| Problem with getc() |

Why I can't get any character through rs232 ?
| Code: |
#include <16f84a.h>
#fuses NOWDT
#use delay(clock=4M)
#use rs232(baud=9600, xmit=PIN_b0,rcv=PIN_b1)
void main()
{
while (true)
{
putc(getc());
delay_ms(100);
}
} |
When I press some letter on my keyboard, I get nothing on the screen.
Maybe there is something wrong in my code.
I test it on ISIS Proteus. |

The most likely reason is that Proteus doesn't support software "bit banging" serial communications.
Change to a PIC that has a hardware UART, connect to the UART pins,
and try again. For example, 16F88, or 16F887. |

I don't see the advantage for this board in fielding Proteus questions.
First the issues appear to give the benefit of doubt to Proteus and pass the issue as a probable CCS compiler error. These Proteus false negatives toward CCS call into question the quality of the CCS Compiler. Establishing that Proteus is the issue does nothing since Proteus probably doesn't accept bug reports from this board. Sure the questioner can always pull the wool over our eyes and say there is a real PIC and circuitry but that dishonesty shouldn't mean that this board accepts the diversion a blatant Proteus question creates for this board. |
