You are right Ben, I did not copy the custom code.
But I have a question: when I try to copy the code it seems that another file exists with the same name, should I overwrite?
thank you,
Best regards.

Hello Ben, I would like to ask if I can use the mobile phone solution in order to send a text message from my mobile phone or make an unanswered call to the mobile phone bundle and then use that "stimulation" and have a PIC to process it and then output a desired action? (e.x out on LCD>>1 unanswere...

Hello,
I would like to ask if when I create a new macro and then set the parameters and local variables and after that I have closed the window; I decide to edit/change the parameters of the macro, can I do that? Or I have to create a new one?
Thank you,
Best regards.

Hello, I have just downloaded the mmc-sd data logger.zip and run the software. I do not know if I am doing something wrong but when I run the program the LCD continuously displays "waiting for card". Also when I do "step into" the program loops in the " WHILE retval > 0" loop icon. Also when I open ...

hello, I have 2 PICs that Communicate wirelessly via Fm transmiter/receiver(VY48-MAPLIN) through RS232 TX/Rx with 2 wires. At first the PICs were communicating ok. I was pressing the switches one the "sender" PIC and the desired value was transmitted on the "receiver" PIC and the value was indicated...

Hello Ben, Thank you for the reply. Sorry to bother you again for the RFID help files but it seems that the RFID.hlp does not exist in my flowcodev3 directory. When I am in the component properties of the macro and I select the question mark button, the help file is refered generaly for the macros. ...

Hello Ben, So as far as it concerns the timer overflow interrupt I need to test it in "real life"? OK then. Also the clock source was indeed set at CLK0>>>regarding that, you wrote in your previous post that it must be set at CLKI>>should I presume that it was spelling error or it is CLK0 only in my...

Hello, I am giving a lot of time for this project but it seems that I have some drawbacks! I would like some help if you can. I have design in some pieces of paper how the Program will go but I need to solve some problems before I implement it in flowcode. First I would like some help with Timer0 in...

Hello, Is it possible to view the changes on variables and call stack when the program run? When I go step to step is OK I can see the changes in the window but when I press "play" button to run the program then the call stack and variable windows are empty! They only show if I hover my mouse over t...

Thank you a lot Ben!!!
I will get to work as soon as possible and let you know about the progress!
Best Regards.

Hello Ben, Appreciate your reply! Is there any Macros about saving data to the ECIO in order to be able to be exported in Excel format afterwards? My guess up to now was that I would use the write EEPROM command in the appropriate macro to store the data. But later how I will "transform" the data in...

Hello, Many thanks Ben. So to resolute; I need an SD/MMC dard reader for the extra memory, the 16f8877a can handle the accurate time-keeping issue. I have a couple more questions: >Can I assign the values to the RFID Tags via a PS2 keyboard attached to the PS2/VGA board? >If I have an ECIO to be the...

Hello, I wanted to know if the RFID solution pack can be used to keep track of the working hours of employees(Time Attendance Monitoring Clocking-In System). Is it possible to have a switch board attached to it and program it from the switches? Example like: a new employee comes and we have to assig...

Thank you a lot Ben,
Going to try it!
Best Regards.

Thank you Ben,
So I shall costruct the same circuit with the only difference I supply 12volts the relay?
One last question: the relay must have the same ground referrence with the 5 volts?
Thank you.

Hi, Sometimes it happens that when I press the "step into" or "step over" button the call stack and sometimes the variable window gets out of the screen!!! I select "view" and the variable and call stack options are ticked. To find the 2 windows I must open flowcode in a small window in order to see...

Hello Ben, Thank you for your reply. It seems that I have lost it during the "translation". Actually I did not quite understood the connections for the relay! I am attaching a picture as I search on how would be the connections. For the relay you wrote 3 connections but on the diagram it seems that ...

hi!
I want to ask if I want to measure temperature and display it on an LCD screen do I have to get the sensor board and the temperature probe?
Thank you.

hi!
Are you going to write yourself the code or do you use the flowcode3 graphical interface?

Hello, I have been unsuccesfully tried to drive a 12volt relay from 5v source and a tranzistor. I do not know what went wrong. I studied the circiut diagram of the relay board pdf, in order to "copy" the circuit but it seems that here I cannot find the BCW32 tranzistor!!! Is there an "easy" compinat...

Hi! I just wanted to know if the infrared board can decode or store the outgoing signal from a e.x TV remote control and after if I can use that signal to resend it back to the TV but not via the remote control but through the infrared board and the TV will respond?(can I manipulate a TV via the inf...

Hi, I have a board and I placed on it a PIC programmed to output 255 on LEDs. When the power supply for the PIC is coming from the EB006-30-5 multiprogrammer things seems to be fine, what I mean: when I set low(ground) the MCLR pin of the PIC in order to reset it the LEDs while are on they dimm a li...
