is explained to him that the project is in Picbasic, not C.
Then he says: 'Haha - he didn't see the attached file' etc.
Then he asks for a component list.
Then he aks for a program but without the games - he just wants a message scroller.
He then says he's already started this project - what he means by this is not explained.
He then asks again if it can be converted to C. It is not stated whether he feels that someone else should supply him with the C code, or whether he simply wants an assurance that it can be done.
After a few terse responses, quite justified in my opinion, he resorts to rudeness.
He then says; 'i ask that because if he can convert it,... not mean to do it because NOT TO DO IT IN MY OWN...your wrong for that...'
Which I take to mean can Art do it for him. Or at least he would like Art's help because he cannot do it on his own.
After finding a C compiler he discovers the Picbasic source code will not work in a C compiler and says: 'maybe the language is different.'
What a surprise.
He now resorts to wheedling and says he knows we are here to help him.
No. We are not here to help people program in C. We are here to help people program in PicBasic, hence the title of the forum.
There must be many sine scrollers out there, some programmed in C. Find a C forum, and ask there.
Don't go into a Mosque and ask if they have the Koran in Hebrew. Or a Synagogue and ask for the Torah in Arabic - it's inviting rude comments.

Though I haven't "been on"' this site in months I get these email updates regarding threads. I haven't been on, or contributed, to this site for EXACTLY the reason shown in this thread. I figured it was better to stay away from this site than get into flame wars and what ultimately would have turned into me getting outright banned. So far, "Mackrakit" has been the only one to step up and say it outright (paraphrasing) "do some work".
First, from my own perspective; after Art did what he did, I saw very few (if anyone) say "thank you" (no, I'm not going to comb through the whole thread looking for the exception). I saw lots of "you should have done it this way or that", but no one stepped up and presented what Art did. I volunteered to do the PCB layout, and did. Once posted (on my hosted domain) I saw hundreds of downloads. You would have thought JUST ONE PERSON would have said "thank you", but no one did. I didn't do it (nor did Art I'm guessing) for accolades, but damn, there isn't ONE person that learned something and would offer a simple "thanks". The ONLY TIME you hear from anyone is when they want something from you. So, so as not to have to pay more for the download traffic, I pulled the files. If you think this petty, tough, you post the files and pay for it. And no, I won't send you the files.
Along the way there was the question "do I have to use the "18" instead of the "16"? Well, did you compare TFD sheets? No, you jump on here and ask someone else to do it for you.
And then the transistor questions; for CRYING OUT LOAD, it's a FRAKING TRANSISTOR, being USED AS A SATURATED SWITCH. If you don't know what a SATURATED SWITCH is STOP NOW and GET A BASIC BOOK ON ELECTRONICS. Why are you even LOOKING at microcontroller projects? There are literally THOUSANDS of transistors that could
be used here; but, because you have NEVER CRACKED a BOOK you wouldn't know that. You just find complete projects that "look like what you want" and then needle people to make changes until it does "what you want".
And students, students ARE THE WORST! You are supposed to be learning, not copying. By starting your questions about the type of transistor to use simply proves you have not been paying the slightest bit of attention and most likely have been cheating your way through school. There is no way, no way at all that you could have arrived in a microcontroller class and have to do a project without using transistors first. I don't care where you live, it's not going to happen. I belong to a professional engineering consulting site and I'm sickened by the posts by students looking for pro's to "do their homework"; I've seen incrediably complex tasks posted as final exams and these guys want to pay a pro to do it for $100.00. No wonder so much junk is out there.
And then you follow-up with "convert it to C (or whatever) for me. With the following mods, Change this, change that. AND, do it FAST because we've already commited this for our final project. I can't tell you how many times I've seen this over the years. And when someone calls you on it, you get nasty with them and tell them to mind their own business. Bull. I've seen this on other threads over the years; people asking unreasonable questions (do I HAVE to use a resistor with an LED?) and the incredible amount of replies for not using one. If you don't know what a diode is and how to use one why are you doing this. If you went to machining site and asked if you "had" to use a sharp tool you'd get all kinds of replies I'm sure. Go to a car site and ask if you "have" to use oil in your engine.
And the crap from the "beginners" that ask these questions, and the others that jump to their defense "we're just learning and you're being unhelpful and mean" and follow-up with "you don't know everything". Well, here's the deal; I had to learn and I did it by reading, studying, building and testing. When I didn't understand something, I got a BOOK about whatever it was and learned about it.
Forums started out as a place where if you got truly "stuck" others knowledgable about a subject you could ask others about the subject and get a different perspective. But at that point you didn't have to ask questions like "what is the power supply doing", "did you bypass the supply pins", "is the clock running","is the reset pin tied active". Now you get people that know NOTHING, NOTHING and jump in the middle. And then, if you ask a legitimate question you get every bozo answering ("did you tie the reset pin active, I did this once and it didn't work" - no kidding, huh).
Back to the "students"; there are a TON of references out there about "converting" "BASIC" to "C". I've seen one in particular about converting PICBASIC to C (no, I won't go find the link for you). Frankly, I doubt you could do that anyway; I'm guessing you know as much aout C as you do about transistors.
So flame, kick me off for being "mean" or "unhelpful"; I couldn't care less. I will leave you with this; I'll do your final project, exactly as you want, in any language you want, with PCB layout, production ready (as I REALLY think the whole "student" thing is a ruse) with a B.O.M (that's "Bill of materials", the parts you'll need), with a list of substitute components of 50 different manufacturer part numbers. At my consulting rates the PCB layout alone was worth $1500.00. I figure with code and all, $6000.00 should do it.
Does the $6,000 include a working prototype?
:D
I wish I could charge that amount of money for my consultancy too...
May be I have to change country.
Seriously now. Mtripoli has absolutely right on alsmost all the points. I do not like to the attitude of some members too.
And would never agree on giving the food on the plate. So for these members the direction to find their food is my option.
I know that these kind of posts for "give that", "do this for me", etc will never stop. People are trying to get the best for them with minimal labor. It is in our nature. Others do more work, others not.
Ignore them who are not worth it and spend your time creatively instead of commending it about it. After all your time is precious and they will not read it!

