16F1827 setup

[Macgman2000]

Bruce,

I have IDE 7.52. No didn't see the 16F1827.INC in the MPASM directory....sigh. If I upgrade now will it screw up all my other working code for other chip bodies?

ggrrrrr.

Best Regards,
Nick

You're joking Nick ???

MPLAB is @ 8.43 Version !!! ... Ok if PBP 2.60 already is on your computer.

v 8.15 if not ...

No soucy when Upgrading MPLAB ...

Not forbidden ( read recommended ) to save your projects files BEFORE upgrading ...

Alain,

Still nothing. I upgraded to 8.46. Now when I compile it opens up a DOS window and does something REALLY quick using MPASMwin.exe then returns with a bunch of errors.....my code is below....

Is it sufficient to choose the device in MicroStudio or do I need to call it within the ASM section in the code?

Ok ...

1) Did you make the mods Bruce pointed at in his 6th February post ???

you DO have to make them ...

Also, check your PI14EEXT.BAS to make sure it has APFCON0 VAR BYTE EXT and not
APFCON VAR BYTE EXT.

There should also be these definitions in the PI14EEXT.BAS file;

Code:
MDCON VAR BYTE EXT
MDSRC VAR BYTE EXT
MDCARH VAR BYTE EXT
MDCARL VAR BYTE EXT

If these aren't in there, just add them.

2) just Paste Bruce's code in MCS:

MUST compile without any error in MCS if 1) has been done.

As simple as that.

Alain,

I recopied the code from your post. Still getting

Symbol not previously defined (PortC)
Symbol not previously defined (TRISC)
etc etc etc

[Acetronics2]

Hi,

Got it ...

Devices affected: 16F1826, 16F1827
Date encountered: 08/2009
Error class: safe (always reported)

There are invalid port aliases in the PBP header file for these parts. The following assembly errors will be generated:

Symbol not previously defined (PORTC)
Symbol not previously defined (TRISC)
Workaround:

Edit the files 16F1826.BAS and 16F1827.BAS (found in the PBP install folder) as follows:

PORTL VAR PORTB
PORTH VAR PORTA ' PORTC invalid, change to PORTA
TRISL VAR TRISB
TRISH VAR TRISA ' TRISC invalid, change to TRISA

This is from a Melab's errata sheet Darrel Pointed at some times ago ....
I made the mod a while ago ... so couln't see what's wrong.

Have a nice evening

Alain,

Ok getting somewhere now. When I comment out all the fuse configurations between the ASM and ENDASM I get no errors. With all the mods that you suggested.

I am down to 3 errors.

overwriting previous address contents (8007)
symbol not previously defined (_CAPEN_OFF)
overwriting previous address contents (8008)

What other files do I have to modify to get rid of these errors?

Nick
