    - Try External clock !!! ( internal Osc is "not so accurate" ...)

    - Place "Low trigger" just before "Pulsout"

    Why insist on using 32 Bits when you're not even able to deal with the first 8 ones ??? ehhhhhh ...

    IF there is the word "Problem" in your question ...
    certainly the answer is " RTFM " or " RTFDataSheet " !!!

    Re-read post #2 and post #4...
    Look at your program...
    Take a good look at PortA.0
    Compare PortA.0's function from the datasheet to what you are trying to do with it...

    Get back to us with the results...

    Default what do you mean

    what do you mean by check porta.0 , read post2 and 4 ????? do you mean that the porta.0 is analog and I shouldn't use it for digital signals input????

    anyway , I moved the echo signal to differents port.b's and port.a's and nothing changed.

    I tested few portB input pins with infrared detectors ( which worked fine) but when the echo input signal, is connected to the same portb that i just tested , and the trigger signal output (connected to portb output pins that i tested with LEDs) of my srf04 are connected , nothing is working

    can you tell me clearly what do you have in mind please???

    thank you so much. you are a star
    finally everything is working with internal clock and measurements well displayed on the lcd.

    wasn't that easy to understand the data sheet but because of all of you guys, with all your examples and suggestions , i managed to find the right settings.

    again thank you guys
    God bless you all

    Just curious...which bit fixed the problem?
    Invariably, it's usually that one little bit that fixes everything...

    Nope...I don't have your circuit running with your software running on your hardware programmed by your programmer.
    There are numerous differences between the 16F84 and the 'F88. I'm not going to spell them all out because they're already in the datasheets.
