Re: GPS Project: PIC18F26K22 or PIC18F46K22
I believe that any input pin must be pulled either up or down depends on the use. If there is a switch normally most of the people, pull up a resistor at the input pin, and the switch goes to ground.
Now for the rest of the pins personally if the pins are output and digital, i leave them floating, but i use the command:
Just read Ioannis previous post. It is really useful info. Thanks a lot.Code:PORTx = low

Re: GPS Project: PIC18F26K22 or PIC18F46K22
Ok lets move forward to the project.
I have received the PIC18F26K22, and connected the ulcd and the Gps module at the EUSARTs.
I tried to configure each EUSART with a different baudrate but didnt work. Anyway i did the baudrate the same for both of the ports and uLCd and GPS worked fine.
Code:'*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| '* | --------------------- | | '*----------------------- | EUART 1 Configuration | --------------------------| '* | --------------------- | | '*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| DEFINE HSER_RCSTA 90h ' Enable serial port & continuous receive DEFINE HSER_TXSTA 24h ' Enable transmit, BRGH = 1 DEFINE HSER_CLROERR 1 ' Clear overflow automatically DEFINE HSER_SPBRG 160 ' 38400 Baud @ 64MHz, -0,08% SPBRGH = 1 BAUDCON.3 = 1 ' Enable 16 bit baudrate generator '*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| '* | --------------------- | | '*----------------------- | EUART 2 Configuration | --------------------------| '* | --------------------- | | '*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| DEFINE HSER2_RCSTA 90h ' Enable serial port & continuous receive DEFINE HSER2_TXSTA 24h ' Enable transmit, BRGH = 1 DEFINE HSER2_CLROERR 1 ' Clear overflow automatically DEFINE HSER2_SPBRG 160 ' 38400 Baud @ 64MHz, -0,08% SPBRGH2 = 1 BAUDCON2.3 = 1 ' Enable 16 bit baudrate generator '*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| '*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Then on the main program, i have placed the code to get the information from the GPS and display them to uLcd.
Some coding is still not good, but at the moment i need to solve the problem that is mentioned at the end of this message. So please ignore any minor issues at them moment.
As you see in the main code there is a line that checking if there is no FIX, so will jump to a label notfix:Code:'--------------------------------------------------------------------------------| ' |

See next the notfix label:Code:'---------------------------------------------------------------------------------/ ' Here if the GPS module havent been fixed to any satellite will jump to notfix / '-------------------------------------------------------------------------------/ if fix = "V" then notfix
As i do not use any interrupt at the moment, any instruction is waiting to be completed until the next one will continue.
So at this code, when i POWERUP the circuit, until the GPS gets the signal, jumps at the notfix.
QUESTION:Code:notfix: ' Still looking for fixed signal hh = hh + 3 hh = hh//24 HSEROUT2 [$73,$00,$03,$11,$6D,$BF," Waiting for GPS",$00] Hserin2 timeout,lostcable,[wait(6)] HSEROUT2 [$73,$00,$07,$00,$07,$ff,rep "." \dots,$00] Hserin2 timeout,lostcable,[wait(6)] HSEROUT2 [$73,$07,$09,$10,$6D,$BF,"SATs :",dec2 satno,$00] Hserin2 timeout,lostcable,[wait(6)] HSEROUT2 [$73,$04,$07,$12,$F8,$00,"NOT FIXED",$00] Hserin2 timeout,lostcable,[wait(6)] HSEROUT2 [$73,$06,$0D,$11,$6D,$BF,fix," ",mode2d3d,"D",$00] Hserin2 timeout,lostcable,[wait(6)] HSEROUT2 [$73,$03,$06,$10,$ff,$E0," Time:",dec2 hh," :",dec2 mm," :",dec2 ss,$00] Hserin2 timeout,lostcable,[wait(6)] pause 3000 HSEROUT2 [$45] ' clears the LCD Hserin2 timeout,lostcable,[wait(6)] goto main 'returns to main
Now, i need to clear at the end of the notfix the display, because if there is a FIX from the GPS, will go back to main, and i need to see the new data and not a mixed from notfix and main. Is there any way to clear the LCD before i go back to main without place the clear lcd command inside the main or the notfix label? ? Could you please help me and give me some advice?
Still i havent design any circuit as i develop the test board some things are changing.
I post pictures of the test board, and i would try to explain what i have done.

Re: GPS Project: PIC18F26K22 or PIC18F46K22
A Test with an not very good ATTEN oscilloscope.
main:
high LED
pause 10
low LED
pause 100
goto main
With an Auto-trigger i get 9.11 Hz
If i make the following change
main:
high LED
pause 10
low LED
pause 50
goto main
i get a frequency of: 16.72 Hz.
As far as i have discussed with Ioannis, it should be ok, and the setting for 64Mhz is activated up and running.

Re: GPS Project: PIC18F26K22 or PIC18F46K22
Obviously your picture shows the first piece of code. You Oscilloscope is set for 50ms/div, so your period seems to measure about 110ms.
Your program is making high for 10ms and another 100ms low which makes for a 110ms plus any PIC delays and inaccuracies, very much close to 120ms.
Good to go!

Re: GPS Project: PIC18F26K22 or PIC18F46K22
Dear all,
i have a question it maybe answered in lots of different threads.
http://www.picbasic.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=10389
http://www.picbasic.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=10265
QUESTION: Can i have different baudrates on the 2 EUARTs? How could i change baudrate during start up in one of the EUART port?
Have in mind that i use both of the EUARTs. One for the Display and one for the GPS.
The GPS has a firmware with the following configuration:
Baudrate: 9600 default
Refresh rate: 1hz
On the code i have configured the EUART for 38400, because i set the GPS externally with serial terminal at 38400. But GPS keeps the configs only if a backup battery is presented.
So i came up with this problem.
I need to send the following command first to SET the BAURATE at 38400, but with the EUART at 9600, because at that stage the GPS communicate only at 9600.
Then GPS as i tested i connected successfully, at 38400, but the following command cannot be sent before i change on the fly the EUART at 38400.Code:HSEROUT2 ["$PMTK251,38400*27",13,10] ' 38400 boundrate, check MTK manual configuration.
From the links above, i checked the way you are setting the new baudrate, and tried to do it as well but didnt really worked.Code:HSEROUT2 ["$PMTK220,100*2F",13,10] ' 100(millisecond)=0.1(sec)-->1/0.1= 10Hz

Re: GPS Project: PIC18F26K22 or PIC18F46K22
Yes, you can have different baudrate(s) on different UARTs and yes you can change it at any time you want. But, as the posts in the other thread says, to change it you can't use PBPs DEFINE HSER_BAUD because that's a compile time directive and not a runtime command.
If you want to set or change the baudrate at runtime you need to set or change the registers manually. BAUDCON, SPBRG, SPBRGH most of the time. And remember that the register names are different for the second UART - BAUDCON2, SPBRG2 etc.
Without seeing your code we can't say why what you did didn't work.
