INCLUE for continuous clock

[Woodzy]

Hi all,
I have been using this little include on PIC16F876A's for ages without a flaw.
But, for some reason it wont work in an 877A.
Any tips or clues would be much appreciated.

cheers

The ASM routine assumes that the time variables are in BANK0.

If the program has grown in size, there may be more variables which push i_hour, i_minu, i_sec and i_tic into a different Bank.

Adding BANK0 modifiers to the variable declarations may help, but it's a long shot without knowing the rest of the code.
If the variables are still in BANK0, I see no reason why it shouldn't work with a 16F877A.

i_hour var BYTE BANK0
i_minu var BYTE BANK0
i_sec var BYTE BANK0
i_tic var BYTE BANK0

Darrel,
Thanks mate for your quick reply.
I will give your suggestion a go and get back to you.
