Compiler V4 to V5 -- Interrupt Problem
PostPosted: Fri Oct 11, 2013 8:01 am     Reply with quote

Just kind of looking into this right now.

I have an interrupt on Timer 0 and Timer 1 -- neither are working now since I updated to V5.

Using a PIC16F887.

I'll look into it with debugging and try compiling the project using V4 and V5 -- then comparing .lst files to see what has changed.

Anyone else experience this?

Thanks.

Post a short compilable test program and post your compiler version.
Then we can test it.

As PCM_Programmer says 'versions'?.

'V4', covers over 100 compiler versions, and there were some significant changes in the early V4.1xx area.

Are you using the default CCS behaviours, or doing any 'DIY' work on the registers?. If the latter, then try using #DEVICE CCS4. This puts the handler behaviour back to V4 modes.

Are you confident the chip is running other than the interrupt?. Some of the _default_ values for fuses have changed. Check the fuses at the end of the .lst file, and see if anything here is different.

Generally, 99%+ of code that runs with 4.141, will directly work with V5 versions. However it has re-introduced a problem that existed a few versions ago, with on some chips, GIE being left turned off if you use sprintf (thread about this a few days ago). It is possible that your code is exhibiting this.

Using Compiler V5.012 -- was using V4.132
PIC16F887

Wrote this test code for Timer1 -- (of course) it works fine when complied with V5.012.

So -- I will look into it further.

Ttelmah -- I did try the #DEVICE CCS4 earlier on the original code and it did not have an effect.
I will check out and compare .lst files too.

I'll keep you posted.
Thanks.


Code:

#include <16f887.h>
#fuses HS,NOPROTECT,NOPUT,NOBROWNOUT,NOLVP,NOFCMEN,NOCPD,NOWDT,BORV21
#use delay (clock=20000000)

#define Alarm2_LED    PIN_B0      //Alarm A2
#define Alarm1_LED    PIN_B1      //Alarm A1
#define INTS_PER_SECOND_1 10     //For Timer1  (16 bit)
#define TIME_OUT 5         //5 Second Timeout ON/OFF LED Cycle


int1 int_flag = FALSE;
int int_count_1 = 0;           // Number of interrupts left
long seconds_1 = 0;           // A running seconds counter  Timer 1


void main(){

   //Timer1 Setup -- will increment every 1.6us and overflow every 104.85 ms (1.6us*65535) -- set TIME_OUT at 5 (seconds)
   int_count_1 = INTS_PER_SECOND_1;
   setup_timer_1(T1_INTERNAL|T1_DIV_BY_8);
   set_timer1(0);// Set Timer1 to 0
   seconds_1 = 0;////Seconds Counter -- Increments by 1 every 10 (INT_TIMER1)Interrupts   

   //Initialize LEDs and Relays
   output_low(Alarm1_LED);
   output_low(Alarm2_LED);

   enable_interrupts(INT_TIMER1);
   enable_interrupts(GLOBAL);


   while(1){

      if (int_flag == TRUE){

      }
      else{
         output_low(Alarm1_LED);
         output_low(Alarm2_LED);
      }   
   }

}

Can you please try testing using sample code: With and Without #define FPRINT
The fprintf() is turning off the GIE bit and not allowing the timer1 interrupt to function.
I'm using a PIC16F887 and compiler Version 5.012

Code:

/*

Desciption:
Cycles Alarm1 and Alarm2 LEDs ON/OFF every 5 seconds using Timer1 interrupt

*/

#include <16f887.h>
#fuses HS,NOPROTECT,NOPUT,NOBROWNOUT,NOLVP,NOFCMEN,NOCPD,NOWDT,BORV21
#use delay (clock=20000000)

#use rs232(baud=9600, xmit=PIN_C6, rcv=PIN_C7, stream = RADIO) //Use for radio9600

#define Alarm2_LED    PIN_B0      //Alarm A2
#define Alarm1_LED    PIN_B1      //Alarm A1
#define INTS_PER_SECOND_1 10     //For Timer1  (16 bit)
#define TIME_OUT 5         //5 Second Timeout between ON/OFF LED Cycle

#define FPRINT   //Enable to see effect of fprintf() on GIE bit in INTCON register (Bit 7)



int1 int_flag = FALSE;
int int_count_1 = 0;           // Number of interrupts left before a second has elapsed ==> Timer 1
long seconds_1 = 0;           // A running seconds counter  ==> Timer 1



void main(){

   //Timer1 Setup -- will increment every 1.6us and overflow every 104.85 ms (1.6us*65535) -- set TIME_OUT at 5 (seconds)
   int_count_1 = INTS_PER_SECOND_1;
   setup_timer_1(T1_INTERNAL|T1_DIV_BY_8);
   set_timer1(0);// Set Timer1 to 0
   seconds_1 = 0;////Seconds Counter -- Increments by 1 every 10 (INT_TIMER1)Interrupts   

   //Initialize LEDs and Relays
   output_low(Alarm1_LED);
   output_low(Alarm2_LED);

   enable_interrupts(INT_TIMER1);
   enable_interrupts(GLOBAL);

   //if #define FPRINT -- turns off GIE and does not allow Timer1 interupt
   #ifdef FRINT
   fprintf(RADIO, "ATCN\r");//Send AT Command to Radio
   #endif

   while(1){

      if (int_flag == TRUE){
         output_high(Alarm1_LED);
         output_high(Alarm2_LED);
      }
      else{
         output_low(Alarm1_LED);
         output_low(Alarm2_LED);
      }   
   }

Thanks for the suggestion on the GIE bit -- I think that's it.
Just waiting on CCS to confirm it.
