Trying to migrate to 18F..

[Bruce]

It would really help to know which PIC you're compiling for, and which compiler you're
using....

Are you compiling for an 18F2550 or 18F2520?

Are you actually compiling with PBP 2.50b, 2.47, 2.46...?

[Glenn]

I probably shouldnt try to do anything serious at the middle of the night

The pic is a 18F2520, and I have no idea why I choosed to post the include for 2550 ..probably too tired

PBP is version 2.50b, HOWEVER the include states "Version: 2.47", I GUESS that this is normal however since I did a standard installation, but I installed it over my old installation, which I dont remember what version it was, but it can have been 2.46 or 2.47.

[Bruce]

It's porobably 2.5. Not all include files are updated with each new version.

If you try the example I posted above, with config settings in the code, then you'll need to comment the config settings in your 18F2520.INC file just like you did with your 18F2550.INC file.

Then get some sleep...

[Glenn]

Yes, I guess so too, no need for changing the version of the includes if nothing in them have been changed.

and I comented out everything in the correct include, now it looks like:

        NOLIST
    else
        LIST
        LIST p = 18F2520, r = dec, w = -311, w = -230, f = inhx32

    endif
        LIST

..And the actual code look like:

asm
  __CONFIG _CONFIG1H, _OSC_INTIO67_1H & _FCMEN_OFF_1H & _IESO_OFF_1H
  __CONFIG _CONFIG2H, _WDT_OFF_2H & _WDTPS_512_2H
  __CONFIG _CONFIG3H, _CCP2MX_PORTC_3H & _PBADEN_OFF_3H & _LPT1OSC_OFF_3H & _MCLRE_OFF_3H
  __CONFIG _CONFIG4L, _STVREN_OFF_4L & _LVP_OFF_4L & _XINST_OFF_4L
endasm
        
DEFINE OSC 32     ' internal 8MHz x 4 with PLL enabled

blueled var LATB.4 ' prevents read-modify-write
redled  var LATB.5 ' problems

OSCTUNE = %0100000 ' turn on PLL for 4 x 8MHz
OSCCON = %01110000 ' set 8MHz internal osc
ADCON1 = %00001111 ' disable all A/D

main:
  low redled
  low blueled
  pause 500
  high redled
  pause 500
  high blueled
  pause 500
  goto main
  
  END

..And it compiled with no errors.

The setup is just a PIC18F2520 with pin20 connected to +5V, 8/19 to gnd,
a 10k resistor from pin1 (MCLR) to +5V, and two LED's connected via resistors
from pin 26 (RB5) and 25 (RB4) I also added two cap's between Vcc and gnd,
one 1uF and one 100nF.

I also have a pickit2 connector wired up to usual pins.

..And now I'm going to the bed

[Glenn]

I'm starting to suspect that this PIC is broken.. but its a bit strange that it's possible to program and verify it anyway.

I'll see if I can buy another one tomorrow, but I dont think my local supplier have it in stock..
