Need help getting started.

[TheOldFart]

Please help an Old Fart Out here.

I have programmed some sofisticated programs using picaxe chips.

I'm now trying to program pic16F690 chips, to start with.

I have a PICkit2, which I can program HEX files to, so I know that works.

also have the LPC Demo Board.

MPLAB IDE v8.92
PBP 3.0 Student Edition, activated.
PiCKIT 2 programmer
LPC demo board
Windows 7 64bit.


I've read [Beginner Tutorial] How to get started with PICBASIC PRO

Demo, MPLAB & PICKIT 2

and

Presetting Configuration Fuses (PIC Defines) into your Program

and

Now My Brain Hurts.........


I'm trying to assemble the demo programs, Led Blinky etc.

I keep getting the dreaded 'Overwriting previous address contents

(2007)' message.


If I can get the program to assemble, with internal oscillator running I'll be

able to proceed, and be a happy chappie..

Doesn't matter how many times I 'comment' lines in the p16f690.inc file, I

can't get past this stage.


Please help.

A listing of 'ledblinky' and 'p16f690.inc' that will compile would be

appreciated.

Thanks

TOF.

Look for #CONFIG in manual...

[Archangel]

This ought to get you started if you are using PBP 3.

#IF __PROCESSOR__ = "16F690"
#config
cfg1 = _INTRC_OSC_NOCLKOUT  ; Internal oscillator
cfg1&= _WDT_OFF             ; Watch Dog Timer disabled
cfg1&= _PWRTE_OFF           ; Power-up Timer disabled
cfg1&= _MCLRE_ON            ; Master Clear Reset enabled
cfg1&= _CP_OFF              ; Program Code Protection is disabled
cfg1&= _CPD_OFF             ; Data Code Protection is disabled
cfg1&= _BOD_OFF             ; Brown-out Detect disabled
cfg1&= _IESO_OFF            ; Internal External Switchover mode is disabled
cfg1&= _FCMEN_OFF           ; Fail-safe Clock Monitor is disabled
 __CONFIG  cfg1             ; Set the configuration bits   
#ENDCONFIG
#else
    #MSG "Wrong microcontroller selected!"
#endif
DEFINE OSC 4
ANSEL = %00000000
;CMCON0 = %00000111
;CMCON1 = %00000010
PORTC = 0
ANSELH=0
ADCON0 = 0
ADCON1 = 0

BTW I use those same demo boards.

Thank you Archangel,

My brain don't hurt so much now......

info: had to click 'release from reset'.
