I moved the delay command below the osccon command and that corrected it. (fast boots now)

Thanks Ben you saved the day again.

My pic 12f1840 has a delay of 17 seconds on startup I can't figure out why this is happening When it runs everything is running correctly. Its like the old days waiting for the tubes to warm up. :shock: I hope Microchip is not going back to tube technology. :lol: ------------------------------------...

I did a work around by reversing all the bits on paper and sending them out like that.

Thanks Steve,

You guys are the best in the business. If flow code could do a shift left or shift right with out loosing the bits that would be a killer feature.

I don't know how I got myself into a bus data project that runs on nibbles I should have thought twice before I even started.

I had a number like 0x0fff shifted them 12 places to the right and it comes back as zeros when shifted back one at a time Is there a way to not lose the data
shifting back.

My Marconi 2955b says 5 volts on the out pin and 1.25 volts on the led going through a 100 ohm resistor

Time to do some math from here.

I just used a loop inside a loop to get it done in the end.

Yes I was monitoring the flow from my power supply to the PIC it wasn't anything alarming.

It doesn't appear to draw as much at 38 khz

My amp meter doesnt register any draw

I am trying to drive an IR led It seems to get any brightness at all I have to run it straight off the output pin (no resistor) Is there a chance my pic chip will fry in hell for that. running at 38khz it doesnt register any current on my amp meter.

I did a loop bigger than 256 it did not warn me It will maf function Not a big deal But something should have poped up warning me.

It seems to loop forever when that is done.

This is what I had to do for my program to work.
It will not send char 00h when its inside the quotes.

That explains it then just the last charter was missing when I cut and pasted directly from my hex editor file I will have to add a random charter at the end to
get where I want to be for now.

I built this code but the data stops short at the end no matter which way I go. maybe I am doing something wrong or its a bug I do not know.

I had to use pickit3.exe to program but that is good by me also.

Its all good I revisited my old program and it worked 100% 40.000khz out

Hopefully it will age like a fine wine like v5 did.

Yes I was trying to get to transmit anything just to see it running I thought it would transmit the serout value
A sample code for the UART would be a big help (I am just lost getting started with the UART) Just need a kick start here.

I always use the internal clock never external with only a 8 pin device

Just tring to get started with the rs232 yes the one on the chip not the software one

I am tring to get my 12f1840 uart running it works when in simulation mode but won't when programming Its most likely something stupid I am doing.

This pickit 3 is sucking my will to live.

I hope everyone is not jumping ship I just blew my life savings on V6

It is still not working it goes from pro to home version every time
