Well it was the parallel port.
It works fine on my PC.
Guess I'll have to use the PC form now on.

Re: Dev Board Ver 2 not being recognised
I think you may be right about the parallel port, as I know when ever I used this on my PC it worked straight away.
I will test it on my PC and see.

Re: Dev Board Ver 2 not being recognised
My new PSU can go from 15V up to 24V. The PIC I have in the board now is a brand new one, I took out the other new one last night, still getting the same thing. If the Parallel port is the important part, what settings should I be looking at in windows/BIOS to make sure the port is set up correctly?...

Re: Dev Board Ver 2 not being recognised
The PSU was faulty, so got a new one, but now am getting a different message: When it goes to erase the PIC, it seems to retry 10 times and then fails. The autodetect gives the error of "PICmicronot found from ID 0x0040. Please Enter the chip name" And if I try to load a program to the chi...

Re: Dev Board Ver 2 not being recognised
The current PIC is a brand new one, PIC18F2550.
The old one and the new one give the same symptoms.
I'll try reinstalling the PPP and see how that goes.

Re: Dev Board Ver 2 not being recognised
The PSU is a 12V. When I use the Auto Detect, I get "LPT cable is not connected or board has no power, continue?". And then "Could not ID the oinboard Chip".
I am using PPP ver 3.8.11.24
the attached image is of what I see when I plug the board in.

Dev Board Ver 2 not being recognised
HI, I got the Dev Board 2 and used it in the past, but hadn't used it for about the last 6 months. I recently put in tried it with the PIC that comes with it, and with an 18F2550, but I keep getting the same error message from PPP that the board is not powered or the parallel cable is not connected....

Anyone use a 3rd Party serial RS232 to Bluetooth adapter?
I am looking to add a bluetooth adapter to my serial port on my PIC, and wanted to know if anyone had used a non-Eblocks serial to Bluetooth adapter in their PIC project?
I just want to see how hard it is to get one going vs. buying the E-blocks hardware and using that.

A good Book to teach programming C for PIC's?
I am using Flowcode, and need to use a littel C code to manipulate some of the data, but cannot find good book to learn from.
Does anyone have any suggestion?
Even just a reference guide for functions/libraries would good.

How does FLowCode send an Int via RS232?
I am sampling the ADC into an Int, and need to send this over RS232 to a PC.
The RS232 Macro has SendRS232Char which looks to take a byte. Will it send an Int?
How will the data be seen on the other side?

Whats best for 2-way communication over Serial
I want to have a PIC talking to a PC over a serial port sending and receiving info.
Can I use SPI for this or do I need UART or something else?
