16F877A : TMR1L/H, can not load values inside with sprintl

Submitted by ERIC_O on

Has somebody an idea, a suggestion in order to help me ?

PIC 16F877A > Hereunder the code consisting of driving two servomotors separately for a 2 axes pan tilt.

TMR2 : for 20 mS period

TMR1 : for Ton UPPER servomotor

TMR0 : for Ton LOWER servomotor

I deleted the code consisting of driving LOWER servomotor because it’s works properly.

For UPPER servomotor, the 16 bits data in consigne_1 never loads in both 8 bits registers TMR1L and TMR1H when troobleshooting and monitoring them with Debugger of MikroC For PIC. Both registers are empty. In that case servo never turns.

 

Code :

 

unsigned int consigne_1;

unsigned char *p1;

volatile unsigned char flag_TMR1;

 

// Timer2 (8 bits) : 20 mS period

// Prescaler 1:16

// Postscaler 1:5

// PR2 preload = 250

// TMR2 preload = 0

// Interrupt time : 20,005 mS

 

void Init_Timer2()

{

 // Timer 2 in timer mode :

 T2CON = 0x26;

 PR2 = 250;

 TMR2IE_bit = 1;

 INTCON = 0xC0;

}

 

// Timer1 (16 bits) : Ton servomotor UPPER

// Prescaler 1:1

// TMR1 preload = 64536

// Interrupt time : 1 mS

 

void Init_Timer1()

{

 // Timer 1 in timer mode :

 T1CON = 0x01;

 TMR1IF_bit = 0;       

 TMR1H = 0xFC;

 TMR1L = 0x18;

 TMR1IE_bit = 1;

 INTCON = 0xC0;

 flag_TMR1 = 1;

}

 

// Timer0 (8 bits) : Ton servomotor LOWER

// Prescaler 1:1

// TMR0 Preload = 156

// Interrupt Time : 0,1 mS (100 uS)

 

void Init_Timer0()

{

 // Timer 0 in timer mode :

 OPTION_REG = 0x88;

 TMR0 = 156;

 INTCON = 0xA0; 

 cnt0 = 0;

}
