Hi,

I am trying to use the sleep command (assembler way) with and without the LCD as shown in my code. Either way it does not seem to work because without the LCD I always get 22mA from my 12v batteries and with the LCd module about 85mA . Can someone tell me why the sleep command do not work.
I know I dont have any interrupt to get out of sleep, but first thing first
Thanks
ken
