Still Struggling with IF THEN

[Russ Kincaid]

I have an LED on GPIO.0, I want it to light when GPIO.1 is low. In this program the LED comes on for 1 second at the beginnig, goes off for 1/2 sec then comes on and stays on. It does not matter if GPIO.1 is high or low. How do I make it work only when GPIO.1 is low?
rem device = 12F675

high GPIO.0
PAUSE 1000

ANSEL = 0 'GPIO.0 TO GPIO.3 SET AS DIGITAL
OPTION_REG = 0 'WEAK PULLUPS ENABLED
GPIO = %00111110 'PORT GPIO.0 SET LOW INITIALLY
WPU = %00110110 'SETS WEAK PULLUP ON DIGITAL INPUTS


rem define variables
time1 var byte: time2 var byte: time4 var byte: time8 var byte
time var word
LOW GPIO.0
PAUSE 500
IF NOT GPIO.1 THEN
HIGH GPIO.0
ELSE
LOW GPIO.0
ENDIF
END

The first thing that appears to me to be missing is the config settings for the device

@ __CONFIG _INTRC_OSC_NOCLKOUT & _WDT_ON & _PWRTE_ON & _MCLRE_OFF & _BODEN_ON

I would also suggest that you use external pullup resistors of around 10K rather than rely on the internal WPU

[Russ Kincaid]

Thanks. the internal pullup seems to be working OK. I set the configuration at programming time, I thought that was sufficient?

What if instead of

IF NOT GPIO.1 THEN

You use

IF GPIO.1=0 THEN

? just curious to see if there's any difference

I always find it good practice to set the config bits in the code..

The following turns on an LED on GPIO.0 when GPIO.1 is grounded (external 10K pullup) - Hope it helps


@ __CONFIG _INTRC_OSC_NOCLKOUT & _WDT_ON & _PWRTE_ON & _MCLRE_OFF & _BODEN_ON

ANSEL = 0
CMCON=7
TRISIO = %101010

LED var GPIO.0

main:
IF GPIO.1=0 THEN
LED=1
ELSE
LED=0
ENDIF
goto main:

Yes, I tried that, no difference.

[malc-c]

It may not be the most structured of codes, but this also demonstrates the IF...Then...Else option



@ __CONFIG _INTRC_OSC_NOCLKOUT & _WDT_ON & _PWRTE_ON & _MCLRE_OFF & _BODEN_ON

ANSEL=0
CMCON=7
TRISIO = %101010

LED var GPIO.0

main:
IF GPIO.1=0 THEN
goto flash
ELSE
LED=0
ENDIF
goto main:

Flash:
LED=1
If GPIO.1=1 then main:
pause 100
LED=0
pause 100
goto flash:


I think your original problem was in setting the PIC up as digital and turning off the analogue functions, hence the ANSEL and CMCON settings

Wow... I'm only a newbie and I've managed to pass on some advice... maybe my status should change from newbie to novice :) ;)

Thanks, that works, now if I can work it into my program! I think the thing that makes it work is CMCON=7. I tried that earlier but misspelled it so got an error.

[Russ Kincaid]

The IF THEN statements compile OK if I comment out the TRISIO line. The error message is: Warning line 15: $111110 numeric overflow. TRISIO never gave me a problem before, what is wrong?

rem device = 12F675
CMCON = 7
ANSEL = 0 'GPIO.0 TO GPIO.3 SET AS DIGITAL
OPTION_REG = 0 'WEAK PULLUPS ENABLED
TRISIO = $111110 'GPIO.0 SET AS OUTPUT, ALL OTHERS INPUT
GPIO = %111110 'PORT GPIO.0 SET LOW INITIALLY
WPU = %110110 'SETS WEAK PULLUP ON DIGITAL INPUTS
rem define variables
time1 var byte: time2 var byte: time4 var byte: time8 var byte
time var word
IF GPIO.1 = 0 THEN
time1 = 1
ELSE
TIME1 = 0
ENDIF

Needs to be % not $
try
TRISIO = %111110

[Russ Kincaid]

Thanks, I should have noticed that!
My program runs now, not quite right yet, but I am getting there.

Excellent... the 12F675 can be a finiky thing to configure right... especially for us newbies ;)
