RS 232 Question

Post by billduck »

When I compile a short program using RS 232 communication, the message is "This version of Flowcode will compile for the following components only, listing the outputs( LCD, LED Array...)" What does this mean?
Thanks, ( Newby) Bill S

Hello billduck
What Version of Flowcode have you got?
This is from the Flowcode AVR data sheet
Limited components
Free and home versions do not have all components. Limited component
versions all have LED, LED array, Switch, Switchbank, ADC, LCD, 7-segment
display, Keypad, and Quad 7-segment displayThe PICmicro version
additionally has MIAC and Formula Flowcode. These versions cannot have
more components added to them as free downloads. Other versions include
all components.
So RS232 is not on the above list
So could it be you have Free or home versions or student version?
If you have professional version then will will be able to use in addition Advanced components which include:
SPI bus, I2C bus, Internet,
Webserver, CAN bus, LIN bus, EEPROM, IrDA,
Bluetooth, PWM, AddDefines and RS232
I may have missed a few things off the list, since was quoting from V3 and not V4.

That's why 232 is not working. If you want 232 function you will need to upgrade to pro version.
