| rs232 character receiving |

hello every one i have no much experience with pic i try to send character (or int) with rs232 to break a while loop , the code is ok except the second while loop that i cant escape
#include <16F84.H>
#use delay(clock=4000000)
#use rs232(baud=9600, xmit=PIN_a0, rcv=PIN_a1)
void main() {
while(1){
char c;
c=getc();
switch (c)
{
case '1':
output_high(pin_b0);
break;
case '4':
output_low(pin_b0);
break;
case '2':
output_high(pin_b1);
break;
case '5':
output_low(pin_b1);
break;
case '3':
output_high(pin_b2);
break;
case '6':
output_low(pin_b2);
break;
case '7':
while(!c == '4')
{output_high(pin_b0);
delay_ms(100);
output_low(pin_b0);
delay_ms(100);}
break;
}
} |

Think about it:
| Code: |
case '7':
while(!c == '4') {
output_high(pin_b0);
delay_ms(100);
output_low(pin_b0);
delay_ms(100);
}
break;
}
|
You execute this code, if c=='7'. Now c therefore is _not_ going to be '4', so the while loop will execute. Inside the while loop, c never changes, so the loop _will_ execute for ever.
If (for instance), you wanted this to execute four times, you would need:
| Code: |
case '7':
for (c=0;c<4;c++) {
output_high(pin_b0);
delay_ms(100);
output_low(pin_b0);
delay_ms(100);
}
break;
}
|
Also learn to use the code buttons, and indentation....
Now if you want the rs232 to 'break' the loop, you need to rethink big time. You are using software RS232. This implies that characters can't signal your code to do anything. Your code needs to _test_ for the characters all the time, and at 9600bps, if data is not going to be missed, the test needs to be at least 20000 times per second. Are you testing inside the delays?. No. Are you testing in the inner while loop?. No. So the characters will be missed.....
It is possible to program what you want, (I think, from your basic description), but involves much more work. A number of possibilities, and all involve more thinking. For example:
| Code: |
int16 ctr;
c=0;
do {
output_high(PIN_B0);
for (ctr=0;ctr<1000;ctr++) {
delay_us(90);
if (kbhit()) {
c=getc();
break;
}
}
if (c!=0) break;
output_low(PIN_B0);
for (ctr=0;ctr<1000;ctr++) {
delay_us(90);
if (kbhit()) {
c=getc();
break;
}
}
} while (c==0);
//You get here if a RS232 character arrives, with the character in c
|
This is about the crudest way, without involving interrupts for either the flashing, or the RS232. You loop in a much faster delay loop (about 100uSec/loop with the increment and test), and if a character is seen (kbhit) fetch it, and exit.

| Sooner or later and most often it is sooner most realize that in order to avoid the dropping of inbound characters an isr driven circular buffer is needed. I'd recommend searching this forum for examples. CCS has a good example of a circular buffer. Now of course this assumes you will use the hardware UART. Again most will use the hardware inside the PIC chip for RS232 since that's what it is there for. |

The PIC16F84(A) has no hardware UART. Receiving serial data is still possible because the CCS compiler will create a software based UART but this comes with limitations:
- No interrupts possible for received data
- Because no interrupts, no background reception of data.
- Data can only be received when getc() is active. This means you have to call kbhit at least ten times the bit rate.
Some people combined the CCS software UART with an interrupt on the RB0/INT pin, then most of the above mentioned limitations are gone. However, because of delays in interrupt handling this only works when your maximum baudrate is about 400 times smaller than your clockspeed. For example at 4MHz the maximum baudrate would be about 10kbaud. ~ 9600baud.
However, best solution in my opinion is to choose another chip with hardware UART. The PIC16F64 is very, very, old. Newer chips are cheaper, use less power and have more options. |

I think you are slightly 'overstating' the speeds necessary.
You can use the INT_EXT triggering getc, up to about 1/120th your clock speed, rather than 1/400th your clock speed. You need to use the 'SAMPLE_EARLY' option. Then the getc, starts reading immediately when you arrive in the interrupt, instead of delaying by 1/2 a bit time, and given the typically 30 instruction times needed to get into an interrupt (120 clock cycles), this allows operation up to about 32Kbaud at 4MHz.
Similarly on how often you need to poll the pin, anything over twice, and preferably at least 3* per bit time is OK, not "ten times bit rate".
However agree wholeheartedly, the hardware UART, is simpler, better, just 1000* simpler, etc. etc...

No interrupts possible for received data

sorry not precisely true -- ther are ways to use int and a defined communication protocol that i did almost 2 years ago , based on the hardware ISR method. i wrote a driver that utilizes the edge interrupt of
B port pins to create an ISR for non hardware rs-232 - and posted here
earlier this year.........
http://www.ccsinfo.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=46369&highlight=
while i agree with the previous post that YES -
it still has the other liabilities of software rs-232 -
a lack of interrupt mediated reception is NOT One of them
if you use host_command --> pic_response protocols - this can work well enough. if data can arrive with really NO warning - then even this will fail you eventually.

hello I made a personal code that is tested, works as follows to send pic [sdfsdfsdvfgsd] know that the pic is shows the string and string. and is equal to an integer and a character.
eg to send the pic -> [c] / / character
-> [125] / / decimal integer 125
-> [Pedro] / / string "Peter"
I hope it is useful, this program is not good because the pic for the cycle.
