Re: CLEAR LCD PROBS
hi martin as always thanks for the reply, i had previously tried what you suggested but this didnt work and after much head scratching i realised the problem, the flowchart ive added is just a snippet of the whole design, im actually using 3 branches on the switch icon and each branch has the same p...

CLEAR LCD PROBS
hi all ive attached a very small part of a project im working on and im pleased with the results BUT ... when this particular part is run i cannot remove the last letter from the bottom of the display when used again ie the part that says "sec" moves to the right 1 digit when the count goes over 9 s...

Re: ADC VALUE ISSUES
hi martin, as always thanks for the reply, you were spot on this now works a treat, however i dont understand how the program runs correctly if the voltage macro is built on its own and then in my program acts the way it does ?? however your solution is brill, ive never seen this done before but its...

ADC VALUE ISSUES
Hi all ive added my flowchart and im having issues with the value of the adc regards what it shows on the display. ive got the variable DISPLAY[4] as a string therefore to my understanding i should only show the 4 segments of the selected display ie 2.04V but im getting for instance 2.043256, four e...

Re: Switch Headaches
hi chipfryer27
switch array ah never thought of this plus i did a flowchart similar to yours before i noticed yours lol, but these defo seem the way to go, think the switch situation is just about covered in all scenarios, but thanks for pointing me in the right way and thanks for the help

Re: Switch Headaches
Hi chipfryer thanks for the reply ive edited your program and alls well BUT ...... when using the switch icon ive developed the below program it works in simulation but my question is 1 - have i gone round the houses in my design could it be done simpler..... ALSO 2 - what is better to use in a prog...

Re: Switch Headaches
hi chipfryer27 thanks for the reply, i had done something similar to this in the past but found if you kept your finger on the button too long it would go straight to the 5 second delay and not wait for another press, as the variable select is initially high from the first press, it needs to wait af...

hi all, using a switch icon and masking i want to press my input button and go to the selected leg this isnt a problem but once in this leg i want the program to halt and wait for the same switch to be pressed again before it continues on to the main loop the one with the 5 second delay, ive managed...

hi all,
i apologise if this is in the wrong section but ive just bought a new laptop and want to reinstall flowcode 7 im a licenced user, ive gone to the internal matrix page and tried to download but nothing happens, am i doing some thing wrong or need to contact admin

Re: Ads 1115 16bit adc module
Hi QMESAR
Thanks for the reply i take it by using spl this will mean using more pins on the controller over the 2 used on I2C also is there anything already for the 1115 ?

Hi all,
Has anyone used the 16 bit ads 1115 adc module with a pic micro ?? If so could you show how you used it within flowcode please, thanks in advance

Re: voltage divider values
Hi leigh This is for a low battery indicator i was using 2 4.7k resistors and wondered on their size this is purely a hobby thing and not industrial, my readings are 0.04v out compared to a fluke DMM ie fluke reads 6.88v my indicator 6.84v so im happy with accuracy although it could always be better...

Re: voltage divider values
Hi all Just a quick thought leighm mentioned the pic requires 250uA of sampling current therefore if i use a resistor divider of 2 68k resistors this would provide 297uA at the tap point plus if the pins impedance is 2K then wouldnt 68k in parallel with this be roughly 1.94k therefore nearly matchin...

Re: voltage divider values
hi QMESAR, thanks for the reply so if i understand right i will require a non - inverting op-amp circuit whose output impedance should be around 2K to match that of the analogue pins 2K,with the op amps input impedance 1 MOhm plus ?? and this would be dependant on feedback resistors used with the op...

voltage divider values
hi all, when using a pic micros analogue input to read a voltage which is 9 volts, i want to use 2 values the same so the input sees 4.5 volts for a 9 volt value,my question is would it be better to use 2 large value resistors ie 470k so the current draw is low on the supply or something like 2 4.7k...

Re: ADC ISSUES
hi all
ive set up the FVRCON register as well as ADCON1 to try and get this working, ive trolled through the data sheet to try to get this right but no joy, can anyone point me in the right direction on how to set the FVR function up correctly please

Re: ADC ISSUES
Hi kersing
Thanks for the reply, i just tried using the internal reference voltage and set the FVRCON as well as changing the pots property to FVR rather than VDD but no joy ive either set it wrong or this is not suitable ??
