Hi there,

I was wondering if anyone can help me with a project I'm working on. This is a bit of a step up from the normal projects I do so it’s a bit of a learning curve. I’m trying to get RPM ...

Hi Ttelmah,

Thanks - that works well. Much better to use int's and insert a decimal point for what i want - happy days Very Happy

Hi Ttelmah,

Thanks for the reply. I actually tried that variation but i keep getting:

Error 115 Printf format (%) invalid

My Version is 3.230 so it's pretty old - my spider senses are telling ...

Hi all,

Thanks for your replies!

Ttelmah,

How would i use %w in my code to produce a decimal point? I have:

printf(lcd_putc, "S:%Ld", set_temperature);

I've tried ...

Thanks for the fast reply. What i want to do is take the average of two temperature probes and use that to control an output. So:

Probe 1 = 20 degree's.
Probe 2 = 21 degree's
Average = 20.5 degre ...

Hi there,

I have been trying to print a float value to a display and it seems to print the wrong value. For example:

float set_temperature = 50;

...

printf(lcd_putc, "A:%f&quo ...

Hi,

Just to complete the thread I've got it working. It was down to handshaking - I downloaded "VncFwMod.exe" from the Vinculum website and created a new ftd file that had the rts and cts ...

Hi,

I've had a look on the web and it seems that most people tie the RTS and CTS lines together.

I'm still having no luck creating and writing the file though. To be honest it seems that a lot ...

Thanks for the information.

I've had a read and it seems fairly simple with the commands given. However, I am still unable to get it working. Here's my code:

#include <16f876a.h>

#fuses ...

Hi all,

I have recently been given a Vdrive2 to connect to my PICDEM 2 board. I already use the temperature sensor on the board and save the data to the I2C chip and download it via RS232. I would ...

Thanks for all of your help so far, this is becoming much clearer!

I have checked my CCS compiler and it supports the PIC18F4620 PIC. I also have a good idea of how to design the circuit so buildin ...

Ah, makes more sense now, cheers.

Is there anyway I can use my 16 series PIC to perform the task?

Hi,

Not sure what you mean by a PCH compiler - do you mean that the CCS compiler won't do the job? I have looked at the read me for my IDC2 and both of these IC's are compatible.

Hello,

I am after a bit of help. I would like to use an SD card (or equivalent) for data storage. I want a PIC to create a .txt file (or equivalent) for storage and when the data is stored I can u ...

Thanks for the prompt reply, Works a treat!!
