I need to use two PWM output in PIC18F45K80 at the same time. In the datasheet it seems that I can use Timer 2 or Timer4 as PWM timer. So I can make it. But Flowcode only allows Timer 2. I can’t use the second pwm output. Is this normal or can I fix it?

Hello,

Please can you try this updated definition file and see how you get on.

Simply copy to your "Flowcode 6/FCD/PIC" folder and then restart Flowcode.

Dear Benj,
Thank you for your fast answer. Now it is allowing to select the other timers to use for PWM. But now when I try to compile, it is showing an error as "Illegal redefinition of symbol: MX_PWM_PERIOD". It doesn't allow me to use it.

Hello Benj, how are you? I'm waiting for this issue. Would you please tell me if you see this message or not?

Hi,
Could you post your Flowcode project file (*.fcfx)
And just confirm that you are using Flowcode v6?
Thanks

Yes, we are using Flowcode v6. I attached the project file. There are two PWM output in this project.

Thanks for the file.
It compiles OK for me.
Attached is latest PWM component, perhaps you have an older one, just drop this into your Flowcode 6 installation components directory,
and re-start Flowcode.

Nothing changed. Flowcode v6 is giving the same error. Also, I checked Flowcode 6 version.

"Your current version is: 6.1.4
Your version of Flowcode6 is up to date."

Did you replace the component? Or move the old one to another directory?
If you just rename the old one it could still be used by Flowcode.

Could you send your LCD Controller.c file?

After your message I totally removed the file and it is doing the same thing.

Ah, thanks, now I see the issue, please replace attached component ...

Hi Benj. It is working. Thank you for your help.

I assume you meant to be thanking Leigh

Thanks though I'm happy to take the credit
