Serin timeout not working properly!

[Bruce]

The timeout period gets continuously reset if there's noise on the serial input pin. If you're trying to use this option with a noisy RF receiver, the timeout/label approach isn't going to work.

Are there any other options?
I tried removing timeout period and use DT Interrupts, but it gave list of following errors.

Open DT_INTS-14.bas and read the first few lines about the wsave errors.

Thanks for showing the starting point. I have fired a bullet in the dark as I do not know much about ASM, banks and stuff. BUT it has reduced the errors.

I still have few errors left.
My DT_IN... .bas looks like this now:

;wsave       var byte    $20     SYSTEM      ' location for W if in bank0
wsave       var byte    $70     SYSTEM     ' alternate save location for W 
                                            ' if using $70, comment out wsave1-3
'
' --- IF any of these three lines cause an error ?? ---------------------------- 
'       Comment them out to fix the problem ----
' -- It depends on which Chip you are using, as to which variables are needed --
;wsave1      var byte    $A0     SYSTEM      ' location for W if in bank1
;wsave2      var byte    $120    SYSTEM      ' location for W if in bank2
;wsave3      var byte    $1A0    SYSTEM      ' location for W if in bank3

And the errors are following:

OK, did some lookaround for the problem.
I have also commented in ReEnterPBP.bas the following

 '   T3_Save     VAR WORD
 '   T4_Save     VAR WORD

Now it seems that I am quiet near but one warning message is there still :

Executing: ........"TxRx.bas"

Any advise if I should be bothered about the warning message?

[Bruce]

The 12F635 only has 64 bytes SRAM so if you're using DT ints with a PBP int handler you may need to free up some SRAM, and keep your int handler as simple as possible.

Hard to say without seeing what you're doing.

[Megahertz]

Hi Bruce, it seems we jumped across each others post at the same time. I have succeeded in building the project but a warning is there.

Warning[206] D:\BACKUP.........TXRX.ASM 752 : Found call to macro in column 1. (INT_CREATE)

Should I worry about it? Thanks for all the help.


P.S. Is there any online calculator around which can easily advise me when to expect the interrupt with TMR1 with 1:8 prescaler (4MHz) and also if DT Interrupts work with TMR0 in 12F635?

[Bruce]

Have you tried moving INT_CREATE out of column 1?

Edit: Look for a copy of Mister Es' calculator. Should be a link in a thread around here somewhere.

I don't think the calculator is going to help with what works & doesn't with DT ints, but Darrel already

Column 1 ? What does it mean? Is it putting the ASM code somewhere in the middle of the code? Sorry for my ignorance on this topic.
