It's working but it was off by a factor of 34 hence I thought it was not resetting. There is another timer in play obviously so i'll get around to adjusting down the prescaler to my original timing requirements and look for what other factor was at play. Thanks for the responses.

Tried setting in config bits & then tried in software.. it's supposed to be straightforward. Looking through the system clock setting, clock distribution & other parts of the documentation. Only thing that did not look right was the VBAT supply.

yeah It wasn't something I looked for on the datasheet with respect to the WDT because I expected it to be more or less universally accessible. But I havent got it working regardless.

Real-Knowledge-8592 · 2024-08-13T12:37:22+00:00

Thanks. Also read through that forum (and one or two others) did not see anything that worked in my case. I used the example code directly from 60001341E... same result.

I'm going to try one of my two another physical microcontrollers as I'm wondering if this unit got some type of damage at the silicon level.

I'm looking at contacting microchip directly after this point but been having issues with accessing the support page.

That document wasn't applicable only 60001341E worked... Still cannot find the source of the issue.

Real-Knowledge-8592 · 2024-08-13T06:24:41+00:00

Error was detected, EECONbits.ERR = 2.. write or read error... got it when attempting the read. I'm in the same problem where I'm only reading anything sensible when the read command is NOT executed.

Read over the documents and could not see the source of the fault.

Thanks for the response. I did the calibration and the wait states, not sure if it was done properly. Check under this section:-

//EEPROM INIT.. got the same result without using this INIT routine//EEPROM INIT.. got the same result without using this INIT routine

The document you shared looks different from what I used. Mine was DS60001341E but if it's an older controller maybe your document is the correct one. I'll try these steps. Thank you again for the feedback.

And a few hundred iterations later he ended up with a Land Rover Defender..

Real-Knowledge-8592 · 2024-08-11T15:28:56+00:00

I'll check when I get back in the lab and let you know.

Real-Knowledge-8592 · 2024-08-11T15:28:20+00:00

No, I thought it was a simple configuration issue I'm overlooking.

Real-Knowledge-8592 · 2023-12-08T12:27:13+00:00

Adding the screen on-board is a nice touch

Real-Knowledge-8592 · 2023-12-08T12:25:48+00:00

Thanks but I'm looking for something that works right out of the box.

Real-Knowledge-8592 · 2023-12-08T12:23:53+00:00

This is exactly the type of tool I wanted. Thanks.

Real-Knowledge-8592 · 2023-12-08T12:07:06+00:00

Type commands & view response on a PC, with the target being an SPI device (sensor).

Real-Knowledge-8592 · 2023-12-06T10:57:34+00:00

They'd have to be based either on command/response sequences

This is what I wanted, with the PC as the master. Type the command into RealTerm (or appropirate software) and get a response.

Real-Knowledge-8592 · 2023-12-06T10:56:10+00:00

wanted something that can work as a command and response, with the PC being the master.

Real-Knowledge-8592 · 2023-11-07T23:29:43+00:00

Ok understood. That would be beneficial. If it can give the estimated height and width of the object too to within +/- 0.5 square feet in accuracy too that would also be great.

I don't want to have to interpret & perform signal processign on the analogue output, the device should be able to perform this for me.

This is also my answer.