MTripoli is correct.
I recall reading a paper not so long ago written by a UNI professor regarding his concerns with all of this. Copy & paste to do assignments. Where's the world headed?
Anyhow here's a glimpse at some C code:
Not much more involved than BASIC. The help file in MikroC is great, if that fails then go and buy a book. If that fails too, then go and do some formal study.Code:/*
8-LED Knight Rider Scanner
MCU: PIC16f877a
Requirements:
1. Connect 8 leds to portC
2. 1 x push button to RB1 with pull up resistor
3. 4MHz XTAL
Usage:
Pressing the switch causes the leds to chase back & forth
*/
// Global scope variables
char i = 0; // Direction of scan
char j = 1; // Gen working var
char k = 0; // Gen working var
void main()
{
TRISA = 0x00; // PortA as output
TRISB = 0x02; // RB1 to as input rest as out
TRISC = 0x00; // PortC as output
TRISD = 0x00; // PortD as output
TRISE = 0x00; // PortE as output
PORTC = 0x00; // Init port, all pins low
// Infinite loop
while(1)
{
if (PORTB == 0) // Button pressed?
{
PORTC = j; // Write to port
delay_ms(100); // 100mS delay
// Scan dir forward //
if (i == 0)
{
j = (j << 1); // Shift bits left
}
// Scan backward //
else
{
j = (j >> 1); // Shift right
}
// Toggle direction //
k ++; // Inc counter
if (k == 7) // Counter reached n val?
{
k = 0; // Reset
i = ~i; // Toggle dir
}
}
}
}
No "working prototypes"; actual production ready modules.Quote:

Because of the proliferation of the DIY "modules" and DIY PCB etc. there is this idea that designing electronics is cheap. It's not. Slapping together a few parts and calling it done is not a design. I won't go into it because frankly it would be a waste of time. I design products designed for millions of units per run. If I did things the way I see some around here do I wouldn't be a design consultant, I'd ask people every day "you want fries with that".
The REAL problem here is that any human being has this inherent want to help others. I do too. However, when people start a thread with "I know nothing about electronics or this stuff" and then continue on with nonsense it can get under your skin real fast. Or, in this case jump on a Picbasic forum and ask for C code; come on, get real.
I think there is a very simple solution to this kind of problem. I've seen it suggested before in one form or another and the suggestor gets slammed for it. There should be a test to gain entry to the site. If you can't pass a simple test on basic electronics then you should go somewhere else. Immediately "beginners" say "but I came here for help". I'm talking about the truly basic; ohms law, transistor switching, simple logic, an "increment x" program. I in fact happened upon an electronics site that had just this kind of "entrance exam". It was for high-end audio amp design. I took the test and failed. I only failed by a couple of questions, but the fact of the matter is the people that were members of that site could converse with each other on a level that they all knew what the other was talking about. If I wanted to join it was on me to go learn what the things are that I failed. This site is open to anyone with a computer. I stopped coming here because you had to weed through all the nonsense to find the posts from people that had something genuine to offer or the ones that knew what they are doing but need help. Frankly, it's too bad it's called the "PICBASIC" forum. It sheds a bad light on a very good product and the people that are genuinely interested in using it.
"Violence" may not be the correct translation (I see you are from France - God I love the food there; I 've spent some time in Pau at Elf Aquitane many years ago. The Pyrenees mountains are stunningly beautiful). How about "frankness" or "forthrightness" (franchise?).Quote:

I don't get the feeling that is the intention of this site. I am a new member, and a new customer to PBP. First thing is this: I would not have spent the money to buy it had I not been able to gain acces to this forum. I am not saying I couldn't write an inc x program, but maybe I would not have been able to do it in PBP. Sure I can write it in assy, but this isn't an assy forum. So how would you suggest I "pass" the exam?
Also, I think you may be missing the boat here. I bet for each poster who just wants their homework done or whatever, there are prolly 20 more reading the posts. now those 20, myself included, are learning so that we may get to the point of asking questions worthy of your time.
Now I agree you are clearly entitled to your opinion. Thats what makes the world go round. But from what I can see, folks sniff out the school/work projects right quick and deal with them in an approiate manner. Part of what I saw happening in this thread was a language barrier I think. I am still not sure if lucky wanted someone to re-write the code in C or if he was trying to ask if it could be done.
As for you basic electronics requirements? If it is so bad for you to let your eyes fall on questions like "do I need a resistor", you are doing the best thing, stay away. Keep in mind, the datasheets can be a bit misleading here, microchip states their uP's will direct drive a LED. Now I get that just because you can source or sink 25mA means you have to limit it on the output side, how many newbies look at that and say, hey if I use this, all I have to do is hook up a LED?
Start your own "professional" forum, have an entrance exam and enjoy it. Forum software is free, hosting is as low as $4.95/month.
Sorry for continuing to hi-jack this thread. I will post no more on this topic. Lets get back to the scroller.:rolleyes:
