Serout to serial servo

[azmax100]

Joe S,

What do you mean WDT.Can you please elaborate more.

If i use the Hserout do I have to use Include BS2defs.bas.

WDT. Watch Dog Timer. This is one of the config settings. Look at the PICs data sheet.
You do not need the BS2 stuff with SEROUT2 or HSEROUT. In fact, being you still have that in you code might be causing some of the trouble. Not sure though.

I strongly suggest everyone new to PICs read through all the posts in the FAQ section, really a lot of good things in there. WDT is what it it's name implies, it , like a watch dog, keeps an eye on your pic, and if allowed to time out, it resets it. After your code is perfect, turn it off if you like.

I wouldn't put it in. It basically just redefines a bunch of stuff so you can use basic stamp syntax, it also includes modedefs.bas automatically, which you do not need to use hardware serial port either. You do need it (modedefs.bas) if using serout or serout2 and want to use the aliased baud notations like N9600 . . . instead of mode 396 . . . As far as BS2defs goes, I am assuming a 2 to 7 dollar PIC beats spending what . . . ? . . . 25 for a stamp ? I think you will not go back, so it's better to put that chapter behind you, with fond memories (of the money you spent), and get up to speed with PIC syntax. IMHO
