    Smile Re: IF ....THEN.... problems

    I am using 16F84, all porta have been declarated as inputs( it is like pushbuttons) It works on the begining.. Yes I`ve tried this with ( ) and there is no difference still not working as I want. Maybe this can be done with while....wend or for.... cycle....just don`t know how.

    In 16F84 MCLR pin can't be disabled, so 4k7 resistor pullup to +5V or its never going to work
    Also for the used inputs use 10K pullups and instead of using the button command, try something a lot simpler:

    Code:
    b0 = 0 'reset flag
    if ti = 0 then 'if pullup pin is in ground
        b0 = 1 'activate button press flag
        pause 250 'debounce
    endif
    Try explaining a little better your circuit so i can help you with your code (maybe an schematic or diagram?)

    Also remeber that a 16F84 its not the same as a 16F84A for the compiler, check for that.

    Thanks for your quick response. I wroted a scheme, but it is hand drawing for now, I hope it will be ok.
    In the mean time, I found a way to get this work, but there is another problem again.
    This is code:

    TRISA = $FF 'Postavi sve pinove porta A kao ulazne
    TRISB = $00 'Postavi sve pinove porta B kao izlazne
    B0 var byte
    i var byte
    symbol t1 = porta.1
    symbol tajmer = portb.0
    symbol rele = porta.0


    begin:
    pause 100 'vrlo bitna pauza'
    while tajmer = 1 and rele = 1
    goto petlja
    petlja:
    i = 0
    for i = 1 to 2
    If i = 1 then
    pause 300
    goto petlja1
    endif

    if i = 2 then
    pause 300
    goto petlja2
    endif

    next i

    petlja1:
    PAUSE 500
    tajmer = 0 'iskljuci tajmer'
    portb.1 = 0 'ukljuci crvenu diodu veliku'
    pause 3000 'pauza 3 sekunde'

    petlja2:
    tajmer = 1
    portb.2 = 0 'ukljuci diodu zelenu'
    portb.1 = 1 'iskljuci crvenu diodu'
    pause 200

    wend 'vrlo bitna pauza'

    IF tajmer = 1 AND rele = 1
    portb.3 = 0
    portb.1 = 1
    portb.2 = 1
    ENDIF

    B0 = 0
    button t1,0,255,0,B0,1,ukljucenje 'ako je taster pritisnut idi na ukljucenje'

    goto begin

    ukljucenje:
    tajmer = 1


    goto begin

    End

    The commented is in Serbian so don`t look at it .

    The code do following: after press a pushbutton t1, tajmer is on and it works until it turn off, but only a timer. Its transistor is still on and have to be off and again on to reset. Now transistor for timer is off, some leds are on, pause 3 seconds, then on again transistor and timer, after a while timer goes off, and continuo for the begining again.
    The problem now is how to continue to cycle after wend and not to go from begin what this program do ? Becouse program after wend go from the begining again, not considering this IF...AND....Then after wend. I need this, and maybe more examining loops before going to begin again. Maybe this FOR cycle is not good?
    Kind regards.

    Your IF..Then's are causing you to jump out of the for...next. If you change the GOTO to GOSUB, then add a RETURN after the blocks of code you are jumping to, maybe this will fix the problem.

    I must admit I don't really get the goal of your program, but I think you don't intend to jump out maybe?

    This with gosub works to, but the exactly same thing happens. I tried to put IF ...then condition in body of gosub to examin again but program just not "see" that and go again from the begin.
    Here is a new code:

    begin:
    pause 100 'vrlo bitna pauza'
    while tajmer = 1 and rele = 1
    goto petlja
    petlja:
    PAUSE 500
    tajmer = 0 'iskljuci tajmer'
    portb.1 = 0 'ukljuci crvenu diodu veliku'
    pause 3000
    gosub petlja1 'iskljuci crvenu diodu


    petlja1:
    tajmer = 1 'ukljuci tajmer'
    portb.1 = 1 'iskljuci crvenu led'
    portb.2 = 0 'ukljuci zelenu led'
    return

    wend 'vrlo bitna pauza'

    B0 = 0
    button t1,0,255,0,B0,1,ukljucenje 'ako je taster pritisnut idi na ukljucenje'
    goto begin




    ukljucenje:
    tajmer = 1


    goto begin

    End

    The reason for using hardware timer is becouse I don`t know how to make it with microcontroller and potentiometer, maybe that will makes this code easier. In all this code very important information is when timer stops counting(countdown) which is enabled by relay which is similiar to pushbutton on porta.0.

    OK, Maybe I see the problem. AND MAYBE I can explain it. Here goes. This is your program from a few posts back with some added comments:
    Code:
    TRISA = $FF 'Postavi sve pinove porta A kao ulazne 
    TRISB = $00 'Postavi sve pinove porta B kao izlazne 
    B0 var byte
    i var byte
    symbol t1 = porta.1
    symbol tajmer = portb.0
    symbol rele = porta.0
    
    
    begin:
    pause 100 'vrlo bitna pauza'
    while tajmer = 1 and rele = 1 ' when both are 1, we do this while loop
    goto petlja 
    petlja:
    i = 0
    for i = 1 to 2
    If i = 1 then
    pause 300
    goto petlja1'     EVERY time timer and relay are 1, we go to petlja1
    endif
    
    if i = 2 then
    pause 300
    goto petlja2 
    endif
    
    next i 
    
    petlja1: '                        We are here because timer and relay are = 1
    PAUSE 500
    tajmer = 0 'iskljuci tajmer' '          now timer = 0?
    portRETb.1 = 0 'ukljuci crvenu diodu veliku'
    pause 3000 'pauza 3 sekunde'
    RETURN ' I think you need to add this here
    
    petlja2: '                         We are here because we fall in here from petlja1
    tajmer = 1 '                     now timer = 1 again
    portb.2 = 0 'ukljuci diodu zelenu'
    portb.1 = 1 'iskljuci crvenu diodu'
    pause 200
    RETURN'    and here
    wend 'vrlo bitna pauza'           ' go back and check while again. right now timer = 1, relay = ??
    '                                            If relay also = 1, you will never get out of the loop.
    
    IF tajmer = 1 AND rele = 1 ' I think you will never get to this check, stuck in the while loop.
    portb.3 = 0
    portb.1 = 1
    portb.2 = 1
    ENDIF
    
    B0 = 0
    button t1,0,255,0,B0,1,ukljucenje 'ako je taster pritisnut idi na ukljucenje'
    
    goto begin
    
    ukljucenje:
    tajmer = 1
    
    
    goto begin
    
    End
    If you change the RED goto to gosub,add the returns, and move the petlja1 and petlja2 routines to the end of the program. It may act as you expect.

    Default Re: IF ....THEN.... problems

    This with gosub, return.... not work well. The same again. What about putting in While loop another loop who checking the same condition and if it is not, go to this loop again until real state shows, and then go to another operation. All this inside this begin while....wend loop.
    I tried to put petlja1 and petlja2, after wend... and also after buttons goto begin, and after second timer on, it goes off and on immediately, and again from the begining.

    I`ll try another couple of combinations, and let you know tommorow about it.

    Thanks for helping me .

    Best regards.
