SOLVED: Compile Error (Arduino MEGA 2560)

Further to replacing the USB Serial component with UART, I'm delighted to confirm the project compiled successfully. Having since received/programmed an ATMEGA2560 board (Arduino clone) using Microchip Studio, ICSP programmer and exported 'ELF' file, the board fired up and worked straight off the ba...

Hi Martin. Sincere thanks for your kind support. I posted on the V9 forum without reply, so reached out to the MatrixTSL forum for guidance. I'm generally unfamiliar with AVR micros, though the need to switch from PIC was driven by a professional project supported by popular available off-shelf asse...

Compile Error (Arduino MEGA 2560)

Hi Guys. I've ported a working project from PIC to ATMEGA2560 with 16MHz Xtal for professional application, so I'm using build target option: 'Arduino Mega 2560' for the project.

Hi Martin. My apologies for the delayed reply, and thank you for the detailed information you provide.

Maximum String Length for 16 and 32-bit PICs

Hello all. I've seen something in an old FC7 forum topic to suggest that max string length for 16-bit (and possibly 32-bit) PICs was increased, from 8-bit to 'something' to accommodate 400 chars in a former 16-bit PIC project. However, the help Wiki continues to suggest 256 chars max... https://www....

Referencing a ROM table in a C block

First, a happy and prosperous new year to you all :) Hopefully a quick question... Having declared a 16 x 16-bit ROM look-up table using the usual LUT component, I'm trying to establish the appropriate way to reference values in a C block? e.g... FCV_THISUINT = FCV_THISTABLE[indexval] is clearly inc...

Interrupt component fails on PIC32MZ

Hi team. Attached is an extract from a project which exemplifies an issue with the interrupt component when deployed with the challenging PIC32MZ2048EFG144. Exactly the same macro is called in the loop as by interrupt. Clock settings therefore appear AOK and the loop approach works fine, but all int...

Hello experts, I'm needing to change PB2CLK for correct UART speed, though I've come across need to exercise an unlock sequence before being able to change the prescaler.
