RS232 interrupt problem
PostPosted: Sat Feb 25, 2012 11:20 am     Reply with quote

Hi everyone,
I have been trying this for a while but its not working, I know there will be very small mistake, but can't figure it out.

I am making a remote control lamp, that turns on, when I transmit a signal, off when I do it again. Same signal for on and off.
Code:

#include <16F877.H>
#fuses HS, NOWDT, NOBROWNOUT, NOPROTECT
#use delay(clock=20000000)
#use rs232(baud=9600, xmit=PIN_C6, rcv=PIN_C7)

int flag=2;
int q=0,a=0,b=0;
char Rcv;

ser(){
   output_low(pin_e1);delay_ms(200);output_high(pin_e1);
   delay_ms(500);
//if (Rcv=='Q'){
   if(flag==1){    //new   q==0
   output_high(pin_b7);
   a=1;}
   
   if (flag==2) {    //new q==1
   output_low(pin_b7);
   b=1;
   }
//}
//if(a==1){
//q=1;a=0;}
//if(b==1){
//q=0;b=0;}

delay_ms(5000);
}

#INT_RDA       //serial interrupt: when data available at serial pin of PIC
void SerialInt()
{
   Rcv=getchar(); //a loop that stores data from serial
//   output_low(pin_e1);delay_ms(200);output_high(pin_e1);
   delay_ms(500);
   if(flag==1){  //new
   flag=2;}  //new
   else if(flag==2){  //new
   flag=1;}  //new
   ser();
}

void main (){
enable_interrupts(global);     //defines that all interrupts are global
enable_interrupts(int_rda);     // serial data interrupt
//printf("hello");
//output_high(pin_e1);
output_low(pin_b7);
while(1){
output_high(pin_e1);
}
}

When I connect the hardware, it only turns on, never turns off. I checked the hardware, no faults, maybe code is the problem.

two items

1) add 'errors' to the use RS232(...) options....

2) get RID of all the delays inside the ISR ! You've got at least a 6 SECOND delay inside the ISR effectively killing the program.

Take a look at the examples CCS supplies in the examples folder( ex_sisr.c , I think..) for ISR type serial input.

If you're still 'lost' consider simple 'inline' code, without using ISR.

Thanks, actually i added delay because i want it to take single input at a time, i will remove it anyway.

Just receive characters in the ISR.
Then in the main code, toggle your pin, wait, etc..
So:
Code:

#include <16F877.H>
#fuses HS, NOWDT, NOBROWNOUT, NOPROTECT
#use delay(clock=20000000)
#use rs232(baud=9600, xmit=PIN_C6, rcv=PIN_C7, ERRORS)

char Rcv=0;
#define OFF (0)
#define ON (1)

#INT_RDA       //serial interrupt: when data available at serial pin of PIC
void SerialInt(void) {
   Rcv=getchar(); //a loop that stores data from serial
}

void main(void ){
   int1 state=OFF;
   enable_interrupts(global);     //defines that all interrupts are global
   enable_interrupts(int_rda);     // serial data interrupt
   output_low(PIN_B7);
   output_high(PIN_E1);
   while(1){
      switch (state) {
      case OFF:
           if (Rcv) {
              //Here character has been received
              output_high(PIN_B7)
              delay_ms(5500); //delay before next change is allowed
              Rcv=0; //any characters received will be thrown away
              state=ON;
           }
           break;
      case ON:
           if (Rcv) {
              //again character now received
              output_low(PIN_B7);
              delay_ms(5500);
              Rcv=0;
              state=OFF;
           }
           break;
       }
   }
}


All this does is sits looping, waiting for a character to arrive. When it does, it toggles pin B7, waits 5.5 seconds, then throws away any characters receives, and starts waiting again.

Hopefully gives an idea of how to handle what you want.

Best Wishes
