Re: Beginner- blinking led's on pickit 2 starter kit
Hey Jason,
Wellcom to the forum...
A little more detail about your background in programming and PIC's might help the forum members to know how to help you.
Do you have a PIC Basic Compiler yet?
If not... there is a Demo version available over on the http://melabs.com/pbpdemo.htm web site. I think the Pic Basic Pro version is the way to go if you plan on doing a lot of projects with the PIC microcontrollers (although it is around $250 US) but it's worth it in the long run.
What IDE (integrated development environment) are you using?? I use MicroCodeStudio... which is available free.
I can post a few of my starting programs to help you get started. But I need to know what you have on hand and your background.
For me, starting out, the hardest thing was to understand the configuration registers for the various periperals on the micro's. They can be difficult to get your mind around. But, they make the PIC's very flexible.
I have a couple of LED blinker programs that I can post.
Do you have some example code that you have allready been working on??
were here to help

These PIC's are like intricate puzzles just waiting for one to discover their secrets and MASTER their capabilities.
