Handeling multiple Interrupts

Hi people,

I have a 16f877 in which I am trying to use different interrupts for the timers.
My interrupt code is below but it wont do what I need. If I remove timer1 section then the timer0 section works and visa versa.
Can you see anything I have done wrong?

Off the top of my head, and maybe to give you a head start, and I haven't looked thru the code entirely, TMR0 interrupts happen a lot more often than TMR1. Maybe your int routine kicks out without checking TMR1 before it kicks out. Also, when the int routine does kick out, TMR0 might have kick over again, another int for TMR0, but TMR1 doesn't get hit.
Before you kick out of the TMR0 routine, go back and check your INT bits again. TMR0 might not be there, but TMR1 might. And you need a loop to run in the AFTERINT portion. Just a '10 goto 10' type thing will suffice.
And again...I'll look a bit harder at your code and see if I can spot anything obvious...or not...

thanks

Thanks for the time
Appreciate it

Now that I think about it

Now that I think about it, skimask
The timer0 interrupt is the one not being delt with and not the other way around. If the tmr0 int happens more often then I would expect to see it happen and maybe miss the others.

Would you not agree?

Isn't that what I said? :)

"TMR0 interrupts happen a lot more often than TMR1."

The only reason I said TMR0 would happen more often is because it's 8 bit (usually). At any rate, you probably need to re-enter the interrupt routine to check on other interrupt sources in case they happen in the middle of your initial interrupt routine.

I dont get it

Hmmm.....
Sort of. But if what you say is correct then the TMr0 interrupt would be seen and not the tmr1.
I am seeing the Tmr1 and not the Tmr0.

Am I missing something in what your saying?

Your original code with a few changes.

MAINLOOP:
pauseus 1 : goto mainloop

END '<- VERY Important to have this part!

Try that. Added new labels to recheck the interrupt flags and a loop for the program to run while it waits for stuff to handle.

Thanks

I realy do appreciate your help here.
As you no doubt know, it can get realy frustrating when things Should work but dont.

Ill try this code tonight

Ok, it's this thread.
Hurry up! Get on it! Some readers (me in particular) are dying to know! :)

I will

I work in a University.
The programmer is at home.
I am itching to try it too but we will have to be patient now wont we.

No good.

No good dude.
Didnt work either.

I am going to rewrite it all starting with tmr0 interrupt when I can find info on its use.
Then I will impliment the tmr1.

Thanks anyway for the time.

got it

Yes.........
after 3 hours of looking at the same thing I spotted it.
I miised a line that starts the TMR0.
The option register had to be set and she sprang into life.

Thanks for the help.
Now onto the next step.

Sweet deal. I was just about to start rewriting things...saved me some time...

Thanks for the help mate.

Ive started a real bun fight in the other forum about Darrel Taylors software.
I must be more careful about how I word questions in here in future.

Anyway, thanks again for the help. I can deal with all of the interrupts easily now.

I don't think there's might of a 'bun fight' (WTH?) going on...much anyways.. :)
