Blinking Red Light

[teh_pwnerer795]

Hey,

Code uploads, and works without the camera code..... on the other hand... when the camera code is added.... it'll upload and the program state will blink as well on the I/O...it will flash red on code error.... any hints on why this is happening??

Ps... controller is either 2005, 2006.... doesnt say on controller

you need to find out which controller it is, the camera code uses some libraries that need to be correct for the PIC inside, try reading the txt file included about using a previous years RC and see if that works.

When you run IFI Loader and do a Controller Verify it should tell you what controller it is.

Did you follow all the instructions on using last years RC as I'm pretty sure that you have an 05?

1. Select the correct device from the MPLAB IDE.

Configure->Select Device->PIC18F8520

2. Replace the library file with the appropriate one.

Remove the FRC_Library.lib file and replace it with FRC_Library_8520.lib

or

Remove the FRC_alltimers.lib file and replace it with FRC_alltimers_8520.lib

3. Remove the 18f8722.lkr file and replace it with the 18f8520.lkr file

4. Rebuild your project and download the HEX file to your controller.

There you go
