MP Lab Program Help - Electronic Circuits Projects Diagrams Free

bamafan54 · 19th October 2007, 12:58 AM

Hello All.

I am trying to complete a project for my senior design course. Our project is involves creating the electronics for a glass front vendor coke machine. My portion of the project is to control the two dc motors and the solenoids to release the product I have most of my code written (using MP Lab and assembler language). I am also using a PIC16F877A as the uController and the MCP2515 as the can bus controller.

Upon compiling my code I came up with numerous errors. Could someone please take a look at it and advise where I have went wrong. If I have done things correctly all of my .asm files should be attached.

Hi,
Why you're not combining everything into a single file?
I see the first file has:

Code:

	MOVLW	0X1B98
	MOVWF	CONFIGURATION_WORD

which I don't think working, because w register is a 8-bit long register, no 16 bits.
The configuration setting is usually after the header file of the variables (p16F877a.inc) like this:

Code:

LIST	  P=16F877A
#INCLUDE <P16F877A.INC>
  __config   0x1b98

And you don't need the Variables.asm for those special function registers, only for your general purpose registers will do.

What did you get when you try to assemble the code?

bananasiong,

Here is the error I recieve. I have all of the below files in a single project as a .mcp file, but I could not upload a file with this extension.

I have no idea what it is trying to say to me. I aplologize if I seem ignorant when it comes to this, but this is about the second time I have even attempted to write code.

Remember that in MPLAB if you double click on the error, it will take you right to the place in the source file that caused the error.
But I think the error comes from the fact that you've got
ORG 0X004
In Interrupt.asm Coming BEFORE
ORG 0X000
in Main.asm
This is because the #include<file.asm> directive works exactly the same as if you had pasted the code from file.asm where the #include directive is typed.
EDIT:
Also, since you are writing Absolute Code, take all the files out of the project file except for main.asm since you are using the #include directive to include them in main.asm. Otherwise MPLAB will try to compile these files on their own giving you errors because there are no ORG statements for it to decide where the code resides in each file.
