Here's a SwordFish BASIC example (running on Junebug)shaneshane1 said:
// JUNEBUG lights LED 3 when pushbutton 2 is pressed
Device = 18F1320
Clock = 0.031250 // default 31250 KHz Osc
Config OSC = INTIO2 // Use the Internal Oscillator
Dim Switch As PORTB.2,
LED As PORTA.6 //
Low(PORTA.7) // LED 3 Gnd
INTCON2.7 = 0 // enable PORTB input pullups
Input(Switch)
Loop:
If Switch = 0
Then High(LED)
Else Low(LED)
EndIf
GoTo Loop
End
Dim Switch As PORTB.2,
LED As PORTA.6

blueroomelectronics said:They're based on your (gramo) examples. I've been wanting to use Swordfish with the Mongoose kit PIC18F2525. Too bad no debug support though but it seems like a very nice compiler. I use Swordfish's own editor and the PICkit 2 standalone software (program on push button works like a charm
I guess what I'm trying to say to shaneshane1 is the PICAxe is interesting and certainly better than a BASIC Stamp but a good PIC compiler like Swordfish beats them both.
Went fine. It's a PIC 16F88 with a bootloader, so it's a pretty trivial thing for me to get working. I soldered up a programming cable, which you can see in **broken link removed**.shaneshane1 said:
Yup. Here ya go.shaneshane1 said:
main:
if pin1 = 1 then blink
goto main
blink: high 4
pause 50
low 4
pause 50
if pin1 = 0 then
goto main
else
goto blink
endifI had another look, and if you haven't already ordered, I'm going to change my recommendation to the **broken link removed**. It's a better chip and it's cheaper because you're not buying a USB to serial adapter with it (and it's the chip I have, so if you're asking questions I can help easier). Check if your computer has a **broken link removed** on the back first. Almost all computers do.futz said:
Those are just labels, or symbols, and they can be almost anything as long as you don't use BASIC's reserved words (commands). You'll find a reserved word list in the manuals.shaneshane1 said:
I would definitely switch that to a AXE002/030XU then. The X chip has lots more memory. Makes things easier and it's only another five bucks.

I did try to push him (gently) into a Junebug. But after a while I realized that he was a complete newb and thought that a Picaxe might be (as I said earlier) "a kinder and gentler intro". BASIC hides all the complexity from me. There's no challenge for someone like me.
