send something from master once.
in the slave read buffer full bit until it is 1
then data=SSPBUF
print data

Hi J, [ TRANSMITTER ]

Ok,
I'm sure you're suggesting that PRINT DATA is from the SLAVE, but as mentioned in #139 I doubt that HSEROUT will work in the circumstances.

I will try if BUFFER BIT = 1 then LED = 1, and see what happens.

No LED flash

Here's the 2x programs: Would you proof read them please, as there's been plenty of chances for errors.

Hi J,
With these: I got a hint on MISO.

Hi J,
With these: I got a hint on MISO.

What is the hint?
You can't use spisend, spireceive on the hw slave.
The slave is a passive device. It outputs SSPBUF on masters clock.
Try a small pause between SSPsend and SSPreceive on master

Hi J,
HINT: This is the first time, I've noticed anything on the ANALYSER MISO line.

Ok, I changed SLAVE to this:

I added [ waitms 10 ] in MASTER and only ever see [ 255 ]

If HSEROPEN is stll on the Slave, remove it.

The slave waits for 8 or 9.
What does the master send?

Hi J,
The last MASTER is at # 144.

The slave waits for azilb or azihb. What are they?

Hi J,
The purpose of the SLAVE PIC is to READ an incremental encoder, which it does. The result of that will be 2x BYTEs of AZI (Azimuth) I just used AZILB because it was still there from encoder tests.

NOTE: I've just seen that I asked this question in January
C

 

[jjw]

If SSPBUF = azilb Then <------ what is the value of azilb
SSPBUF = azi.LB
Else
If SSPBUF = azihb Then <------ what is the value azihb
SSPBUF = azi.HB
Endif
Endif

If the master does not send the value of azilb or azihb the program gets never past this.
The naming of variables like azilb, azihb and then using azi.lb azi.hb is confusing.

Edit: found azilib is 1, azihb is 2
Try to send 1 from master, then 2
Show the whole Slave procram.

Hi J,
The MASTER can't SEND the values, because it doesn't know them, as they are generated in SLAVE.

I've tried many variations to get this to work, including your suggestions, so far I don't think anything has gone from SLAVE to MASTER along the MISO track, apart from 255.

SLAVE:
I used AZI as the ENCODER result, being AZIMUTH (=0-359) which is a WORD, and is split into 2x BYTEs, AZI.LB and AZI.HB

Pleas EDIT the programs, and I'l test them, with whatever VARIABLEs you choose.

Here' are the 2x programs:

Surely the master can send anything.
The azilb and azihb have fixed values 1 and 2 in the slave program.
Try SSPSend 1, SSPSend 2
—----------------
From the slave

SLAVE:
Dim azi As Word
Dim azilb As Byte
Dim azihb As Byte
Dim DATA As Byte '??????????????????????????
azilb = 1. -<--------
azihb = 2. <--------

 

[jjw]

Remove this from the master:
azilb = 121
SSPBUF = azilb

Add this:
SSPSend 1.

remove SSPSend azilb

 

[camerart]

Remove this from the master:
azilb = 121
SSPBUF = azilb

Add this:
SSPSend 1.

remove SSPSend azilb

Hi J,
Like this? ( I presume you meant [ SPIsend 1 ] )
Result:
C.

This shows SPIsend 1
Can you show also the result for SPIReceive

Edit: you can shorten waitms 10 to waitus 40 for example, so send an receive fits on the same screen.

I found something interesting in the manual!
After the Slave is selected ( SLAVEpic=0), keep it at 0 permanently.


From the manual:
1.When the SPI is in Slave mode, with
the SS pin control enabled,
(SSPCON<3:0> = 0100), the SPI
module will reset if the SS pin is set to. <<<<< !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
VDD.
2: If the SPI is used in Slave mode with
CKE = 1, then the SS pin control must be
enabled.
3: When the SPI is in Slave mode with SS pin
control enabled (SSPCON<3:0> = 0100),
the state of the SS pin can affect the state
read back from the TRISC<6> bit. The
peripheral OE signal from the SSP module
into PORTC controls the state that is read
back from the TRISC<6> bit (see
Section 11.3 “PORTC, TRISC and LATC
Registers” for information on PORTC). If
Read-Modify-Write instructions, such as
BSF, are performed on the TRISC register
while the SS pin is high, this will cause the
TRISC<6> bit to be set, thus disabling the. . <<<<<<<< !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
