Individual pic ID

Yeah but... how will you know the results?

Still possible yo use an ADC pin and a trim pot for less fancy solution.

Dip switches as well.

I was thinking, the transmitter sent out a standard identifier, then it's own ID, then the function. Then I could on first powerup make the transmitter look for standard identifier, then set itself for the first ID that it sees, maybe allow a couple of codes to be set - even just do the search on a jumper connect or something. - I'm inventing as I go here

Hi George,

Did you search this forum for Mister E's PIC Network. This should give you a good start on what it is you are looking at doing.

As Steve suggested first check if your programmer supports Serialization. If it does then it is already done.

If not, then why not put in a special place (program area or eeprom area) the byte you want every time you program the chip. Of course a different one every time!
