Asm sleep - pbp sleep

[MOUNTAIN747]

My project uses a 16F1936 on both a Master and a Slave board. Durring the program the Master sends a code for the Slave to run a subroutine to SLEEP. I am trying to use ASM SLEEP as to NOT designate a time to wake. twenty two hours after the slave enters sleep it recieves a USART comm which should WAKE the slave from SLEEP. Problem is the slave is not going to sleep, or it wakes right away after the command. So, how to trouble shoot SLEEP? I can't monitor the STATUS, PD bit while in sleep, I can only use an indicator LED when going into the SLEEP instruction and toggle it off when exit the sleep instruction, and it is toggling right away.
One observation is that PBP asks for a period whenever I type SLEEP in the ASM module. Can PBP tell the difference between ASM SLEEP and PBP SLEEP or are they both seen as a PBP command? Comments please.

    INTbit=1             'Set Cvar to break out of Start loop                                                                                           
    Com_Enable=0       ' Con_enable not needed to RX
    hserin [Bvar] 
@ INT_RETURN    ;goes back to INTerrupt locaion. which is Start loop.

                gosub  SleepMode	;subroutine to place Slave in Sleep mode
    end select

    nop
ENDASM
    PortA.1=1                   ;Indicator LED ON  at exit SLEEP
    return
    end

The Master does not use the comm line for the next 22 hours.

@ SLEEP
@ NOP

It often makes a difference adding the NOP right after SLEEP.

[richard]

at a guess is it possible there is still activity on the serial input ie a cr/lf after the command.
your code might see a RCIDL condition between these chrs and pop into and straight out of sleep
try a small delay before calling sleepmode a 2chr time delay can't hurt here

It often makes a difference adding the NOP right after SLEEP.

which you have already is necessary, the extra two in use may not be adding much value but won't hurt

PIC16F1936, PBP PRO 2.60, MPASM,
My Slave Board receives com from the Master Board and runs Subroutines.
Slave operates in tight loop at Start.
On EUSART INT Slave receives one command Byte from Master and advances to CaseAction (Multi-IF THENs) which will branch to Sub to take action.
When Slave receives a code for Sleep Mode (CASE 7) is run.

Here’s where my problems start!
It seams that the RCIDL bit is never being set after Rx.
Will not go into SLEEP mode with or without -
BTFSS BAUDCON,RCIDL ;Check for High, no receive in progress
GOTO $-1
Before WUE bit is set.
What would prevent RCIDL from being set? Even after a hundred cycles after Comm is complete? Data Sheet says this bit should be set on EUSART Stop bit. At this time no Rx is coming from the Master. Can’t get any SLEEP!

[richard]

your code is an uncompilable snippet so its hard to know whats going on


there are issues here

@    MOVF BAUDCON,0      ‘Is RCIDL idel?  Set for Idel    	‘For testing               
@    MOVWF _Avar     	‘For testing                   				
    Avar=Avar dig 6  		‘For testing

what bank is baudcon in ?
what bank is Avar in ?
from the looks of it Avar must be byte , how can it ever have a Dig 6

whats wrong with one of these ,one of them will produce efficient code i'm sure

if baudcon & 64 then
avar=1
else
avar=0
endif

or

avar=baudcon.6

or

avar=(baudcon&64) >>6

Here is something from me:

1. Leave the RX pin unconnected for testing. Check the pin state. Does it stay low or high? If it is high and you get int at high already, then it never sleeps.
2. IF all ok, then before sleep instructon, disable GIE and PEIE first. Disable eusart module. Then re-enable it. clear the flags. Then enable GIE, PEIE and lastly usart int bit. Make sure usart flag is cleared, and Usart int bit enabled at the last just before SLEEP command.
3. There should be at least two NOP() immediately after SLEEP.
4. If there are some other ints in your code not shown here, than they may be the cause of wake up. Remember, Most of the ext int sources wake the device up eventhough you do not care for them. Make sure you disable all other ext int sources (if you are using any) before SLEEP.

[Acetronics2]

I read somewhere in microchip datasheets there might be a @NOP just past the @SLEEP ...

INT1 is the wakeup event.

here it has been working fine for me ... for about 15 years ! ( Lawn tractor computer ... )
