Pic 16f877a prob with RRF & RLF command

[Sheritronics]

I am a beginner to the programming can any one help me why the code below is not working i have to make a sequential led circuit on portE and portB, I am using pic16f877a in Mplab 8.76

Hi,

Assume you have got the code from the web; its a very poor example of how to write assembler code.

I have made 2 very small changes to the code to run on my MPlab and it works in that it sequentially changes Portb 0,1 and 2 and Flashes
PortE 2

If you look at these tutorials you will see that properly written code is a lot easier to follow and understand.

Try the flashing led examples and then you should be able to make your own sequential chaser.

If you get stuck post your code for help.

It is a bit easier to read code, if you use the names for SFR's and Ports, such as STATUS. Also using the Microchip template aids readability.
You do not seem to have defined the processor.


What are you using for an oscillator? Frequency?
Have you turned off the analog functions (e.g., comparators) for those ports (Port E)?

At what point is there failure? Is it in simulation or real life? Do the red LED's on PortB and PortE turn on? Do they turnoff? Have you simulated your delay?
