Newbie help. PIC18F45k20 pickit debug express
Hi all,
Im a serious newbie at microcontrollers. Trying to get into this as a hobby but I think I am in over my head right now. I need some help.
Im trying to use my PICkit3 programmer with stand along software to program the programs I make in pbp. So far none of my programs work, however if I copy paste a sample program from my pickit3 debug express development kit from microchip. It works fine. The problem is, its in c language and I have no idea what any of it means.
Example: Blink LED

{
TRISD = 0b01111111; // PORTD bit 7 to output (0) ; bits 6:0 are inputs (1)
while (1)
{
LATDbits.LATD7 = ~LATDbits.LATD7; // toggle LATD
Delay1KTCYx(50); // Delay 50 x 1000 = 50,000 cycles; 200ms @ 1MHz
}
}
but if I program a similar blink sample code from pbp, it doesn't work. Why? Im guessing is has something to do with not defining configurations but I don't know.
Example: Blink LED
' PicBasic program to blink an LED connected to PORTD.0 about once a second
Symbol PORTD = 8 ' Set PORTD address
Symbol TRISD = $88 ' Set TRISD address
Poke TRISD, 0 ' Set PORTD to all output
loop: Poke PORTD, 1 ' Turn on LED connected to PORTD.0
Pause 500 ' Delay for .5 seconds
Poke PORTD, 0 ' Turn off LED connected to PORTD.0
Pause 500 ' Delay for .5 seconds
Goto loop ' Go back to loop and blink LED forever
End
I should also note that I am only using the trial version if PBP right now. I would like to purchase it if I could ever get one of my programs to work. Also, I am using the MicroCode Studio IDE. Please Help. Thanks
