Sleep & nap

Hi,

From " The Manual" $ 5.46

TRUE!

But SLEEP should work, shouldn't it?
The problem is somewhere else, but where?

Hi,

You want a ~1 sec PAUSE ...

use PAUSE 1000 !!!

a PAUSE can be "interrupted" so, there are no problem to use it ...

If you're using the Microchip USB loader, it may have WDT disabled in config.

Try inserting WDTCON.0=1 before any NAP or SLEEP commands to enable WDT.

One would have think that would work, but it did not
What might be wrong?

WDTCON.0=1
sleep 1
lcdout $FE, $C0, "ok"

Can't still se the "ok"

[Acetronics2]

Can't still see the "ok"

Could the problem come from the LCD setup ???

pause 1
lcdout $FE, 1
pause 1

Generally, we allow 500 ms min for the LCD Power on ...

How long are you waiting? If the WDT poscaler in config is set to 32,768 it's going to take around 131 seconds before it wakes-up.

the WDTPS is 128 as in #9, and actually it takes several seconds before that sleep instrucion is reached in the demo code (#9) as well as in the "big" code where I spotted this phenomena/error/failure at first.

I have never seen sleep working, yet...
but I would really like to see it
