You're only showing part of the complete code, so it's out of context - but I would imagine that before it enters the code section you've shown it was set to bank 1, so the first instruction is to return to bank 0 (the place you normally want to be). In this particular case, the next line sets bank 1 again, so it's likely that BOTH lines could be left out if required.

It's also highly like that the different code segments were 'cut and pasted' together, which is probably why it occurred - but it does no harm.
 
I am doing fine, Thanks again for your concern blueroomelectronics. Thanks everyone for replying

movlw .126 ;set highest PWM value
banksel PR2 ;over this (127) is permanently on
movwf PR2

Can someone explain these lines? Why .126 not .128??

I don't know why I became interested in PIC so suddenly. Maybe because of the mystery that it covers.

hi Hesham,

Do you have a copy of the 16F818 datasheet.?

Study the attached image.
Its important that you understand the Bank selection.

I would suggest 'learners' of assembly language, use the STATUS register bits RP1 amd RP0 for Bank selection.

Once they understand the Bank selection process then start using the Banksel directive.

The 126 [7Eh], as explained in the program comments, at 127 [ 7Fh] 0111,1111 the motor is running forward, permanently ON.

For the value 7Fh is 0111,1111.
the next increment would be 128 [80h] 1000,0000, which in the comments is explained as a motor reversal.[ at the slowest speed].

255 [FFh] 1111,111 is top speed in reverse.

OK.?

We set 126? why 127 is still motor running forward?

Another question what is the different between postscaler and prescaler?

Can someone show me a flow diagram how to set the period to (1/280hz) & duty cycle to 22%? any idea? using PIC16F818.



Thanks in advance
 

Hi Hesham,
Most of the questions you are asking are explained in the PIC 16F818 datasheet, if you dont have one, goto Microchip Technology Inc. - a Leading Provider of Microcontroller and Analog Semiconductors and download a copy.

Let rephrase my question:

Anyone know a good tutorial about Pwm REALLY basic tutorial!!!!

I somehow get lost reading the manual! But I will try my best

I didn't know that everything is explained in the manual? Then why there is tutorial over the internet.

As mentioned, some times the manual get abit hard, therefore I am really interested in easy tutorial easy easy easy like one that eric keep explaining !!

Hehe If I recommend a writer! ErIC

yOU like explaining in a nice way

Thanks

Are you sure you want a PWM tutorial not a SERVO tutorial? PWM is similar but not the same as Servo.
PWM is for speed control on DC motors, lights etc...
Servo is a pulse no greater than 2ms at 20ms intervals.
I've used the hardware PWM channel for a servo but it's very course.
 
hi Hesham,
As Bill points out, you are looking for Servo information not PWM for motor control.

I will have a look thru my database, see if I can find anything useful.

I know I keep asking but have you built the 555 test rig,?
With an oscilloscope you could study the servo's characteristics.

It would be a useful tool if you plan to do lots of servo projects.
 
Here are the codes written for driving a servo motor.

Btw, The servo motor didn't rotate?
I am actually still confuse how to set the period and the off and on time of the square wave.

Thanks in advance

You have almost no chance of building a line following 18 servo spider robot before the December deadline. My advice is to stop worrying about it and concentrate on learning C and PIC basics and enter the contest next year. You're in way over your head IMO.

That code is from my PWM tutorial, and doesn't feed a servo motor, it's for feeding two DC motors via H-bridges, so your servo isn't going to move (they don't 'rotate').

I agree with Bill, you don't have a prayer of meeting your deadline - you've been asking questions for ages, and still haven't even started.

hi Hesham,
That program is not for driving a servo.!

Also a servo motor does not 'rotate' [ limited to about 180deg]

Did you build the 555 servo tester.?

You must get a grasp of the Basics otherwise you will be posting for weeks and miss the deadline.

I would like to help, but you are not following our advice...

EDIT: I think there is an echo in here.

As I stated two weeks ago, clicky. I like helping people but Uaefame is either too stupid or too lazy to learn anything. When he starts asking questions that can't be answered in 30 seconds with a quick google I may be less critical.

Mike.
 
I took these codes from Pommie post the one he posted in page 2.

The codes is written for p16F876A
I changed the include file "p16F877.inc" and the title to 16F877 when I run this it give me error still.

What you think is wrong? BTW these code is written for PIC16F876A and it appear that the manual of both of them is same. Therefore, I assume the codes must be similar.

My interested is to assemble these codes in my PIC16F877 if you have any idea what wrong while changing the codes from 16F876A till PIc 16F877 please tell me.

Thanks again for the ace forum
 
The 877 is virtually the same as the 877A
The CMCON is not there so just ignore it
It uses a different programming algorithm (not applicable)

What error are you getting?
 
When I am so close to experiement something out, something goes wrong.

Strange how the odds work against you.

The PIC16F877 is so big that it doesn't easily fit or can't even fit to the breadboard.

Any ideas? Do you think i need another way to do it?
