Problem with Bank 3 in 16F946

[karlosguay]

Sorry.

1º. If i compile a program for 16F946, i have "Warning[219] c:\....\pbppic14.lib 892: Invalid RAM location specified"

2º. In the file "16F946.bas" of PicBasic directory there is "BANK3 $0190, $01EF".

3º. I read the datasheet of 16F946 and the start address of General Purpose Register in bank 3 is 1A0h and end address is 1EFh.


There is a problem in the start address of "16F946.bas"????

Best Regards, Karlos

Hi karlosguay,

That's good information! And it appears to be correct.

You might want to drop a message to meLabs to let them know, since they never actually come around here to check things out.

Could help out others in the future.

In the mean time, to fix the problem you're having, simply change the entry in
your 16F946.BAS file from;

BANK3 $0190, $01EF

to;

BANK3 $01A0, $01EF

And you should be good to go.

As Darell mentioned, I would inform MeLabs of the header file problem for this
device.
