I have a programmer that is compatible with MPLAB, an Olimex PIC-MCP-USB. How do I make it work with flow code? I also have MPLAB on the computer I am using.

Ben I have gotten the PWM to work, I also had my students breadboard the L293 and that work great. I worte a program that was to make the motor move in the clockwise direction and if a switch was press then the motors would stop. I did this in marcos. I trun on two outputs to go forward in the macro...

I have tried to down load the motor control zip file and my computer gives me and error, that the file is bad or corrupted.

Just wanted to let you know

Thanks for the input. Should I be able to see this output of CCPx as a waveform on a scope? Also when I run a sim should the pins that match the CCPx light up a LED on the screen?

Ok, I have read a lot of post, seached the internet and even read a book, and I still am not sure how to set flowcode to controls motors. I really do not know which outputs go to what on the motors or if the pwm have any output or what. I guess I need some on the basic understanding of the pwm works...

Ok I got the programmer to see the 18F2331 and was able to down load to the chip, but the program does not seem to be running. Is there something else I need to do to set the outputs or is flowcode doing that for me? All I am trying to is turn on a light Also I changed to a 18F2321 and we are back t...

Well i Got the programmer to work. I place 5V at pin 7 and it worked!

Thanks

Bill

I try thr pin 7 to 5v, no go, but the message I am getting is program failed <1, 3>
What does this mean?

Also the EB006-7 saw the 2321 but not the 06 version, is there an update?

thanks

Ok, I am using PPPV3 and trying to program at 18F2321. The Programmer does not "autodetect" the chip which is on the board. I have the lasted drivers. My Systems sees the programer and I can send files to but the chip will not program. Also the programming will erase the chip, or read the chip. I ha...

Thanks that worked out.

Hi,

I am using a V3.2.0.

Steve

I could find the link for the upgrade. I have a pro copy of V3 Flowcode, do I really need to upgrade to V4?

The componet ICON for the Flowcode buggy is not listed in the component list? What do I do now?

can I use a Picstart programmer with PPP3? if not what programmers can I use?
