ball and balancer c code:))
PostPosted: Thu May 13, 2010 3:21 pm     Reply with quote

Guys I wrote the code but there is a problem. Anybody help me the solve this problem? Sensor did just read between 1630 and 1620 hence did not read other distance so servo motor did not move. And sensor just read center of the beam. What can I do? When I increase the ustlimit and decrease the altlimit, sensor is read but servo motor not balance the ball, just go forward and back.
Code:

#include<16F877A.h>
#fuses HS, NOWDT, NOPROTECT, NOLVP
#use delay (clock=20000000)
#use rs232(baud=19200,xmit=PIN_C6,rcv=PIN_C7)

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <input.C>

#use fast_io(B)
#use fast_io(D)

#org 0x1F00,0x1FFF{}
#opt 9


void main(){
   //define your variables here;
   long Kp,Kd,duty,ustlimit,altlimit,i;
   long time;
   long time1;
   long timeold;
   
   Kp=0.01;
   Kd=10;
   ustlimit=1630;
   altlimit=1620; // these are the limit for the center which the sensor when the read this do nothing in order to stop ball.
   
   set_tris_d(0b00000001);
   
   setup_timer_1(T1_INTERNAL|T1_DIV_BY_1);

printf("Program Starts!!!\n\r");

   while(TRUE){
   delay_ms(1);
   //////////*setting the US sensor*////////
   set_tris_b(0b00000000);
   output_high(PIN_B6);
   delay_us(5);
   output_low(PIN_B6);
   set_tris_b(0b01000000);
   /////////////////////////////////////////
   
   ////////////*calculating the duration////
   delay_us(500);
   while (!input(PIN_B6)){ };
   set_timer1(0);
   while (input(PIN_B6)){ };
   time1 = get_timer1();
   time=time1/4.3; // =1625 // when the sensor read some values such as 6000/4.3 = any result so this resault will be used in if
   delay_us(5);
   
  timeold=time;
   printf("%lu\n\r",time);
   /////////////////////////////////////////////////
   
    if (time<ustlimit && time>altlimit ){
    duty=time;
   
    }
    else if (time>ustlimit){
    duty=Kp*(ustlimit-time) + Kd*(timeold-time);
    }
    else if (time<altlimit){
    duty=Kp*(time-altlimit) + Kd*(timeold-time);
    }
   
   printf("-----duty=%lu\n\r",duty);
   
   if (duty<1500) duty=1500;
   if (duty>1700) duty=1700;
   printf("-----duty=%lu\n\r",duty);
   
   for(i=0;i<10;i++)
      {
        output_high(PIN_D7);
        delay_us(duty);
         
        output_d(0);
        delay_ms(20);
      }
     
   //delay_ms(100);
   }
}

Kp=0.01;

A 'long' is an 16-bit unsigned integer in CCS, and it can't hold a floating
point value such as 0.01

did you mean that i have to convert them to float????

Either use floats, or scale everything up by 100 so Kp = 1, Kd = 1000, etc. Scaling requires more programmer thought, but less CPU power.
