18f4550

[Darrel Taylor]

Nikos,

If you haven't already, it's best to comment out the default oscillator settings in the 18F4550.inc file in the PBP folder, I'm sure you've done that before with other PIC's ...

Then you can set the options in your main program.
Here's a possibility for blinking an LED on PORTA.1 with a 4550 using the Internal Oscillator @4Mhz and your original code ...

'18F4550 with Int OSC Blinky

@   __CONFIG   _CONFIG1H,  _FOSC_INTOSC_XT_1H

DEFINE OSC 4         ; CPU runs @ 4 Mhz
OSCCON = %01100010   ; 4 Mhz Internal Oscillator

;DEFINE OSC 8         ; CPU runs @ 8 Mhz
;OSCCON = %01110010   ; 8 Mhz Internal Oscillator

ADCON1 = $0F         ; Disable Analog inputs

loop:
    High PORTA.1 'Turn on LED
    Pause 500 ' Delay for .5 seconds
    Low PORTA.1 'Turn off LED
    Pause 500 ' Delay for .5 seconds
Goto loop ' Go back to loop and blink LED forever

End

Keep in mind that the internal oscillator can't drive the USB module. But you can add a crystal to drive the USB and still run the CPU on Internal. Your choice.

Thanks to every one that want to help and share with us a piece of his
(or her) experience.

According to Darrel and his piece of his program, I have a problem.
I used to use Micrcode studio Plus for 16f628.
Now with the 18f4550 I need the MPLAB.So, I download the latest version of it and set it up to me laptop.
I did what the microEngineering Labs says about the :
--The PICBASIC™ and PICBASIC PRO™ Compilers can now be used with Microchip's MPLAB®!--
http://www.melabs.com/support/mplab.htm

After all that I try to compile the 18F4550 with Int OSC Blinky that Darrel post and I get two errors Error[118] look at the attached photo

Please advice
Nikos

I did the following but nothing...
Please H E L P ME.I DO NOT UNDERSTAND!!!!


Why I have to change thE INC file?Why I never did it with 16f628?
We are talking for the INC file in the pbp folder?

Oops, my fault. I should have been more complete with my descriptions.

The .INC file should look like this. The 2 red lines are commented out.
