    Default Illegal upcode

    hello,

    I am getting illegal upcode error when i compile in Micro code studio.
    when i add this line to disable MCLR
    @ DEVICE pic16F88, MCLR_OFF

    but when compiling under the dos interface, I am not getting any error.
    any how even if it is compiling, I need to put a resistor to the MCRL pin of my 16F88.

    i am assembling using MSPASM
    any thoughts?

    I did some modification in the INC files ( both in the PBP directory and the Microchop directory) and no change.

    Ken

    yes i did use the correcte one:
    @ __config _INTRC_OSC_NOCLKOUT & _MCLRE_OFF

    and it still gives me the same error message. I change it in the 16f88.inc and looked in the p16f88.inc files. changed it in both 16f88.inc files .. still getting the error.

    The P16F88.inc is NOT to be edited.

    i OPENED it and there is nothing much to be edited concerning MCLR. Do not look anything like the tutorial link you posted earlier. So no I did not touch that file. Just put it there that I went through all the files, all the possiblities I know and it does not disable it.

    Hi, Ken

    Surprising ... I wrote this one for a '88 3 days ago ... ( I always use MPASM ...)

    Code:
    '******************************************************************************
    'Config
    #CONFIG
     __config _CONFIG1, _CP_OFF & _CCP1_RB3 & _DEBUG_OFF & _WRT_PROTECT_OFF & _CPD_OFF & _LVP_OFF & _BODEN_OFF & _MCLR_OFF & _PWRTE_ON & _WDT_ON & _INTRC_IO
     __config _CONFIG2, _IESO_OFF & _FCMEN_OFF
    #ENDCONFIG
    OSCCON  = %01101110    ' 4 Mhz Internal RC w/ I/Os

    Why insist on using 32 Bits when you're not even able to deal with the first 8 ones ??? ehhhhhh ...

    certainly the answer is " RTFM " or " RTFDataSheet " !!!
