    Default 8x8 keypad matrix...

    Hi, I got my 4x4 keypad working using keypad.bas file from Setve. Now I'm trying to modify it to create 8x8 PortB for rows and PortD for Columns. Kindly check my codes and schematic, I use 1k for the resistors.
    Code:
    TRISB = %00000000 	
    PortB = 0 
    TRISD = %11111111 	
    PortD = 1  		
    ADCON1 = 7 		;Make PORTA and PORTE digital 				
    OPTION_REG.7 = 0 	
    			
    	
    INCLUDE "KeyPad.bas" 
       '                      
        '    Hardware connection
        '    ===================
        DEFINE KEYPAD_ROW        8       ' 8 row 
        define KEYPAD_ROW_PORT   PORTB   '   on PORTB
        DEFINE KEYPAD_ROW_BIT    0       '      
        DEFINE KEYPAD_COL        8       ' 8 col 
        DEFINE KEYPAD_COL_PORT   PORTD   '   on PORTD
        DEFINE KEYPAD_COL_BIT    0       '      
       
      
        '
        '    Serial Communication definition
        '    ===============================
        DEFINE HSER_TXSTA 24h            ' enable transmit, BRGH=1
        DEFINE HSER_SPBRG 129            ' 9600 Bauds
    
        '   
        '    Variables definition 
        '    ===================
        myvar                    var byte
    
        '    ---------------------------------[Program Start]----------------------------------------------
    start:
        @ READKEYPAD _myvar
        hserout ["Key=",dec myvar,13,10]
        goto start
    thanks in advance,

    Hi mbox,
    Please, always, always post the PIC part number as some really are very different. I have gotten to the point of making a comment in all my code with that information.
    Did this work for you with the serial output on the "other" chip you were using?
    What chip "was" that?

    Did you edit keypad.bas to alert it as to the changes? (Best I remember it defines everything on PortB . .) .
    I have had no success porting the program Steve wrote for LLoyd Edwards to use serial LCDs, (did I remember to say thank you LLoyd?), Thank You LLoyd. I will have to revisit it as i probably did something bone headad like try to use Tx pin as output . . .

    here is some code I use for a 8X10 switch matrix I think you will get the idea how to modify it for a 8X8 matrix. I do not remember where I got the matrix part of this code so I can not give credit to the author. By the way I do not use any resistors. Works fine for me without.
    Code:
    
    
    DEFINE OSC 48   
    ADCON1 = $F       'port A digital
    CMCON = 7         'PortA Digital
    PortE.7 = 1              'set weak pullups port D
    USBBufferSizeMax   con 8  ' maximum buffer size
    USBBufferSizeTX    con 8  ' input 
    USBBufferSizeRX    con 8  ' output
    
    ' the USB buffer...
    USBBuffer        Var Byte[USBBufferSizeMax] 
    USBBufferCount   Var Byte 
    TrisB = %00000000
    TrisD = %11111111
    TrisE.0 = 1
    TrisE.1 = 1
    
    shift  var byte
    keyout var byte
    keyold var byte
    K_Flag Var Bit
    Key	   Var Byte
    Debounce 	Var 	Bit 	  	' Flag to indicate a keypress.
    D_Flag 		Var 	Bit 	  	' Debounce flag used by Inkeys.

    Thanks for the quick responce, I'm using pic16f877, the same PIC I use for my 4x4 keypad. If possible I want to make use the keypad.bas include file work for the 8x8. I did not make any changes to the keypad.bas but instead I include this in my code...
    Code:
    DEFINE KEYPAD_ROW        8       ' 8 row 
        define KEYPAD_ROW_PORT   PORTB   '   on PORTB
        DEFINE KEYPAD_ROW_BIT    0       '      
        DEFINE KEYPAD_COL        8       ' 8 col 
        DEFINE KEYPAD_COL_PORT   PORTD   '   on PORTD
        DEFINE KEYPAD_COL_BIT    0
    I also want to make clear, is the DEFINE KEYPAD_ROW_BIT and DEFINE KEYPAD_COL_BIT is where you suppose to connect your first row and column?

    regards,

    Hi,
    I see mister_e has commented the DEFINES in keypad.bas you should scroll down and see this in amongst the assembly code:
    Code:
    <font color=green>
      ;
        ;    Default settings
        ;    ================
        KB_ROW        = 4                                      ; 4 ROW keypad
        KB_ROW_PORT   = PORTB                                  ; Keypad ROW on PORTB
        KB_ROW_BIT    = 0                                      ; ROW0 = PORTB.0
        KB_COL        = 4                                      ; 4 COL keypad
        KB_COL_PORT   = PORTB                                  ; Keypad Col on PORTB
        KB_COL_BIT    = 4                                      ; COL0 = PORTB.4
        DebounceDelay = d'200'                                 ; debounce delay 200mSec
    </font color>
    I do not know if the defines will override this or not, somehow I doubt it, but it very well may.
    Also here are some threads on this subject:

    Default Re: 8x8 keypad matrix...

    Hello In your code you have enabled pullups resistor to vcc in portb so please change your ports
    because "Column bits must have Pull-up resistor attach to VCC"
    Ex:
    DEFINE KEYPAD_ROW 6 ' 6 row
    define KEYPAD_ROW_PORT PORTC '
    DEFINE KEYPAD_ROW_BIT 0 '
    DEFINE KEYPAD_COL 4 ' 4 col
    DEFINE KEYPAD_COL_PORT PORTB '
    DEFINE KEYPAD_COL_BIT 0 '
