RS232 problem
PostPosted: Thu Sep 11, 2008 4:47 am     Reply with quote

Hi
I m tring to send data from controller to PC using PIC16F877A
& MAX232 firt i try just by sending "hello world" to PC using hyper
terminal,
I made the following code but dit does not work.

Code:


#include <16F877A.h>
#device adc=8

#FUSES NOWDT                    //No Watch Dog Timer
#FUSES XT                       //Crystal osc <= 4mhz
#FUSES PUT                      //Power Up Timer
#FUSES NOPROTECT                //Code not protected from reading
#FUSES NODEBUG                  //No Debug mode for ICD
#FUSES NOBROWNOUT               //No brownout reset
#FUSES NOLVP                    //No low voltage prgming, B3(PIC16) or B5(PIC18) used for I/O
#FUSES NOCPD                    //No EE protection
#FUSES NOWRT                    //Program memory not write protected

#use delay(clock=20000000)
#use rs232(baud=9600,parity=N,xmit=PIN_C6,rcv=PIN_C7,bits=8)

void main()
{

   setup_adc_ports(NO_ANALOGS);
   setup_adc(ADC_OFF);
   setup_psp(PSP_DISABLED);
   setup_spi(FALSE);
   setup_timer_0(RTCC_INTERNAL|RTCC_DIV_1);
   setup_timer_1(T1_DISABLED);
   setup_timer_2(T2_DISABLED,0,1);
   setup_comparator(NC_NC_NC_NC);
   setup_vref(FALSE);

   // TODO: USER CODE!!
while (TRUE)
{
     
     printf("Hello World: \r\n");
   
     delay_ms(1000);
     
}}



is the code correct if not what will be the other possibilities to make it work
i have checked the hardware connections
i connect PIN 25 (TX) of controller to PIN 11 of MAX, PIN26 (RX) of
controller to PIN 12 of MAX on the other side on RS232 connector PIN 2 to 14 of MAX & PIN 3 to 13 of MAX & PIUN 5 ground.

What do you see on pin RC7 when you look at it with a scope?

What clock are you using???
i noticed that you are using an XT clock which should be less then 4Mhz
but in the code you are using #use delay(clock=20000000)
This will not work if you are using XT clock
Try it and let me know

Change this:
Quote:
#FUSES XT //Crystal osc <= 4mhz


to this:
#FUSES HS

and try again.
