Incomplete Help file?
PostPosted: Mon Jul 27, 2009 8:41 pm     Reply with quote

I just recently started using CCS and PCWHD, so I may be missing something obvious, but the help file seems incomplete. I'm trying to find some information about the set_power_pwm0_duty() built-in function. It's referenced in the "Motor Control PWM" help article and is mentioned a few times on these forums. It seems like there should be a couple X_power_pwm_X() functions listed in the help file, yet I see none.

Is there any place I can get some more info about these functions?

Thanks! That has the info I need for using the functions, however these functions don't seem to be in my compiler. I used this example code from the help file:
Code:
setup_power_pwm(PWM_CLOCK_DIV_4 | PWM_FREE_RUN | PWM_DEAD_CLOCK_DIV_4,1,10000,1000,0,1,0);

This gave me the following error "Undefined identifier -- setup_power_pwm". The help file doesn't mention any needed include files for this function. Does anybody know how I can actually use these functions?

Post your PIC and your compiler version.

The PIC is the dsPIC30f4011 and my compiler version is 4.095.

Is that function listed in the .h file for the PIC ? (I don't have PCD,
now that I know what PIC you're using).

The PCD manual lists special motor control PWM functions, such
as setup_motor_pwm(). I believe those are the ones you should
be using. Look in this section of the PCD manual:
