I have to ask. Can you make an LED blink with the correct timing?
What do you get if you connect the PIC to a terminal? Is it sending anything?

I just found out that I can't even make an Led to blink. Maybe there's a problem with the Pic itself. I will try to use another Pic this evening and try again with the code provide by arati.
Hi azmax100,
Let's pretend we never used a BS2, and we are using just PICs, and lose Include BS2Defs . . . and all their hokey renaming of ports cause it really just confuses hell out of me anyway.
Go back to the basics, check your config settings, did you set tris and port registers properly, disable all the analog . . . does your chip have ansel, adcon, adcon1, adcon0, cmcon, cmcon0, cmcon1, . . . . Did you DEFINE OSC ? Does it match the config ? Is mclr or mclre enabled? If so do you have a pullup resistor ? Make sure the LED is not reverse biased (this is an issue, I have LEDs where the Anode is the long lead and I have LEDs where the cathode is the long lead). Is the power supply voltage correct and of sufficient power output? Is it filtered properly? Make sure LVP is disabled, until all is working, enable PWRTE and WDT

I was afraid of that. So, like Joe said, lets start from scratch.
First, these are a must read:

Now for the configs. In the PBP directory you will see *.inc files as the thread above talks about. Comment out the correct lines. Make it look like this.
I will assume you are using Micro Code Studio. Make sure MPLAB is installed and have MCS set to use MPASM. This is not really needed for this PIC but in the future it will be so we will start off right. In MCS tool bar - View-Compiler and Program Options- then the Assembler tab. Check use MPASM.Code:NOLIST ifdef PM_USED LIST include 'M16F87xA.INC' ; PM header ; device pic16F877A, xt_osc, wdt_on, lvp_off, protect_off XALL NOLIST else LIST LIST p = 16F877A, r = dec, w = -302 INCLUDE "P16F877A.INC" ; MPASM Header ; __config _XT_OSC & _WDT_ON & _LVP_OFF & _CP_OFF NOLIST endif LIST
Now for some basic code to see if all is working.
When the above is working we can do a simple serial output to a terminal. MCS has on built in.Code:'16F877A HEART_BEAT DEFINE OSC 20 '#################### @ __config _HS_OSC & _WDT_OFF & _LVP_OFF & _CP_OFF &_BODEN_OFF ADCON1=7 CMCON=7 START: HIGH PORTD.2 PAUSE 100 LOW PORTD.2 PAUSE 100 GOTO START

I am very sorry to trouble you people with my problem. I really appreciate your help.
Now I can make the leg moving but after three or four move it will stall. It's seem like I have to off and on the signal voltage to make it move smoothly. I don't know what happen.
This is my first time with serial servo and humanoid.
here is my code:

Joe and I must be good!!! You went from not being able to make an LED blink to having the leg move very quickly
Take a look at the flow of your code.
I see it GOSUBing right to END. I do not see any place that LOOPs.
Dave
Always wear safety glasses while programming.
The code is for the left and right leg. I am using gosub to make the leg move in different angle.
I am not sure either this is the correct way but I am just trying a lot of time to makes thing correct.
The angle of the leg move up to gosub R2a then it stall. The servo is holding the position and not moving to other angle.
Am I doing the right thing?
One more thing. I got this when I compiled the code -
Warn Isobot1.ASM 893 :[102] code cross bounadry @800h
Warn Isobot1.ASM 1549 :[102] code cross bounadry @1000h
What is that mean.

One of your questions and maybe future questions is answered here.
http://www.picbasic.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=11116
your code.
If that is just the leg routine and you have more then I do not see a problem there. And with it only getting part way through it....
Kind of sounds like it good be a power supply problem causing a brown out. Can you monitor the voltage coming into the PIC? Maybe add if you do not have one a capacitor or two between VSS and VDD.
At this point a schematic, configs and the whole code might help us figure it out. I am guessing you did rewrite this as Joe suggested and loose the BS2 stuff?
Dave
Always wear safety glasses while programming.
Wow, do not be sorry, it is a challenge, not a trouble, if we were not happy to help, we would not do it.
You have the code tags reversed, that is why they did not work for you, the [/code] goes after the code
I agree with Dave, make sure to bypass the power supply line going to the servos, I would put a capacitor at each servo's connection.Now I can make the leg moving but after three or four move it will stall. It's seem like I have to off and on the signal voltage to make it move smoothly. I don't know what happen.
This is my first time with serial servo and humanoid.
Again I agree with Dave, your code executes to the end and has nowhere to go, put a label ( main: ) before your sub directories and a goto main after them or a goto somewhere else you want it to go, you need some kind of loop that checks for YOUR input, since this robot will likely be under Your control. I understand this is just 1 legs control software, but until it becomes just a part of a larger program, it should have some way back to you, yes the returns should do it everytime, but it only cost a word or 2 to have the insurance policy.Originally Posted by mackrackit
Try your PIC on a separate power supply (batteries) from your servos, as Dave pointed out it may be browning out or just getting a bunch of hash from the servos into it's power input.
