LCD BARgraphs

[mister_e]

No i didn't forget

let's see first example in this thread

; Initialize your hardware and LCD first.

DEFINE ADC_BITS 8               ' Number of bits in ADCIN result
ADCON1.7 = 1                    ' Right Justify AD result

INCLUDE "LCDbar_INC.bas"        ' Include the BARgraph routines

Value  VAR  WORD                ' Must be a WORD even though AD is 8bit

LCDOUT $FE, 1  ' Clear Screen

Loop1:
    ADCIN  0, Value
    LCDOUT $FE,2,"Value = ",DEC Value,"   "
    ; syntax- BARgraph   Value, Row, Col, Width, Range, Style
    @         BARgraph  _Value,   2,   0,    16,   255,  lines
GOTO Loop1

You just need to monitor Value variable with some IF-THEN statements after ADCIN line

IF Value>200 then 
        LCDOUT $FE,2,"VALUE>200       "
        endif

Thanks
I think I'm starting to get parts of it I'll try tomorrow properly when my head isn't so tired
however i do have one question, how do you tell the pic what port the input is on?
ie if the pot was connected to portA.0 how would you tell the pic to measure and display the value of that port?
Hope I've said that clearly enough, sometimes I'm better about thinking about things than trying to explain what I mean

ADCIN 0, Value

check the datasheet, PORTA.0 is AN0

I will use it to cell voltage indicator project
