WTF is going on with you Trent? If you have any anger... buy yourself a dog, find friends, consult a psychologist, drop me PM or e-mail directly!

It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
There's no problem, only learning opportunities.
Well, I'm about to give up on this circuit - it's hard to see any future in it. Instead, I've just ordered one of these JaF Microstep modules. http://www.jafmotion.co.uk/motordrives.htm .
Let's see if it does what it say on the tin....
Trent, looks to me like mister-e provides a link on his website to a US distributer of PBP. I don't think he sells it himself.

i had a link yesterday on my signature... just to calm down Mr Jackson's PMS i've removed it.

OK - did I miss something here.. How the hell did this topic get from discussing telescope drives to discussing the merrits of death row ???
I gather the original poster gave up in the end and purchased a commercial driver. Maybe because the topic went way off topic, maybe as purchasing a ready made alternative to developing his own was the easy option?
Hi, Malc
I Think yes ...
To me, Our Friend Trent smokes too much illegals ...
like in the 60's when writers ( Françoise Sagan i.e. ) were smoking mushrooms to try to get some inspiration ...
but do not worry ... He doesn't bite ...
Or , may be , he tried himself a new electronic version of his Electric Chair ( see previous posts )...
Hope he won't try a new "Trentorized" version of the machine used in the film " FLY" ( w . Jeff Goldblum )
...

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 " !!!

No, I'm actually just waiting here for the off-topic discussion to die down. I went and purchased a commercial microstepping chip to use instead of the L293D, but I still expect to drive it using a PIC. In fact, I have some more problems now, because I thought PIC assembler was fairly simple, and it turns out not to be!
I am confused by the memory allocation of variables. As far as I can see, a PIC .ASM file comprises a set of memory declarations followed by some commands. Variables are defined by naming them and giving their locations, thus:
VAR1 EQU H'10' ;defines the location H10 as VAR1
VAR2 EQU H'22' ;defines the location H22 as VAR2
and then you can load them:
MOVLW D'5'
MOVWF VAR1 ;puts 5 in VAR1 (location H10)
.
.
MOVLW VAR1 ;puts 5 back in the W Register
and generally play with them. But when I try to alter the program I have, it complains that some of the variables I create are in 'Restricted Memory'. I can't find any way to work out what is legal memory and what isn't. I have tried putting variable in random places until the error goes away, and then I hit the next problem, which seems to be that other processes also write to the memory locations I am using, so every so often my counts jump up by 20 or so. There are several simple tutorials on the web for blinking LEDs, but none seem to cover this sort of problem...
You're absolutely right mister_e, I shouldn't be taking my frustrations out on you, I do apologize. You must understand that I have a lot on my plate at the moment -- the Australian secret service is busting my balls for me to come up with an electronic device to help catch pedophiles. My life depends on this project, they're pushing me real hard for this.
Perhaps you might be able to help me, mister_e -- got any ideas on how to achieve something like this?
Don't need to catch them... just kill them... a camera and a gun... that's all you need.
Yes i'm a monster.

Hi T.Jackson. Why i seeing, your psychology is equal to Ricky Ponting ?

If you do not believe in MAGIC, Consider how currency has value simply by printing it, and is then traded for real assets.

Gold is the money of kings, silver is the money of gentlemen, barter is the money of peasants - but debt is the money of slaves

There simply is no "Happy Spam" If you do it you will disappear from this forum.
