Henrik, agreed about the need for the extra pins. I will be switching to the 16F series for sure I've already thought of the extra pins I will need stop/start, Jog, , manual speed, lcd, direction, sensors, etc... I just quickly looked on microchip part picker and I am pretty sure I had the 12F but I didn't see any on their list that had HPWM in the 16F series that I had and I want to get started and have things worked out. Going to order some 16F's now which will take about a week to get here, I don't want to wait to see it work. I have a good bit of time to test things before I would actually put my conveyer to use I still need to work on the frame and belt mechanism itself. The framing material will be here in about a week I will keep this thread going as I progress through adding different functions to the PIC
Thanks
David
