JF1980 0 Posted August 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2008 Tracked it down to a 7-segment connection. Very strange as the manual and silk screen give conflicting information. Major progress to report. As soon as I sorted this out I verified that my interrupt driven RX interface works! Flicking the gear switch on my transmitter alternates GP1 between 0 and 5v. I'm not sure how stable the PWM readings are as I have no way of seeing them, however it seems they are fit for purpose. I really want to thank you guys for your help. This has been a big step and I can't wait to knock out a PCB and get those navi lights installed! For future projects, in order to increase the resolution could I wait for 1uS then clear the timer and start measuring? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr.RC-Cam 129 Posted August 24, 2008 Report Share Posted August 24, 2008 Glad to hear it is all sorted out. I didn't quite understand the question about the 1uS wait. But, just keep at it and all the little things will become clearer to you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Terry 5 Posted August 24, 2008 Report Share Posted August 24, 2008 I think he means 1mS as thats what I do so the answer is yes. Terry Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Terry 5 Posted August 24, 2008 Report Share Posted August 24, 2008 You can also use that 1mS for the pic to reject any pulses that are too short. Terry Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But you had it already done ( with 12F675 !!! and PCB draw. + parts placement ) in RC Groups Forum DIY section ...

JF1980 0 Posted February 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 ? Just understood what you meant. I think you missed the point of this project. It was for me to learn how to interface a PIC and R/C system using MikroC. Sure I could have just copied someone else's design and code but that would have defeated the point. I could have saved the effort and brought a set off eBay for £10 if all I wanted were NAV lights Quote Link to post Share on other sites
