Config problem PIC16F886

[Ruben Pena]

Hi Bosse:
If you are using the port A as digital, you will need to disable too the
comparators.
CM1CON0 = 0
CM2CON0 = 0

Thank you very much Darrel and Ruben,

I use PM assembler. Have decided to use a ceramic resonator (20 MHz)

Wants ALL DIGITAL if possible.

Will try your configuration recommendations

Thanks again

Hi,

Now I have done something ?????

Get the error: Error 16F886.INC 15 : [201] ''' expected

Have changed the INC file, but changed it back to original again, so now when I try to compile get this error.

Use PM and PicBasic Pro with MicroCode Studio Pro.

Please is there anybody how can help me solve the problem

Hi Bosse,
Can you post your .inc file, at least the area where you been pokin' around ? Also post the first say 8 - 10 lines of the code you are trying to get to work?

Hi Joe,

First I tries to get Config O.K. so have only a small program for testing config words. Wants ALL digital. Working with a project with MAXIMS iButton chips, works perfect with 16F88.

Think the INC file is O.K - But can not understand why it stops working????

'@ DEVICE PIC16F886, INTOSCIO, WDT_ON,MCLR_OFF,LVP_OFF,PROTECT_OFF,BOD_OFF,CPD_OF F,IESO_OFF,FCMEN_OFF,PWRT_ON

'DEFINE OSC 8

OSCCON = %01110001 ' Internal 8 mhz Osc
ANSEL = 0 ' All Digital
ANSELH = 0
'ADCON1 = $0F
'ADCON0 = 0
TRISC = 0

RUN:
PORTC.0 = 1
pause 1000
PORTC.0 = 0
PAUSE 1000
goto RUN
END

Do you recomend to use MPASM assembler? Have now tried more than 2 weeks with this problem.
PORTA is reserved for furure use - PORTA.1 = Input
PORTB %??001111 - RB6 and RB7connected to progsocket for PicKit2.
PORTC %11100100 - RC3 = SCK - RC4 = SDA 24LC256

Would be very great ful for all help and advices

Thanks in advance

Hi Joe,

Forget to tell you the Warning from PicKit2.

Warning: Some configuration words not in hex file.
Ensure default values above right are acceptable.

Configuration 2FF9 0700

What it boils down to....

Method one:
Comment out the config settings in the inc file, put the actual config settings in your source code prefixed by either an @ or inside an ASM block. Use this method if you frequently change this setting or that setting a lot.

Method two:
Comment out the original config settings in the inc file, add in your own config settings to that same inc file in the same place. I use this method since I almost always use the PICs in the same way (i.e. HS_PLL for the 18F, MCLR on, and so on and so on)

Method three (and others)...
Lots of different methods for doing this sort of thing. The 2 above are the 2 that I use.

Check the particular PICs .INC file in the MPASM directory for your particular PICs various options...

Hi Skimask,

Thank you !

Now it starts working, have changed the config in the 16F886.INC file and moved the configuration over to the real program. But still have the warning from PicKit2.

Have to work on and make some small changes and see if the warnings will go away.

I'm not proffessional, but have learned very much from this forum and are very greatful for all your help.

Thank you ALL
