guys, Im a starter of PIC microcontroller.

As I check the Hitech c compiler there are fuse bits settings for WDT, FOSC and ETC.. and then when I look to my programmer software (winPICgm and pony prog) the same settings for config bits are present..

the question is, is it the same if I just make a fuse bit settings during programming the device? I mean I will just write code to my compiler without setting a fuse bits. and set it later in my programming software.(winpicgm and ponyprog,Icprog).?

thanks ckshivaram!! You're the best!! :)

I will study first how to set the fuse bits..if you have any useful links pls share.. Im reading also now..
 

Hi,

this is very good tutorial of hitech - C for pic 18

I've got this simple code but why there's a warning that is out of date?? what does it mean??

IM using the new version of MPLAB from microchip.. the hex is generated but not funtioning.. i tested it in proteus..
 

thanks.. it's now working.. what's wrong with declaring specific bit like what I did?


this sample code is now working

void main()
{
   TRISB = 0;
   while(1)
   {
      PORTB = 1;
   }
}

I think I need to declare first TRISB = 0 before I can declare RB2 = 0;

wait I will try.. :)
 

Nothing is wrong, you can use specific bits of a PORT if needed.
If you use TRISB=0;
That means you are setting each bits of TRISB register to 0.
This makes all PORTB bits as output .

If you want to make a single bit say RB0 as output then you can use
TRISB0=0;
or
TRISB=0b11111110;
This details are there in the datasheet.
 
thanks... I think I know a little of using PIC microcontroller... tnx guys... I will practice more..

I tried this code and its working.

      for(x=0; x<1000; x++);
      RB0 = 0;
      RB5 = 1;

      if(RB1 = 0)
      RB7 = 1;
      else
      RB7 = 0;
      
   }
}
 

yes sorry.. that's typographical error.. :) hehe

thanks..

by the way what is the difference if I say

#include"pic.h"
and
#include<pic.h>

the result is the same in the simulation..
 

if you use < > symbol then this file is searched in the complete drive
if you use " " then the header file is searched only in the present working directory......

I noticed that the fuse bits of HItech C is not working unless you write directly the fuse bits into your code.. . Isn't it?
 

yes... there is no need to click on helpful button.. if you feel the answered has helped you then you can click... that's what vinodstanur means..........
