arrays LEDs Switches

[ilteris]

Hello Folks,

I am trying to control these tiny LEDs with my switches, right now 8 for 8 but it is going to be 25 for 25 in the end so this is just a proto to figure out whats going on. MY code is working in a sense, I just happen to get high all of my LEDs like I wanted and made some low according to me, but when I try to connect them to my switches which are lying on the PORTB, I just could control the PINO of the PORTB, I am pasting my code below, and looking for your answers.

Thanks in advance

   define OSC 4
   
   start:
   TRISC = 0
   TRISB = 1
   PORTC = 255
   PORTB = 255
   i var BYTE 
   j var BYTE
   myByte var BYTE
   delayTime var Byte
   mySwitch var  byte
   delayTime = 100
   pause delayTime
       
   main:
  
  for j=0 to 7 
  if PORTB.0(j) = 1 then
       mybyte.0(j) = 0
         PORTC = myByte
  
   else

   mybyte.0(j) = 1
      PORTC = myByte
  endif
        next
        
        
     for i=0 to 7 
        if i = 4 then
   myByte.0(i) = 0
          PORTC = myByte
   else
   
   myByte.0(i) = 1
   PORTC = myByte
     endif
   next   
   goto main

You are only setting Bit 0 of PortB to input... Try this...

	TRISB=%11111111
	TRISC=%00000000
	Option_Reg.7=0

	Mybyte var Byte

Loop:
	MyByte=PortB
	PortC=Mybyte
	Pause 100
	Goto Loop

	End

hello Melanie,

Thanks for the quick feedback although I am not sure I understood it correctly, I try adding this snippet to my with no dice, also open a new file and tried in that too but it is still no go, can you elaborate it quite a bit, also I couldnt find any documents on option_reg, can you tell me what is it?

Thank you so much for your patience.
