Pic basic RB0 ext interrtupt problem
The program below runs a DC motor with a turns counter attached. RB0 detects ext interrupt of the turns counter.
Buttons attached to RB6 and RB7 manually drive the motor up and down. The initialization sequence drives the motor down until it stalls which is detected by A/D and sets the cnt =0. When the motor is driven by either RB0 or RB6 the interrupt counts accurately in both the up and down direction.
However, when the motor is driven by the cnt<> bandcnt code the count is off by almost 50 %. For example, if I manually drive the motor "up" from zero and mark the distance travelled and move back to zero, then make bandcnt=100 the motor will drive and count to 100 but the distance travelled is only equal to 60 turns of distance. I'm at my wits end. I have tested this 100's of times. I checked the code an equal number of times. The interrupt is simple. The code is simple and the mechanics are simple. I hate to make the next statement !
I'm at a lose; it seems like its counting faster in the "auto" mode than the manual mode.
