Yes I got it working but had to change a few software settings that were enabled.
Just an update:-
EB058 works with - 16f88, 18f4455
EB058 Not Working with - 16f877a, 16f873a
EB051 works with - 16f88, 16f877a
EB063 works with - 16f88
EB063 Not working with - 16f877a, 16f873a
The pattern emerging here is the 16f87xa pic's are not working with spi commands, I have correctly connected, hence all the other applications working, so the question is what's happening ???
I'm running under windows 7 and the flowcode version is v4.5.18.74
The position for the jumper is "B" for the EB063 & EB058 when using the 16f877a and 16f873a, and I have also used the patch connections with no joy.
Unfortunatly I have not been able to get the devices to talk, I have loaded your examples directly into the chips no mods etc.. and still not working, about time the boys from matrix shed a little light on this to be honest.
Both my programmmers are the EB006-7
With the standard 19.660800 crystal
Ive had both systems working perfectly today. Ive had them set up next to each other on the bench, didnt even need to plug an aerial into the RF boards.
Just a thought, seeing as you are having problems with the spi command on port c, have you tried a simple binary counter (say 0 to 255 in steps of 1) to output to the LED E-Block on Port C.
If this fails you know there is a problem with either the PIC or the port.
1 in 10 people understand binary, the other one doesn't !
Yes I agree, I have a counter that displays on the lcd, this counts 8 bit, this works fine and keeps working, only when I introduce the rf component into the circuit, the counter does not work ?
It's as if the program does not get past this component in the sequence of the software ?
I have had the 18f445 working on spi on the glcd, so I will try that next and see what happens ?
Have found the problem, one of the development boards I'm using have been left from a previous project with 18f4455, USB HID project, the usb port selects jumper settings C3, C4 and C5, when returned back to normal position the rf modules started talking.
