Hi mackrackit,
I've got something that 'works'
If I just load the program into the 16F684 and leave it running, every 10 secs PORTA.1 LED blinks as per the Timeout setting. I've given it a 10 secs delay because it takes about 4 secs to input two numbers into my clunky old keyboard.Code:ANSEL = %00000000 'Disable analog select so ports work as digital i/o. CMCON0 = %00000111 'Disable analog comparators. TRISA = %00000000 'Set PORTA as OUTPUT. PORTA = %00000000 'Set PORTA pins all low. TRISC = %00000000 'Set PORTC as OUTPUT. PORTC = %00000000 'Set PORTC pins all low. DEFINE OSC 4 NUM1 VAR BYTE NUM2 VAR BYTE TOTAL VAR BYTE Timeout con 10000 MAIN: PAUSE 250 SERIN2 PORTC.5, 16780,Timeout,Data_Not_Sent,[DEC NUM1, DEC2 NUM2] PAUSE 6000 HIGH PORTA.5 PAUSE 1000 LOW PORTA.5 LET TOTAL = NUM1 + NUM2 PAUSE 250 SEROUT2 PORTC.3, 16780, [DEC TOTAL, 10] pause 250 DATA_Not_sent: High PORTA.1 PAUSE 75 LOW PORTA.1 GOTO MAIN
You might be wondering why there's a six second delay after the NUM's are inputted, it's so I can visually see via the LED PORTA.5 that it has arrived (if that makes sense).
What do you think.
Dave
