output_high(PIN1, PIN2);

Hello everyone,
How can i output high 2 pins at the same time without using the weight method, this method should call its name not its weight for example (PIN_C0 - PIN_C1), etc

the function should be like this

[Mike Walne]

Please explain EXACTLY what you mean.

1) Do you want to create a function which does the work for you?
2) Will both pins be on the same port?
3) Can the pins go high one after the other?
4) Do you want the actual action to be both pins go high in one machine cycle?
5) ............Anything else

1-both pins will be in the same port
2- i want the actual action to be both go high in one machine cycle
3- the parameter of the function should be(int16 PIN1, int16 PIN2)

Thanks,

quick reply not tested...

One method is to create your own function and use the

CCS function ...output_x( )

inside it.

You'll have to read the port first,then mask that data with your 'pins to set high',then write to the port the new data.
//pseudo code..NOT tested...
my_new_function(int8 pin1,int8 pin2)

old_data=input_b();
my_pin_data= ??code to parse pin1,pin2 into correct format
new_data=old_data | my_pin_data;
output_b(new_data);
//

You'll have to fill in 'my_pin_data' as required.

Depending on the devices attached to the pins, even a simple bit_set() function may work for you, but will take a couple more machine cycles to turn on the pins BUT overall would be much faster.

Unfortunately, to do this using pin names, is going to take longer than using the two separate outputs.

Key is first that the pin number, is the memory address of the physical port, *8, plus the bit number for the pin.
So:

I have developed this method, it is now available in the code library,
