Hello,

Im sure as a new member there is a protocol im not following, I have read the sticky FAQ and a large number of posts about people fantastic projects.

Which makes it all the much more pathetic that i cant get my simple atempt to work.

The code should be a simple counter - the units and tens being desplayed on 1 LED each - tens are represented by blue LED's and units by white.

The only problem is it dosent work at all... hmm

Could someone possibly have a look at the code bellow and give me some pointers - both on getting it to work & on any style or best practice tips

Thanks very much

Piers

The first thing that stands out is the lack of a CONFIG instruction.

A config line that should work is

Code:

             __config     0x3d10

This sets up the chip to use the internal 4meg oscillator and the various pin configurations. Have a look at the datasheet under section 14 for a fuller explanation.

The other thing you should do is to include the definition file. This will define all the special function registers like TMR0.
At the top of your code you should have:-

Code:

        processor     16f628
#define     __16f628
        include    "p16f628.inc"

HTH

Mike.

In addition to Pommie's good advice, I would like to add:

1. In pasting code to the forum, you can surround your code using the pair of "[ code ]" attribute and the code will then appear just as they do in your editor for easy viewing.

2. You said the program did not work. What did it show? All LEDs off, some on some off or changing randomly. All these are pointers to debugging.

3. When the program does not work, do it in steps. Do not debug the whole program. First try to light half of the LEDs on a port to see whether you can do just that, follows with the GOTO instruction to loop forever. Gradually adding other parts to your program bit by bit to build it up.

All sound advice - going a little further on that theme, don't try and write all your program in one go, build it up a part at a time, and confirm each part is fully functional before continuing.

In your particular case I would suggest doing the 'display' section first, use a simple incrementing counter to feed it varying values.
