kbhit problem getting value into main
PostPosted: Tue Sep 26, 2006 3:02 pm     Reply with quote

I am usually a labview programmer (i like the graphica programming better Very Happy ) so I may be doing something really stupid.

I am trying to use the kbhit to determine if a char has been received on the serial port. If one has not, then it should timeout after 5 sec and continue to status 2.

If a char is received and it is A, then the program should go to status 1.

But what I am seeing now if that it will always timeout and will then go to status 1 (which it is defined as at the begining of the program, and is not changed like it should to status 2)

Any help would be appreciated.

Code:
#include "C:\Bradley\solar light dimmer\ld81505.h"
#include <input.c>
#include <math.h>


// The following initializes the first 4 locations of the data EERPOM
//  using the #ROM directive
#IF defined (__PCM__)
#rom 0x2100={1,2,3,4} //initalizes ROM by inserting 1,2,3,4
#elif defined(__PCH__)
#rom int 0xf00000={1,2,3,4}
#endif

In the posted code, the timed_getc() function is never called.

Also, you don't show your #use rs232() statement, and other CCS
directives (#fuses, etc.).

Here is my .h file
[code]#include <16F877A.h>
#device *=16
#device adc=10
#org 0x1F00, 0x1FFF void loader16F876(void) {} //protect bootloader code for the 8k 16F876/7

#FUSES NOWDT //No Watch Dog Timer
#FUSES HS //High speed Osc (> 4mhz)
#FUSES PUT //Power Up Timer
#FUSES NOPROTECT //Code not protected from reading
#FUSES NODEBUG //No Debug mode for ICD
#FUSES NOBROWNOUT //No brownout reset
#FUSES LVP //Low Voltage Programming on B3(PIC16) or B5(PIC18)
#FUSES NOCPD //No EE protection
#FUSES NOWRT //Program memory not write protected

#use delay(clock=20000000)
#use rs232(baud=9600,parity=N,xmit=PIN_C6,rcv=PIN_C7,bits=8)
#use fixed_io(c_outputs=Pin_C0, PIN_C1)



In order to call the timed_getc(), should i use a different vairble say b (which is a char) and use b = timed_getc() in the main do an if else, if b = 'A' go to status 1 and else go to status 2??

Thanks for your help.
