communication between 18F452 (Master) & 16F877 (Slave)
PostPosted: Sat Jul 21, 2007 12:22 am     Reply with quote

I am having problems in creating a communication link between 18F452 (the Master) & 16F877 (The Slave).

As mentioned before one of my constraints is that I can’t use any interrupt based routine as they are being used by other components.

A brief description of the project is that the master asks the slave to send in the GPS data by putting logic ‘1’on the Pin RTR. The slave after reading the data from GPS sees this flag and goes into the routine of sending the data to the master. Now to ensure that the data received by the master is correct or not, the master sends the data back to the slave, who compares the received data with the data sent. I am trying to use the same pins for data Rx & Tx, so I am changing the pins direction for Rx/Tx.

I have succeeded in developing the data sending mechanism from Slave to Master. The data received is then displayed on the port which always seems to be correct.

The problem is that the data sending back does not work properly.

The debugging has showed that the pins direction gets properly sets but after that the program does not function as it should. The pins do not get the logic levels of 1 & 0 and hence get stuck.

The code segment given below does not function:

Code:
PORTD=0;   
   SET_TRIS_D(SysTx); // set the direction for Tx
   delay_ms(5);   
   CHK=Hi;
delay_ms(5);
   DTR=Hi;
delay_ms(5);   
PORTB=0xFF;   
   while (Go1==Lo);   


Below is the complete listing, I am desperately needing help...

==========Code for master========================

#bit DTR = PORTD.0 // Data Terminal Ready (in)
#bit CLK = PORTD.1 // Clock (in)
//PIN_D2 is used for Rx/Tx // Data in/out (in/out)
#bit GO1 = PORTD.3 // Data Read (in/out)
