Steve,

Just one last thing before Monday.
Do I use the original .fcd file, the replacement one you sent, or the modified one with the brackets; or some combination???

Best regards,

Does the "inappropriate osccal value" mean that if the pic12f629 was "misprogrammed" in my earlier attempts with the original .fcd file and IncXCmd checked, that the chip cannot be programmed properly now?

Steve, what I am thinking is that when you programmed the chip you had made the ...

Thanks Steve and Mark,

I'll just create 2 arrays and move between them.

Best regards,

Steve/Ben,

In Flowcode, I am using a PIC16F688. (256 bytes RAM, 256 bytes EEPROM).
I have a few variables and one array variable. When compiling the hex program the total RAM used is only about 50% of the 256 bytes.
I just cannot get it to access the full RAM.
I have had to reduce the array size ...

Thanks greatly for the assistance.
I have ordered 3 new pic12f629 chips, but it looks like the problem may not be a faulty chip.
Unfortunately, this is now a bit beyond my technical capability- I'm a Flowcode convert!
But please, I hope you can solve the problem(s), and I will help as ...

Hi Steve,

Thanks for the effort- it's very frustrating here too.

I have double checked that I correctly put the "IncX" in properly.
Even when I restart Flowcode and check again, the setting for "IncX" is still unchecked.

When running PPP I get: Version 3.8.11.24
Firmware version = 7

I just ...

Hi Steve,

I had an idea.
I looked over the documentation for E-blocks Version 3 development board (Document code: HP488-30-3).
On page 14 there are pin out details for the different devices.
On page 16 at the top, there are 2 pictures- one for the 8 pin device and one for the 14 pin device.
It ...

Hi Steve,

Thanks for the idea.
I just tried "Use IncX Cmd" off- but unfortunately, no success.
Also tried it with all 3 different .fcd files. No success.
It did take slightly longer to compile, but we are only talking a couple of seconds.

I guess it's back to the drawing board.:(


Best regards ...

Hi Steve,

I tried:

Code:
OutputCmdOneBit="trisio = trisio & %i;\nif (%o)\n\tgpio = (gpio & %i) | %m;\nelse\n\tgpio = gpio & %i;\n"

and unfortunately it did not work.

I also tried it with the original fcd file and the second fcd file you sent the other day.
I then tried your suggestion of ...

Hi Steve,
I also tried a very simple Flowcode program-

Begin
Output to led (Port A1)
Delay 1 second
End

Still have the same problem. ie: Runs okay under simulation, compiles ok, but fails on transfer to pic12f629 chip.

Any ideas?

Best regards,

Michael

Steve,

Thanks for the file.
Unfortunately I still get the same error/fail messages. I have placed the new file in the correct folder, because when I go to Flowcode->Chip->Target, it shows both the new 12F629.fcd file and the older one (which I had renamed to 12F629old.fcd).
Any ideas? I am ...

Please help!

I have been trying to send my program to a PIC12F629. It runs okay in Flowcode 3 simulation, but when I try to transfer it to the chip in the 8/14 pin slot on the version 3 board, it fails with the message below.
(If I transfer the same program to a PIC16F648A in the 18 pin slot, it ...

Okay, I have my little PIC12F629 almost ready to run.
But in Flowcode 3, I seem to only be able to access the Interrupts for port B (RB0 INT and RB port change):(
There is only Port A on this little PIC and the Port B Interrupts won't access the PIC12F629.

Can someone help me as to how to setup ...

Thanks Ben,

That was fast and easy

Best regards,

Michael

Can someone help me with SLEEP? I am losing a lot of it over this problem.':cry:'

Is there a command in Flowcode 3 to put my PIC12F629 to SLEEP by software?
I would like to be able to put it to SLEEP at a few places in the code and was wondering how to do this. I cannot find anything in the Help ...
