Need 4 modes with just 3 switches - need all modes to be selectable QUICKLY!

See if this works.

Bruce,

Many thanks for the example - you're a diamond.

Alas, it's not compiling on my PC - I'm certain that I've a parameter wrong somewhere or other on my machine, becuase after finishing posting last night such was my keeness, I spent another hour trying to get a very minimalist IOC test program to compile - & I was getting the same type of compilation errors.

The errors I'm seeing (both last night & now with your program) are as follows....

Error[128] [filepath]test_ioc.asm: Missing Arguments
Error[113] [filepath]test_ioc.asm: Symbol not previously defined (IntFlagReg)
Error[113] [filepath]test_ioc.asm: Symbol not previously defined (IntFlagBit)
Error[101] [filepath]test_ioc.asm: ERROR (Interupt Source (IntFlagReg, IntFlagBit) not found


If I remove the RABC_INT entry in in the interupt header & replace with INT_INT - it always compiles fine.

Any tips greatfully received, as I'm not getting off the ground with this IOC melarkey (& I'm chomping at the bit to breadboard the MKII 'no diodes' puppy!)

Many thanks once again.

Hank.

(PS I'm using V1.0 - the latest DTS-14.BAS)

Hi hank ...

Did you select the right processor ???

Compiles fine, here ( 386 Words ).

PBP 2.60 " not patched yet" ...

Hi Alain,

I'm selecting my intended PIC (a 16F690)

Likewise PBP V2.6 (unpatched) but just patched it about 20 mins ago - still didn't compile (same errors)

I'm thinking it's likely something to do with my DTS_INTS-14.bas (I used the one at the bottom of this page... http://darreltaylor.com/DT_INTS-14/intro2.html )

( A quick search for some of the errors I'm seeing brings up stuff relating to DT's interupt routines - so likely something I've not got right wrt that aspect )

[Bruce]

Drop a copy of DT_INTS-14.bas and ReEnterPBP.bas in the same directory as the file you're compiling, or save the file to the same directory they're already in.

Thanks Bruce.....that seems to have got rid of the majority of my errors.

After dropping it into the right directory 9there was one in there...but it must have been ab older version?), I did get some relating to wsave, a judiscous amount of trial & error with commenting the DTS_INTS-14.bas....

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
' ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now the only error I have left is this one....

Error [118] [filepath]test_ioc.asm Overwriting previous address content (2007)

....which I'm without a clue how to sort! (help!)

[Bruce]

The last error is because you have config settings in your code, and in your 16F690.INC file.

Success!!! (both with the compilation and on the breadboard!) ie if I Press switch 1 the LED blinks once, press Sw2 blinks twice etc - you'd never have thought a couple of blinking LEDs could make a grown man so happy!)

Many *many* thanks Bruce for hanging in there with me - now off to have a dabble (& work out what you've done!)
