Delay Problem,Byte,Word

[Pesticida]

Hi,

Yes I understand what you mean,but my problem ist that i want to have sometimes values that < as 255 is,for Example 1 Millisecond for My Stepping Motor.

The Visual Basic Software Work very good,all what I send I receive with my Pic,My only Problem ist that wehn I send this Chr(1) to my Word variable Delay ,dont' Work,wehn I send Chr(1) And I use the Pic Code: Delay1 = (DataIn[3] * 256) + DataIn[4] this work but I need 1 Millisecond for my Stepping Motor.

Thanks.

OK, so do a simple test, skip the HSERIN stuff and load the value in the array manually at the top of your code, then redo your tests.

Also... there's a little mistake here

hserin 10000,MainStart,[WAIT("!"),STR Datain\13]

Should be

hserin 10000,MainStart,[WAIT("!"),STR Datain\12]

I think it's on the VB side... just drop the Mscomm1.Output line

Hi,

This is my Visual Basic Communication Code:

MSComm1.Output = "!" & Chr(Val(CmbAdresse.Text)) & Chr(0) & Chr(Val(TxtLoop.Text)) & Chr(Val(TxtDelayOn1.Text)) _
& Chr(Val(TxtDelayOn2.Text)) & Chr(Val(TxtKanal1.Text)) & Chr(Val(TxtKanal2.Text)) & Chr(Val(TxtKanal3.Text)) _
& Chr(Val(TxtKanal4.Text)) & Chr(Val(TxtKanal5.Text)) & Chr(Val(TxtKanal6.Text)) & Chr(13) & Chr(10)
Sleep 30

I need for the moment just Byte CmbAdresse.Text,Byte TxtLoop.Text,Byte TxtDelayOn1.Text,Byte TxtDelayOn2.Text.
I have 13 Bytes !

Ok I did what You told me,now I wrote direct too Delay1 = 1.

But dont work,maybe I can not use a Word variable with Pause when this Values less then 256 is.

I can not find the Answer.

EDIT: forgive me i was wrong... i'll be back!!!

Ok,
but what I dont understand is why when I write Direct in Picbasic Pro:
Delay1 = 1

.......

High PortC.0
High PortC.1
low PortC.2
low PortC.3

Pause Delay1

this dont work,but when i write Pause 1 or when :
Delay1 var byte
Delay1 = 1

.......

High PortC.0
High PortC.1
low PortC.2
low PortC.3

Pause Delay1
This work.

Wich PBP version?

Hi,
Pic 16F870 and PBP 2.46.

Maybe is this a Compiler Bug for the Pause Command.
