Hi Rob,
Did you look at the output pin A0 with a LED, is it blinking on and off at the right rate?

Re: Servo Component not working
Hi Rob, Ok let's try and narrow down the area we are looking. With the 16F18426 failing to load the program to the chip. What programmer are you using? What error messages are you getting? With the 16F1454 while it does have 2 PWM channels, they are not the standard Output Compare (OC) PWM channels ...

Re: Servo Component not working
Hello Rob, The servo component is driven using two output compare peripherals and a timer. Usually this means a device with at least 2 OC based PWM channels. An oscillator speed of 1MHz is pretty slow. On the device you selected you should be able to use the max speed of 32MHz. Just make sure the cl...

Hi Enrique, Sounds like a sweet project :D bad dad jokes there I'm sorry :wink: If you set position 0 and then wait say half a second for the motor to move into position then you can call the disable macro to switch off the motor output. This will cut power to the motor and stop the vibration. Then ...

Re: Problems with PIC12F629 that doesn't program them to work
Hi Simon,
Thanks for letting us know. I've been doing some reading and gone back through the code produced by Flowcode and so far I have't found any problems. The chip I have also isn't working but is very old now and so I'll see if I can get my hands on a new one to do more tests with.

Re: Circular buffer - FlushBuffer command
Hi Abhi, This should not be required. If you flush the buffer then the buffer is effectively empty and available to receive more data. Make sure you use the GetNumberBytes macro to check the contents of the buffer before reading out data and then you will be sure you won't be reading out old stale d...

Re: FAT SD Card Data Logger
Hello Abhi,
Are you using v7 or v8? It should be possible to set the SPI prescaler so that the initial speed is less than 400KHz.
A PIC at 64MHZ will actually be running at an instruction rate of 16MHz. 16MHz / 1:64 Prescaler = 250KHz

Are you able to post a simple project that demonstrates the issue and we will investigate it for you.

Hi Jan,
Very sorry to hear that hope you're ok.
We have recently covered both of these items in Flowcode v9. You could use the free trial and see uow you get on. I believe both items are currently included in the free offering and so will continue to work once the 30 day trial is up.

Re: MAX31855 pin mapping
Hello Roy,
On some target chips the SPI and other peripherals can be assigned to various IO pins. When this is an option the remap properties become active allowing you to select which IO pins you want to use.
