ASM
T1PS = 1 ; start with 1:1 postscaler
TimerConst = ((OSC*1000000)/4/100) ; how many timer ticks will it take
while TimerConst > 65400 ; if it's more than the timer can count
T1PS = T1PS * 2 ; double the postscaler
TimerConst = TimerConst / 2 ; halve the count
endw
TimerConst = 65536 - TimerConst + 8 ; final reload value
; ---------------------------- DEBUG SCALER --------------------------------
DebugT1PS = T1PS
DebugTC = TimerConst
; xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
...
Before Main of my program I added:
Code:
DebugT1PS CON EXT
DebugTC CON EXT
Right now I'm wiring up a LCD to display the 2 variables.
Am I on the right track to look at them?
I've never tried to display something from inside Darryl's includes before. My plan was to copy them into 2 words and then displaying the lower and upper bytes on the LCD.
