We are happy to help if you have specific questions. It’s a fairly straight forward process start with the datasheets and PICBasic user manual; specifically OWIN and OWOUT.
Go here to see OWIN and OWOUT examples: http://www.melabs.com/resources/samples.htm
Hello DynamoBen.
Thank you for reply. I need to adapt code written for Basic Stamp 2p24 module.
I’d like to program PIC16F84A – 04/P to display voltage and temperature on Hitachi 44780 style display. I tried to download this program directly to PIC Basic PRO complier, but it gives error messages. As I’m just started with this product and I need little help, please. Can you correct following code?

"Can you correct following code?"
This forum tends to take the "teach a man to fish" attitude. We try to provide people with information to assit them with problems not solve them for the person. I and others are more than happy to assist you with specific problems or questions. Keep in mind we don't have a schematic and often don't know what the intentions of your design are.
Your code seems very close to being correct. Make sure you have read through the section at the back of the manual about the differences between PICBasic and Stamp. That will help.
I do see that you have a bunch of debug commands which I would assume are supposed to be text sent to the LCD; if so check out the LCDOut command. These debug statements are causing your errors, lcdout should remedy this. You will also want to specify the xtal speed you are using with the following command at the top of your program:
DEFINE OSC 20 ; 20mhz XTAL (change notes above)
Beyond that I found that the search function in the forum will turn up a lot of useful info. I too was a beginner once so I understand the challenges you are facing; that being said you have a jumpstart since what you have works on a stamp.
Hello DynamoBen.
I couldn’t agree with you more! I’m talking about “teach a man to fish attitude”.
But like anyone else living on this planet I’m trying to find easiest ways first. Another point I’m just started reading PIC BASIC Pro manual, and as English isn’t my native language it probably takes me about a week to finish. I’m very impatient person and after I spent almost 300 CAD I’d really like to accomplish something in first two days. Especially DS2436 voltage monitor project, as I already tried to put through on Basic Stamp II, unsuccessfully unfortunately. That’s why my attempt to put problems on somebody’s shoulders is not a habit; it is just exiting about new “toy” and wish to play with it as soon as possible. I assure you in few weeks I will be familiar with PIC Basic and I will write such program from scratch myself.
Anyway, thank you for your messages I will check up web site for similar programs and hints.
Best regards
Vladimir
The best way to learn is:
Read and understand the datasheets and user manual
Review the Melabs examples (some of which come from users on this forum)
Utilize the search function above
and most of all...experiment.
If you still can't find your answer, go ahead and post. This forum is a wealth of information; and a nice bunch of people. ;)
Soon you too with be a contributing member.
Hi Vladimir,
Just wanted to reinforce that Ben pretty much hit the nail on the head.
DEBUG is your biggest problem. It's not the same in PBP.
Something to focus in on, instead of trying to learn it all at once.

See you didn't need us to correct the code, well done!
I'm planning to construct a power-on delay device which mimics the functionality of a simple REF-Guard. I'm using PIC16F628A and wire three 7-Segment displays inorder to display the countdown in seconds. After countdown, the device will display the reading of the Mains voltage on the 7-segment displays or to an LCD. My problem is how to monitor read the Mains voltage and display it on an LCD or 7-segment. How do i monitor the power fluctuation or a sudden low voltage. Anybody who knows how to monitor (real-time) then 220vAC?
How about monitoring/reading DC voltages?
Hi emavil,
Say you are monitoring AC line and it is 220VAC.
This is your initial reference voltage.
But suddenly it drops to say 205VAC.
Then, you want to display the difference of 15 ?
Or it goes up to 238V, for example, and you want to show the difference of 18 ?
Is my understanding correct?
-----------------------
Vrms=Vmax*0.707
Maybe you could use some Zero crossing, and do an average around Vrms point on the SinWave? (45 degree, 2.08mSec after zero crossing for a 60Hz sine)
OR use a simple transformer BUT calibrate it... :eek:
OR Use the AC line, rectify it, drop the voltage to something readable, then process the whole thing.
Everything above will need calibration anyway.
