Problem with ULONG variable?

[Dave Squibb]

Hi all,

I have a simple program which counts pulses on PORTB,0 (using the interrupt) and outputs the count to an LCD via a variable Count1. Count1 is set as type ULONG. However, when the count reaches 32768 it rolls over to -32768 and counts downwards. In the C code the definition is MX_GLOBAL MX_UINT32 FCV_COUNT1 = (0x0);

Code attached,

Thanks,

Dave

Hi Dave.
Instead of using LCD PrintNumber
Use LCD PrintFormattedNumber.
You will also need to enter 1 in the Format for unsigned Number.
You may also require a small delay within main loop.
