| PCD bootloader and PWM issues [solved] |

Actually this is a follow up of a PWM issue I had yesterday and Ttelmah helped me to sort it out for a CCS 5.077 and PIC24FJ128GC006 platform. Burning this hex directly to the chip I have no issues with PWM and LED toggling.
| Code: |
#include <24FJ128GC006.h>
#DEVICE CONST=READ_ONLY
#device ADC=12
//#include <pcd_bootloader.h>
#FUSES FRC_PLL, PLL2, NOPROTECT, NOWDT, NOWRT, NODEBUG
#USE delay(internal=8MHZ, clock=32MHz)
#pin_select OC1 = PIN_B4 // PWM out 4khz
void set_test_pwm (void) { // 4kHz for 50% DC
setup_compare(1,COMPARE_PWM_EDGE | COMPARE_SYSTEM_CLOCK | COMPARE_TRIG_SYNC_SELF);
set_pwm_period(1,4000);
set_pwm_duty(1,2000);
}
void main()
{
set_test_pwm();
while (1) {
output_toggle(pin_G9); // toggle LED
delay_ms(500);
}
} |
Now, having the pcd bootloader loaded for this chip and compiling <pcd_bootloader.h> in the above, LED will still toggle but PWM disappeared.
The bootloader works for my project (2k+ lines), so this is when I stumbled adding the PWM to it and not have it working and forcing me to simplify and find the cause. Any suggestions much appreciated,
thanks |

while I don't use that PIC, perhaps increasing the Stack size will help. That seems to be one answer common to 'it worked yesterday but now....' problems.
At least it's easy to do/test/confirm/deny....

I tried it up to 1024 but no luck.

Just to confirm that PWM does not work for both serial RS232 and USB bootloader. Are somehow the PWM related functions overlapping with the bootloader?!
thanks |

First obvious thing is fuses.
Remember your fuses in your code _do nothing_ when you are using a bootloader. You are running with the fuses the bootloader sets.
I personally prefer to have my main code using #FUSES NONE, and put a remark block like:
| Code: |
#fuses NONE
/* FUSES in bootloader:
FUSES xxxxxx //whatever they are...
*/
|
Now if (for instance) the IOL1WAY fuse is set in the bootloader (check the .lst file since it may be set by default), then the #PIN SELECT in your run time code won't be able to program the pin, since it will have been locked by the bootloader code.... |

| Thank you Ttelmah, it was IOL1WAY fuse set by default in the bootloader. |
