Re: IF ....THEN.... problems
You've got a redundancy in your code (maybe on purpose),
First you activate the timer = 1 flag, and in the next line of code you put an " IF timer = 1..."
Also the second IF THEN ELSE is inside the first IF THEN, try separating them.
Try using indent in your coding to see in a better way your routine operation
this is your code...commented
Code:
begin:
pause 100
IF timer = 1 AND relay = 1 THEN
pause 500
timer = 0 'turn off timer'
PAUSE 1000
portb.1 = 0
timer = 1 'turn on timer' '--turned timer = 1
IF timer = 1 AND relay = 1 THEN '--inside first loop? move it out. Timer already turned 1 on previous line, so is always true for that part
pause 500
timer = 0 'turn off timer'
pause 1000
portb.1 = 1
pause 1000
timer = 1 'turn on timer'
ENDIF
ENDIF
Re: IF ....THEN.... problems
Ok, first of all thanks :).
This was part of code.... there is more. First is BUTTON command which activate timer. Then comes the rest of code.... then timer = 0 and again just turn the timer on without pressing button. Here is complete code with button command and corrections:
TRISA = $FF
TRISB = $00
B0 var byte
symbol t1 = porta.1
symbol timer = portb.0
symbol relay = porta.0
begin:
pause 100
IF timer = 1 AND relay = 1 THEN
pause 500
timer = 0 'turn off timer'
PAUSE 1000
portb.1 = 0
timer = 1 'turn on timer'
ENDIF
IF timer = 1 AND relay = 1 THEN
pause 500
timer = 0 'turn off timer'
pause 1000
portb.1 = 1
pause 1000
timer = 1 'turn on timer'
ENDIF
B0 = 0
button t1,0,255,0,B0,1,step 'if button is pressed, go to step'
pause 50
goto begin
step:
timer = 1
goto begin
End
This still do the same. Any help now?
Re: IF ....THEN.... problems
try coding like this:
Code:
IF (timer = 1) and (relay = 1) then
I am not sure if this will work, it seems maybe relay never = 1?
Re: IF ....THEN.... problems
yes relay will be =1 . I will explain. The timer is hardware piece with ne 555 and it has a relay on board. The portb.0 turning on timer(with transistor), and timer relay is on(relay = 0) for some time depending of potentiometer position. After timer turn off(ne555 ), the portb.0 is still on, but timer is not on becouse ne555 turn it off.The relay is off but it is connected to a porta.1 like button. So if relay is off, the pin porta.1 is on high (1) (pull up resistor). That is why the relay = 1 (it should be off and portb.0 is on, but timer is off).
I hope you have understand me :).
All I need is to do this, example:
begin:
IF step1 AND step2 THEN
step3
IF step1 AND step2 THEN
step4
IF step1 AND step2 THEN
step5
goto begin
end
with this order.
Re: IF ....THEN.... problems
Dumb question, what pic are you using and have you set PORTA.0 and 1 to digital?
Re: IF ....THEN.... problems
so can you do this:
Code:
IF (step 1) and (step 2) then : ' notice the : it lets you have multiple steps
step 3
step 4
step 5
endif
did you try it with () around the conditions?
Re: IF ....THEN.... problems
I am using 16F84, all porta have been declarated as inputs( it is like pushbuttons) It works on the begining.. Yes I`ve tried this with ( ) and there is no difference still not working as I want. Maybe this can be done with while....wend or for.... cycle....just don`t know how.
Re: IF ....THEN.... problems
In 16F84 MCLR pin can't be disabled, so 4k7 resistor pullup to +5V or its never going to work
Also for the used inputs use 10K pullups and instead of using the button command, try something a lot simpler:
Code:
b0 = 0 'reset flag
if ti = 0 then 'if pullup pin is in ground
b0 = 1 'activate button press flag
pause 250 'debounce
endif
Try explaining a little better your circuit so i can help you with your code (maybe an schematic or diagram?)
Also remeber that a 16F84 its not the same as a 16F84A for the compiler, check for that.

Re: IF ....THEN.... problems
Thanks for your quick response. I wroted a scheme, but it is hand drawing for now, I hope it will be ok.
In the mean time, I found a way to get this work, but there is another problem again.
This is code:
TRISA = $FF 'Postavi sve pinove porta A kao ulazne
TRISB = $00 'Postavi sve pinove porta B kao izlazne
B0 var byte
i var byte
symbol t1 = porta.1
symbol tajmer = portb.0
symbol rele = porta.0
begin:
pause 100 'vrlo bitna pauza'
while tajmer = 1 and rele = 1
goto petlja
petlja:
i = 0
for i = 1 to 2
If i = 1 then
pause 300
goto petlja1
endif
if i = 2 then
pause 300
goto petlja2
endif
next i
petlja1:
PAUSE 500
tajmer = 0 'iskljuci tajmer'
portb.1 = 0 'ukljuci crvenu diodu veliku'
pause 3000 'pauza 3 sekunde'
petlja2:
tajmer = 1
portb.2 = 0 'ukljuci diodu zelenu'
portb.1 = 1 'iskljuci crvenu diodu'
pause 200
wend 'vrlo bitna pauza'
IF tajmer = 1 AND rele = 1
portb.3 = 0
portb.1 = 1
portb.2 = 1
ENDIF
B0 = 0
button t1,0,255,0,B0,1,ukljucenje 'ako je taster pritisnut idi na ukljucenje'
goto begin
ukljucenje:
tajmer = 1
goto begin
End
The commented is in Serbian so don`t look at it :).
