Hey all I am new here but need some help I need to program a PIC 16F877A to distinguish between two other PIC microcontrollers. I was thinking of using a bit to identify between each of the two PICS theywould ideally be connected wirelessley with a TX/RX pair at each PIC. Any ideas??

Re: PIC 16F877A

Well basiclly I am doing a project where I need to have a 2 rows with each 8 seats. What I want to do is use a 8 bit address to specify between the rows and seats. What I have so far is the seat addressed in 3 bit binary. The 8 bit binary I address I want to set up will give the last 3 bits identifying the seats. The 4th and 5th bit will be the row 1 or row 2. The 6th bit will be on or off and the last two bits are unassigned. So if seat 1 row 2 is on it will be 00110001. Seat 2 row 1 00101010.

Program your receiving PIC to respond only to its corresponding bit, as you said either 4th or 5th bit.
