loop time out - Electronic Circuits Projects Diagrams Free

still trying to learn assembly

If I'm thinking right this would loop until PORTA,1 is set
but if I needed it to carry on if PORTA,1 does not set in say 20 sec.
what would be the best way to do it in assembly

BTFSC PORTA,1
GOTO AUNT NANCY'S
GOTO $-2
GOTO UNCLE Bob'S

something like this is how I would do it in Pic Basic Pro

A VAR WORD
For A= 0 TO 20000 '20 SEC.
Pause 1
IF PORTA,1 =1 Then
goto aunt Nancy's

EndIF
Next A
goto uncle Bob's

thanks to all

Hi,

Labels need to be one word in assembler e.g. AUNT_NANCY'S, UNCLE_Bob'S.

As for the time maybe something like;

Code:

BTFSC Timer1_done_bit ;has timer 1 timed out (overflowed)?
GOTO UNCLE_Bob'S      ;yes it has
BTFSC PORTA,1         ;no it has not
GOTO AUNT_NANCY'S  
GOTO $-4

UNCLE_Bob'S:
bcf     Timer1_done_bit

Note:
('Timer1_done' is a made up label)

You can do it pretty much the same as your basic program,

Code:

		movlw	high(.20000)+1
		movwf	CounterHi
		movlw	low(.20000)
		movwf	CounterLo
WaitPortA	call	Delay1mS
		btfsc	PORTA,1
		goto	Done
		decfsz	CounterLo,F
		goto	WaitPortA
		decfsz	CounterHi,F
		goto	WaitPortA
Done		nop

The Delay1mS code is also rather simple,

Code:

Delay1mS	movlw	.249
DelayLoop	addlw	.255
		btfss	STATUS,Z
		goto	DelayLoop
		return

This assumes a 4MHz oscillator.

Mike.

Thanks Guy just what the doctor ordered
different people have to learn things different ways
and hate to say it but I'm one of the one that has to do it on a "as need be bases"
because tomorrow when I wake up I will have forgot not only how I did something
BUT WHY I EVEN DID IT
as always thanks