The code do following: after press a pushbutton t1, tajmer is on and it works until it turn off, but only a timer. Its transistor is still on and have to be off and again on to reset. Now transistor for timer is off, some leds are on, pause 3 seconds, then on again transistor and timer, after a while timer goes off, and continuo for the begining again.
The problem now is how to continue to cycle after wend and not to go from begin what this program do ? Becouse program after wend go from the begining again, not considering this IF...AND....Then after wend. I need this, and maybe more examining loops before going to begin again. Maybe this FOR cycle is not good?
Kind regards.
Re: IF ....THEN.... problems
Your IF..Then's are causing you to jump out of the for...next. If you change the GOTO to GOSUB, then add a RETURN after the blocks of code you are jumping to, maybe this will fix the problem.
I must admit I don't really get the goal of your program, but I think you don't intend to jump out maybe?
Re: IF ....THEN.... problems
This with gosub works to, but the exactly same thing happens. I tried to put IF ...then condition in body of gosub to examin again but program just not "see" that and go again from the begin.
Here is a new code:
begin:
pause 100 'vrlo bitna pauza'
while tajmer = 1 and rele = 1
goto petlja
petlja:
PAUSE 500
tajmer = 0 'iskljuci tajmer'
portb.1 = 0 'ukljuci crvenu diodu veliku'
pause 3000
gosub petlja1 'iskljuci crvenu diodu
petlja1:
tajmer = 1 'ukljuci tajmer'
portb.1 = 1 'iskljuci crvenu led'
portb.2 = 0 'ukljuci zelenu led'
return
wend 'vrlo bitna pauza'
B0 = 0
button t1,0,255,0,B0,1,ukljucenje 'ako je taster pritisnut idi na ukljucenje'
goto begin
ukljucenje:
tajmer = 1
goto begin
End
The reason for using hardware timer is becouse I don`t know how to make it with microcontroller and potentiometer, maybe that will makes this code easier. In all this code very important information is when timer stops counting(countdown) which is enabled by relay which is similiar to pushbutton on porta.0.
Re: IF ....THEN.... problems
OK, Maybe I see the problem. AND MAYBE I can explain it. Here goes. This is your program from a few posts back with some added comments:
Code:
TRISA = $FF 'Postavi sve pinove porta A kao ulazne
TRISB = $00 'Postavi sve pinove porta B kao izlazne
B0 var byte
i var byte
symbol t1 = porta.1
symbol tajmer = portb.0
symbol rele = porta.0
begin:
pause 100 'vrlo bitna pauza'
while tajmer = 1 and rele = 1 ' when both are 1, we do this while loop
goto petlja
petlja:
i = 0
for i = 1 to 2
If i = 1 then
pause 300
goto petlja1' EVERY time timer and relay are 1, we go to petlja1
endif
if i = 2 then
pause 300
goto petlja2
endif
next i
petlja1: ' We are here because timer and relay are = 1
PAUSE 500
tajmer = 0 'iskljuci tajmer' ' now timer = 0?
portRETb.1 = 0 'ukljuci crvenu diodu veliku'
pause 3000 'pauza 3 sekunde'
RETURN ' I think you need to add this here
petlja2: ' We are here because we fall in here from petlja1
tajmer = 1 ' now timer = 1 again
portb.2 = 0 'ukljuci diodu zelenu'
portb.1 = 1 'iskljuci crvenu diodu'
pause 200
RETURN' and here
wend 'vrlo bitna pauza' ' go back and check while again. right now timer = 1, relay = ??
' If relay also = 1, you will never get out of the loop.
IF tajmer = 1 AND rele = 1 ' I think you will never get to this check, stuck in the while loop.
portb.3 = 0
portb.1 = 1
portb.2 = 1
ENDIF
B0 = 0
button t1,0,255,0,B0,1,ukljucenje 'ako je taster pritisnut idi na ukljucenje'
goto begin
ukljucenje:
tajmer = 1
goto begin
End
If you change the RED goto to gosub,add the returns, and move the petlja1 and petlja2 routines to the end of the program. It may act as you expect.
Re: IF ....THEN.... problems
This with gosub, return.... not work well. The same again. What about putting in While loop another loop who checking the same condition and if it is not, go to this loop again until real state shows, and then go to another operation. All this inside this begin while....wend loop.
I tried to put petlja1 and petlja2, after wend... and also after buttons goto begin, and after second timer on, it goes off and on immediately, and again from the begining. :(
I`ll try another couple of combinations, and let you know tommorow about it.
Thanks for helping me :).
Best regards.
Re: IF ....THEN.... problems
In this changed code you wrote, the sentence in line with wend, you said: 'go back and check while again. right now timer = 1 and rele = ? 'if releay also = 1, you will never get out of the loop'.
Yes, you are right. The rele is = 1 but after some of time depends of ne 555 chip and potentiometer, otherwise it is = 0 when timer working. When relay is = 1 timer is still ON! but not working until turn the transistor on and off again (+12V for timer). That is big problem, I have to go out from that loop and do testing again in while, and then go back into previous loop. But without colision of theese two loops.

I am sorry for not being clear. I did not mean for you to go and check, I ment this is what the program is doing. and the conditions when it gets there.
Re: IF ....THEN.... problems
Ok, I understand.
Check this new code. There is very strange things happening in pic work. THis code was compiled and after pushing button and timer iz on, after relay is 1, the portb.2 is on?! and then nothing happens. Second compiling the same code in chip, results different cycle. I was wondering if something is wrong with power or chip ? What is difference betwen 16F84A and 16F628, can I use 628 with same code but compile with this type? Maybe that is the problem.
