Read the newbee threads, 16F877A no go.

Going through the forum posts, I encountered the same problem as in Post#21 above.

Here is the simple code trying to write to DS1307.

Start:

I2CREAD PORTA.3,PORTA.2,$D0,0,[0,0,0,0,0,0,0]

GOTO Start


END

I get;
ERROR Line 16: Expected '['. (Untitled8.pbp)
ERROR Line 16: Expected ']'. (Untitled8.pbp)

No variable or alias; just direct values...

What is the cause of this issue?
me?


Thanks.

Aw c'mon Sayzer, that's a no-brainer...

Too much wine, women and song this festive period...

You're trying to READ from a device, and then attempting to store that data into a series of CONSTANTS??? Maybe that's where CONSTANTinople comes from...

I prescribe a large mug of Turkish coffee and a code revision to something like...

	dA var BYTE
	dB var BYTE
	dC var BYTE
	dD var BYTE
	dE var BYTE
	dF var BYTE
	dG var BYTE
	
Start:

	I2CREAD PORTA.3,PORTA.2,$D0,0,[dA,dB,dC,dD,dE,dF,dG]

	GOTO Start

	END

Alternativelty swap IC2READ with I2CWRITE if you are really intending to WRITE.

Happy Holidays everyone!

What can I say?

I wanna cry :'(
