Thanks Brandon and Rod for your efforts....Awsome

Oh..wait I see it now ...those are the initialization numbers in converted from hex to decimal. :D LCD initialize 0x33,.... 51 Set for 4 bit operation 0x32,..... 50 Set for 2 line LCD 0x2c,..... 44 Select move after write 0x06,..... 6 disp. on cursor off blink off 0x0c...... 12

to initialize display:
set rs to low since we are sending a command,then send these numbers
51,50,44,6,12

How did you get these numbers Brandon?

Thanks Brandon,

Good Work ...as usual.

Thanks Brandon,

Nice work

Thanks Brandon...I have to give you a big thumbs up, especially since I was the picky one about adding the binary part.

That was quick.

I haven't done anything to the FCD still I can see three timers in Flowcode. Good..Maybe I am the only one, but I doubt it. Like what are the odds of that happening. :) That's why I don't play the lottery much...but then it's up to $500 Million today...I think I'll buy a ticket :lol: Thanks, Danny

Apparently I had a corrupted or outdated version. If there are others that have the same problem. Here is the fix. Thanks Brandon

Danny

I posted a question about this in the minor fixes and was ask to move to here in a seperate thread. Can ayone tell me why I can't see all of the timers when I tried to use this pic in flowcode 5.4. It should have (timer0,1,2) however I only see timer0. My question is simply is there an updated FCD f...

Can you tell in different thread what else you are looking for?

I only see tmr0...I would like to change to tmr2. See what I mean?

I tryed to use this Pic12f683 chip and didn't see all of the available timers....Is there an updated FCD for PIC12f683

http://microcontrollershop.com/product_ ... ts_id=4406 I was wondering if the graphic LCD in this link will work with flowcode5

Thanks,
Danny

Brandon, To clarify what your saying in the math formula: the old flowrate divided by the new flowrate gives a ratio number. 30/20=1.5 , Then you take the squareroot of that number: squareroot of 1.5=1.2247. Then you multiply 1.2247 x 100=12.24. In affect what your saying is that there was a 22.47% ...

I figured out how to get it back working.....I overwrote the pk2DeviceFile.dat file with the one that I had dated 1/9/2009. The one with the update to pickit2 V2.61 dated 10/4/2011 is where the problem lies....Hope this helps anybody else that might fall into the same trap..... :) I'm sure there is ...

Hi Danny, You should however be able to use the command line tool still via Flowcode independent of the version of standalone PICkit software you are using. Maybe go into the Chip -> Compiler options menu and try clicking restore defaults and see if this makes any difference. Let me know how you ge...

Oh...OK,

Thanks for the quick reply Ben..

switching on the hex file monitoring functionality

Hi Ben,

I don't see where you are talking about setting this in the stand alone programmer. Can you post a screen shot of it.

Thanks,

Danny

I recently upgraded this to v2.61 and now I can't compile to chip from within flowcode. It only works with compile to hex. Problem with that is having to open another program just to burn the file to the chip. Does anybody have any suggestions on how to fix this other than uninstalling and going bac...

You could maybe try renaming your Flowcode file to contain no spaces but I think Wolfgang is correct about the device support on the v2.

I tried that for you Brandon..It still doesn't work.

Hi Dazz,

I got it working but with a little difference in whats posted in the dated link. My friend helped out by furnishing what worked with the latest information for using pickit2 with version 5.1 through email.

Thanks,
Danny

I purchased V5 pro and I can't get the programmer to work. I'm trying to get it to work with pickit2. Also why is the posting not available yet. Any help would be greatly appreciated. When I try to to compile to chip it returns with failure code =-2

OK Werner,

Here's my interpretation...Of what you show in the Jpeg...Now can you get it to count for me or make corrections to what I have.

I got it to simulate in flowcode showing 00.00


Thanks,

Danny

Hi Werner,

I can't make out what the 4th macro from the bottem says: PrintNumber(length..?..digit)

Also I think the first one at the top says: PrintASCII("AT:") is this correct...what I mean is It's hard to read..

Thanks,

Danny

Hi Danny, I don’t know if this will help you but I just broke the number down and did two PrintString’s to the LCD for numbers each side to the decimal point. I did a third PrintString (“.”) write for the decimal point. Have a great day! Werner That's what was needed...Thanks Werner :D Have a great...

Can anybody show a way to put in a number with a decimal in it for a 16x2 LCD using flowcode? I know what the binary address is ..11100010....just don't know how to go about entering it into flowcode file.

Thanks,
Danny
