In Flowcode - include the Timer component - and then can get milliseconds (etc) from when it is started.

Just using the UART decoder at present. Just checking if sigrok will do the trick...

Re: DMX master has issues
While I was typing - Iain popped in with a test of the DMX component too. I don't have a way to test if it is a valid DMX signal - how doing?

Re: DMX master has issues
Whilst waiting for a 16F18877 to arrive in the post - I tried a different MCU. So with a PIC16F887 (which is rather a lower specced beast) - I got a simple DMX output running (I think) Here outputting 24 channels (set to 0..23) My logic analyser reads the 'start' pulse as 0. I'm using '0' as the con...

Re: Compilation size descrepancy between using Flowcode 9 and 10
The CAL (included code (Chip Abstraction Layer?)) and components might differ somewhat between the two versions. Although in increase in total program size seems quite a lot? 96% doesn't allow much leeway ! By looking at code using each of components you are using in isolation - it might be possible...

Re: DMX master has issues
:-( How did you do the 'heartbeat' pulse - with an interrupt or in the main loop. If the UART isn't quite initialised correctly then the wait for transmission to finish - may never return. I did get output with the FC component - but that was with a PIC32 and checking the output on the oscilloscope ...

Re: Suggestions for new microcontroller support
I suggest the esp32_p4! I've just received one of these bad boys.. Flowcode up and running in a matter of minutes - idf.py set-target esp32p4 Then recompile and 'Hello world' is go.... Pushing that 360MHz CPU to its limits! It has quite a few 'extras' - dedicated display and camera port (Raspberry P...

Re: DMX master has issues
Sadly, and the most likely outcome for a first attempt
- still one step forward.... I didn't add any OSCON settings - though seemed to be set at 32MHz internal oscillator - so assumed it didn't need this. Good to check though - no clock, nothing happens....

Re: DMX master has issues
I don't have the same chip to test on - but I pulled an example from the web and coerced it into Flowcode. Perhaps you could try this - I've set it to out on Pin C0 (and for speed it is hardcoded to this - sorry) If it outputs anything - we could perhaps look at changing this if needed! I've set it ...
