saving RCREG to word

[Macgman2000]

Darrel,

thanks for confirming the ~ 3bytes buffer. I guess I need to change the part of the code that is in main and move it to the interrupt.

Please tell me if this is possible or if I completely missed it. I want to create a 4 word buffer, each word holds a manchester encoded servo position. Every interrupt will pack a byte into the high portion of the word and the next interrupt packs the lower byte of the word. It does this for the remaining 3 words. In main, the code looks at the byte number index and determines which servo to update out of the 4 servos.

The idea is to keep the bytes streaming in up to date even when in the pauseus pulse output portion of the code.

Can I in the inline assembly specify moving an 8bit register into the "high" or "low" byte of a variable? Like movf servo1.L, RCREG and movf servo1.H,RCREG ?

Thanks!

No problem,

Let's say you have a WORD variable in BANK0 ... (It should be in BANK0).

TempWord VAR WORD BANK0

in ASM, the LowByte comes first, so that's at the address of the variable itself.
    movwf     _TempWord

The HighByte is 1 address more
    movwf     _TempWord + 1
