Swordfish

Hi liak,

I'm also using the mikroelektronika EasyPIC boards since Version 3.
But I have to admit, that I missed some things and so I searched for another board.

On EBay- Germany (www.ebay.de) you can search for the following number and you'll see a good board.

130223006000

Good luck.

Hi David,

thanks for the fast reply, but why I get the message when the Swordfish IDE isn't running?

Hi all,

since yesterday I very often get the following message from Avira AntiVir:

"In the File 'C:\Program Files\Mecanique\Swordfish\SwordfishIDE.exe' found a Virus from type 'TR/Crypt.XPACK.Gen' [trojan]."

Whats this? Did anybody have same problem?

Hi all,

thanks for the hints. Now I have solved the problem.

The best solution is the hint from johngb! Thanks again for that!

Hey all, because I'm searching for a fast solution for my problem (VU- Meter) I played around with the subs and functions of the GLCD modul. Now I found out that the sub 'SQUARE(px,py,psize)' (SQUARE(30,16,5)) only draws a line. The Sub itself looks ok but this sub calls the sub Rectangle wich also ...

Hallo all again,

I'm back with no success.

@ Jon Candler: The command 'setimage' was so slow, that it wasn't useful.

Now I'm trying to convert johngb's tip!?

Christian

Hi all,

@ johngb: Yes, thats what I'm thinking of, but I don't have the right idea.

@ Doj: I use the PIC 18F4620. This MCU have a PLL. At this time I use him with 20MHz. When I use the PLL I can have 40MHz.

@ Steven: I use my favorite display type EA-DIP with the SED 1520 Controller.

Hi all, I have build a schematic for a VU-Meter with a PIC and a LCD. It works great but it is a little bit slow. May be someone is able to help me. Here is the code to build the bargraph: ...... Dim ADVUL as byte Dim ADVUR as byte .... Sub ADInAsVURect(value,sline,eline As Byte) Dim x As Integer Fo...

Hallo,

I have had nearby the same problems. David wrote:

You probably need to take a look at the datasheet, there are quite a few values to play with. You could start by trying something like:

Code: Select all

SetBaudrate(br19200) 
ADC.SetConvTime(FOSC_8) 
Repeat 
   ...

Hope this helps

Hi David,

that's the trick! I have set the Conversion Time to FOSC/4 and now I get the expected values!

Thanks

CS

Hi,

the thinks with the runing choice is solved. I now useing pulldown resistors for the PINS.

Hi again, I'm using an EasyPic4 with the PIC 18F4620 at 20MHz. The problem with the ADC: When I use the follwoing code I get values between 0 and 511: Device = 18F4620 Clock = 20 Include "usart.bas" Include "convert.bas" Include "adc.bas" SetBaudrate(br19200) Repeat USART.Write("ADC-Value: ", DecToS...

Hi all, in the following code there must be a mistake, but where? I use an EasyPic4 with a GLCD on PortB (Data) and PortD(Control). The Display works great but there are two problems: 1. The ADC should display a range between 0 and 1023 but I only get 0 till 511 (With the resistor on the EasyPic4) 2...

Hi rmteo,

the only thing that I can't see is the state of the RES-Pin from your display. It should be on highlevel.

Than it should work!

Hope that helps! Good luck!

Hi Francis, of course I made the changes for my own, but I think David will make the changes in the original modul and with the next update the little mistake is away! I have to addmit, that I first thought that my pic is demaged because I was not able to use the external Vref. After long times of r...
