Re: 2008 Default Code?

"The Beans" (Los Frijoles) is correct, this years code is the same as last years. Autonomous = Hybrid mode.

Now there is an alternative for the code this year.
Kevin Watson has released a version that is essentially a replacement for the default code, and in my opinion, is WAY BETTER and EASIER to FOLLOW and UNDERSTAND. It was specifically written for MPLAB 8.0 and C18 v 3.10. He has also just released a version that is modified to work with C18 v 2.4 that you should already have. All of this can be found in this thread.
It is available on the first page, but read the entire thread. You may want to upgrade to the newer MPLAB and C18, those links are there as well. Please read the entire thread as it shows experiences people have had installing it and some of the common problems and solutions to they have come across.
Lastly, please remember, Kevin's code is currently experimental and not guaranteed not to have bugs, but it is Kevin Watson's code, meaning, it is really good!!!
