Hello Kirk,
I have tried your code from post1 using the configs that Mackrackit gave you. It seems to work fine over here. Since you don't have a pause between your on and off, the pulses will occur at about 15000 times per second. "Should scope to > 200Hz" indeed! If you were trying to make a blink (and be able to see it with your naked eye, the common way is to: (Page 6 of the PBP manual)
Code:
Loop1:
portb.0 = 1
pause 500
portb.0 = 0
pause 500
goto Loop1
This will make your LED turn on once per second for half a second.

Perhaps you ought to try the usual strategy of providing software updates. You know, when a new
PIC is available, make an update button on your MicroCode Studio to go to your website and get the
new code for it.
Not sure what you mean about updates. Are you missing some chips in Micro Code Studios drop down menu?
The above "Define" means nothing to me and I can't find anywhere to learn about
it. Your URL is maybe for someone at your level of expertese but I need more handholding.
(See page 33 of the PBP manual, under section 4.16). The define OSC 8 tells PBP what speed your oscillator is set to run at. Without this, PBP assumes you are using a 4 mhz osc, and a pause 1000 will not be one second if you are using a different osc speed.The configs are settings for that particular chip. Each project you do, may need different settings for these configuration fuses, depending on what you are trying to do. You can find them in the data sheet for the chip, but I find it easier to look in the Microchip include files here: C:\Program Files\Microchip\MPASM Suite. If you look at the bottom of the include file for your particular chip, it shows:

This gives a short description of the configuration fuses. For things you have not heard of before, a little research in the data sheet is recommended. See post #5 from the link Mackrackit gave you for some more details about commenting out other configs, if you chose to put the configs in your codespace. http://www.picbasic.co.uk/forum/show...=6775#post6775
Can
you please provide it or tell me what PIC programming system I need to learn and use? Maybe the
C or ASM products? Currently PicBasic PRO doesn't work for my simplest example.
I really like PBP for its ease of programming, and its capabilities. But yes, configs are a pain for the more complex chips. The same pain will be had for C, etc. No matter what language you choose, you will have to learn to set the configs and of course do some data sheet reading.
