serial coms - again

malc-c · - 26th August 2010, 21:30

Paul, thanks once again for the reply.

To simplify the testing between the applicatication this chap in Canada has written and my PBP code I've gone back to basics and written a simple test application that simply sends the output to the PC and then test the updating from the PC application.

Code:

Term_RX:
HSERin [dec3 normtemp[0]]
return

The application is simply sending S followed by three digits for normtemp[0] in DEC format, with no carriage returns - However when I click the update button of the application the PIC freezes for around 10 min. I've proved the PIC is responding to the PC app by changing the "S" to "X" (or any other character) which is ignored when the update button is pressed.

Unfortunately given the time difference (I'm in the UK he's in Canada) the logistics of implementing the suggestions of handshaking the way you suggest is not forthcoming.

Any suggestions

**prstein** · - 27th August 2010, 02:09

Hi Malcom,

Try changing the end of your code to this:

Code:

Term_RX:
	TempWD = 0
	HSERIN 1000,RX_Bombed,[DEC3 TempWD]
	normtemp[0] = TempWD
	RETURN
RX_Bombed:
	HSEROUT ["Term_RX bombed out, all we got was", dec TempWD,13,10]
return

This should at least provide some insight into what's going on inside the PIC.

In your test application you ought to put a pause of at least 10 msec or so between when the "S" and the rest of the data are sent. You could also probably test this using the Serial Communicator inside of MicroCode Studio, if you have that. Hyperterm would also work.

I couldn't find your OSC define in this thread. Which oscillator speed are you using?

Oh, and DOH! I just recalled that I think you "terminate" the DEC3 by sending something that isn't a numeric ASCII character. Try sending a carriage return or a line feed after the 3-character value.

Best Regards,
Paul

This is really doing my head in... My friends application simply sends Q on launch, and the S+three digits representing the new value for just one variable followed by Q. Yet I keep getting incorrect values in the receive variable.

Here's the test code. For testing purpose all the values for each variable is fixed to populate his PC application. The only variable that is updated is the Target Temperature for Unit 1.

Code:

  __CONFIG    _CONFIG2L, _PWRT_ON_2L  
  __CONFIG    _CONFIG2H, _WDT_ON_2H & _WDTPS_512_2H
  __CONFIG    _CONFIG3H, _PBADEN_OFF_3H
  __CONFIG    _CONFIG4L, _LVP_OFF_4L & _XINST_OFF_4L

    SELECT CASE nTest
    CASE "S"
            HSERIN [normtemp[0]]

    END SELECT
    gosub send    
return

On booting the PIC it displays the value of normtemp[0] as 240 on the LCD. I've used a serial port monitor and when the application is launched the port sniffer confirms that Q was sent and the PIC dumped the string of values to the port, which the application pics up and populates the text boxes correctly.

The application has been written to allow the user to enter the desired target temperature directly in the associated text box as required such as 45.2 and then click on the UPDATE button. This then sends S followed by the new value as a three digit number in the same format as the PBP code. This can be confirmed by the port sniffer

However, the LCD display then reads 052, and this is then sent back to the PC application (as can be seen if you follow through the digits in the com sniffer top window.

I think by fluke I did manage to get it to work once where the normtemp[0] variable was correctly updated, but that was after a restart of both the windows application and the PIC. What's been suggested is that I need the PBP code to check that the PICs buffer is empty, but I'm not sure on how to best do that.

Eventually we need to be able to update all the values in the rest of the boxes, and it my understanding my friends application will simply send all the values back in one data stream that will match the same as that transmitted (less the first 12 digits as it doesn't need to update the current temperatures - this is a one way transmission from the PIC). Thus the RX section will have HSERIN for each variables as per the HSEROUT section - will this compound the problem or can someone suggest a better way of doing this.

Hi Malcolm,
I think you need to do:

HSERIN [DEC3 NORMTEMP[0]]

/Henrik.

EDIT: Look at post #22 up above, Paul's already covered it, are you saying that IT isn't working either?

Hi Henrik,

I've tried that and it does make a difference, it drops it down to 005 rather than 051, so DEC3 tends to shift things one place to the right.

I've changed Pauls suggestion so it displays the bombed out value on the LCD

Code:

Term_RX:
    HSERIN[nTest]
    SELECT CASE nTest
    CASE "S"
TempWD = 0
	HSERIN 1000,RX_Bombed,[DEC3 TempWD]
	normtemp[0] = TempWD
	    gosub send    
	RETURN
RX_Bombed:
	lcdOUT $FE,$D4,"all we got was", dec TempWD
end select 
return

And the first time I launched the application and booted the PIC I got a result on the screen. I then entered another value and the LCD reported that it bombed with a result of 0. This happens on all subsequent tries, even with the PIC and application being re-started - it seems I get a result first time the PC application is launched.... but no every time - it seems random.... would reducing the baud rate give better results ?

Hi,
I just tried a somewhat modifed version here (to be able to test on my hardware).

Code:

Term_RX:
    HSERIN[nTest]
    SELECT CASE nTest
    CASE "S"
       TempWD = 0
    HSERIN 1000,RX_Bombed,[DEC3 TempWD]
    normtemp[0] = TempWD
    gosub send    
    Goto Term_Rx
RX_Bombed:
    TimeoutCount = TimeOutCount + 1
 lcdOUT $FE,1,"all we got was", dec TempWD,", ", DEC TimeOutCount 
 
    end select 
 
    Goto Term_Rx
 
Send:
    HSEROUT [DEC normtemp[0],10]
RETURN

This seems to work just fine when sending from the serial terminal. The only thing is that there will not be a value assigned to TempWd if HSERIN times out, as can be seen it screenshot.

Question is if the problem is with the PIC code or with the PC application....

/Henrik.

/Henrik.

Uhmm I'm beginning to wonder if it's my PC or possibly Vista ?

I modified the code as suggested (removing the parts that were adjusted for your hardware) and using the serial comms in MCS sent S777 and the LCD reported 0 received by the PIC.
