TM1640 (16 digit display) with PicBAsic Pro, possible is? How?

It may make little difference but try removing the colons after the gosubs in the following lines:

 gosub BLINK_LED_START:
 gosub clear_char: 'Clear 7 seg displays & LEDs
 gosub display: 'Write Chars to 7 seg display

Hi Norm, I will change this your tips and return.

Hi Norm, I tried this new change but not worked.

Just out of curiousity, what does this line do in your code?

Define RESET_ORG 800h

[jefrem]

Hi, This "Define RESET_ORG 800h" line is used for Microchip USB bootloader.

Well, I've pointed this out before but the Define must be caps. If it's part of the bootloader that may be why it isn't loading. Which may be the issue.

I honestly think you need to take a step back and go for blinking a LED. A quick review of your posts only indicate nothing is working. If you're communicating properly with the PIC the LED will indicate that.

AvionicMaster1,
Can you give us some reference supporting your statement regarding the case sensitivity? I ask because I think you've got it wrong and I'll support that by quoting Darrel from another thread:

The word "define" is a PBP statement, and PBP is not case sensitive. So it doesn't matter what case DeFiNe is.
What follows "define" is passed on to the assembler, and MPASM IS case sensitive.

So in this case the line Define RESET_ORG 800h is perfectly valid since RESET_ORG is all upper case.

Again, it's NOT the word define that must be upper case, it is what follows the word define that must match the case of however it's being used elsewhere.
In PBP's case (no pun intended) all defines are upper case but if you use or write an assembly routine which has some constants you can set it may, or may not, be all upper case. It might be myParticularSetting. If you then would try to set that to 123 by doing DEFINE MYPARTICULARSETTING 123 it wouldn't work since the assembly code is looking for myParticularSetting.

Apart from that I'm afraid I don't have much to contribute to this thread....

/Henrik.

Hi, my project has a LED. I use TOGGLE command in MAIN route and not has problem, the LED blink normally. In other words, the communication PIC is worked.
