To be used to access an array, rx_char, needs to be a char*, not a char (it automatically is this type, if the declaration is of an array). What is the actual declaration line, for 'rx_char'...

I have the below code to read from an EEPROM and output several lines at once (rather than having to read the EEPROM for each line which slows it down), yet I don't get any output apart from:

Wouldn't it be easier to use the internal EEPROM? CCS provide commands and examples (EXT_INTEE.C) for this.

e.g. (not checked and it only works if your ID is 8bytes maximum.)

Oops sorry, you're quite right, only noticed the NAND gate (74HC00).

Although it may be worth looking at something like a SPDT analog switch (part number escapes me at the moment) in which case you ...

Another way, and the way I use, is to use a analog switch for the RX line. This has the advantage of simply requiring power connections, one wire to PIC, and two wires to the USB/serial connectors.

Thanks for your feedback, it is *very* helpful.

Just looked at CAN bus and it seems that only messages of 8bytes can be transmitted?

Thanks very much for your replies, you've both helped clear it up for me.

So, RS-485 is basically RS-232 but with the ability for more than one device? I can use fprintf etc with it?

Thats bril ...

Hiya,

(Using 18F452s, but this can be changed if need be, with CCS 3.249 all at 40Mhz)

I'm looking at interfacing 4/5 PICs together, one master and the rest are slaves, but I need the slaves to ...

I don�t know what are you trying to do using float, but I guess that you misunderstand the use of float and int32.

Cheers, I tried implementing that, but I got

I have an int32 which contains a sample frequency in Hz.

I want to convert this to the corresponding delay time.

This works fine, by doing:

Does delay_ms support using floats?

e.g. I have a variable, delay, which has the value 3.999999E+01 (from fprintf,"%f,delay).

I then use delay_ms(delay);.

Should this work? I seem to be ...

Something like below should do the job much more simply?
