Setting GPIO and TRISIO

[aratti]

Is there a way to define LEDXs' TRISIO and GPIO and then call LEDX. It would make the repeated use of individual LEDs alot easier.

Not just as you wrote it, but you can semplify this way:

LED_T_1 VAR BYTE
LED_G_1 VAR BYTE
LED_T_2 VAR BYTE
LED_G_2 VAR BYTE

LED_T_1 = %00011110
LED_G_1 = %00000001

LED_T_2 = %00011110
LED_G_2 = %00100000

main:
TRISIO = LED_T_1
  GPIO = LED_G_1
pause 500
TRISIO = LED_T_2
  GPIO = LED_G_2
pause 500
goto main
end

Now since you don,t need to change the TRISIO then you can write:

LED_G_1 VAR BYTE
LED_G_2 VAR BYTE

TRISIO = %00011110
LED_G_1 = %00000001
LED_G_2 = %00100000

main:
GPIO = LED_G_1
pause 500
GPIO = LED_G_2
pause 500
goto main
end

.. or in a normal way you can write:

LED1 VAR GPIO.0
LED2 VAR GPIO.6

TRISIO = %00011110

main:
LED1 = 1
LED2 = 0
PAUSE 500
LED1 = 0
LED2 = 1
PAUSE 500
GOTO MAIN

END

.. again in a more sophisticated way:

LED1 VAR GPIO.0
LED2 VAR GPIO.6

TRISIO = %00011110

main:
LED1 = !LED1
LED2 = !LED1
PAUSE 500
GOTO MAIN

END
