Help. Why does this program print garbage? |

This program prints the required values and also lot of garbage. The printf works without problems for the below line:
printf("Hello World");
PCWHD ver 4.108.
Thanks for any HELP.
Code: |
#include <main.h>
int32 Ticker;
int16 bres;
void do_1sec_event()
{
Ticker++;
if (Ticker > 21600000) {Ticker = 0;}
}
#int_TIMER1
void TIMER1_isr()
{
bres += 65536; // add 65536 ticks to bresenham total
if(bres >= 1000000) // if reached 1 second!
{
bres -= 1000000; // subtract 1 second, retain error
do_1sec_event(); // update clock, etc
}
}
void main()
{
setup_spi(SPI_SS_DISABLED);
setup_timer_0(RTCC_INTERNAL|RTCC_DIV_1);
setup_timer_2(T2_DISABLED,0,1);
setup_ccp1(CCP_OFF);
setup_comparator(A0_VR_A1_VR);
setup_vref(VREF_LOW | 12);
setup_timer_1( T1_INTERNAL | T1_DIV_BY_1 );
enable_interrupts( INT_TIMER1 );
enable_interrupts( GLOBAL );
Do
{
printf("%lu\r\n",Ticker);
}while(1);
}

This code works. But Still prints garbage now and then. |

Code: |
#include <main.h>
int32 Ticker=0;
int32 bres=0;
#int_TIMER1
void TIMER1_isr()
{
bres += 65536; // add 65536 ticks to bresenham total
if(bres >= 1000000) // if reached 1 second!
{
bres -= 1000000; // subtract 1 second, retain error
if (Ticker < 21600000) Ticker++;
}
}
void main()
{
setup_spi(SPI_SS_DISABLED);
setup_timer_0(RTCC_INTERNAL|RTCC_DIV_1);
setup_timer_2(T2_DISABLED,0,1);
setup_ccp1(CCP_OFF);
setup_comparator(A0_VR_A1_VR);
setup_vref(VREF_LOW | 12);
setup_timer_1( T1_INTERNAL | T1_DIV_BY_1 );
enable_interrupts( INT_TIMER1 );
enable_interrupts( GLOBAL );
Ticker = 0;
bres = 0;
While(TRUE)
{
printf("TMR1 = %lu\n\r", Ticker);
delay_ms(500);
}
}

A number of things:
1) You don't show your RS232 setup. Is this a hardware RS232, or a software port. If software, the individual characters _will_ get corrupted by interrupts occurring. You need to disable interrupts for each transmitted character (DISABLE_INTS option in the RS232 setup). Doesn't apply if this is a hardware RS232 port.
2) You need to retrieve the 'ticker', then print it. Problem here is that printing is slow, and the printout, will work character by character 'through' the data, which is a changing value, giving garbage.
3) For the same reason, but involving a faster time interval, when you retrieve the ticker, interrupts should be disabled for the transfer.
So, something like:
Code: |
int32 local_ticker;
//Then in the main
Do {
disable_interrupts(GLOBAL);
local_ticker=Ticker;
enable_interrupts(GLOBAL);
printf("%lu\r\n",local_ticker);
} while (TRUE);
