Hi....I m new in microcontroller..As a starter i m tring to compile a simple program to turn a led on and off......But everytime i try to build a project it fails...I m following the steps as follows...selecting the device then project wizard>select the device>select the language tool>create a new project>addexisting files (both the asm and linker file)>finish...And after that whenever i go to 'build all' step it fails to build the project....M i doing anything wrong?...I m using MPLAB version 8.00 and this is my program and i m using PIC 16F84.....Can someone help me out here please...thanx a lot

STATUS equ 03h
TRISA equ 85h
PORTA equ 05h
COUNT1 equ 08h
COUNT2 equ 09h

;****Set up the port****

bsf STATUS,5
movlw 00h
movwf TRISA
bcf STATUS,5

;****Turn the LED on****

Start movlw 02h
movwf PORTA

;****Add a delay

call Delay

;****Delay finished, now turn the LED off****

movlw 00h
movwf PORTA

;****Add another delay****

call Delay

;****Now go back to the start of the program

goto Start

;****Here is our Subroutine

Delay

decfsz COUNT1,1
goto Loop1
decfsz COUNT2,1
goto Loop1
return

;****End of the program****

end

M i doing anything wrong?...I m using MPLAB version 8.00
Click to expand...
1. Header file is missing in ur program...Or else u have to specify the library path in Project->build options....(MPLAB version 8.00)
2. u didn't call the Start main routine.. u have to redirect the reset vector and interrupt vector.
3. ur JPG file is not clear i cant able to see the error msg fully

You need to define the code segment or the origin of the code, depending on your project type. Open the template folder in the MPLAB installation folder, there are two types of template files, one called object and the other is code.

Follow the skeleton in the template file, especially the lines that contain CODE statements for object type, or the ORG statement for the code type. These lines tell the compiler where to put the codes you've written.

For object type project, something like:

RESET CODE 0x000
goto main

ISR CODE 0x004
goto isr_handler

MAIN CODE
isr_handler
.... ; interrupt code goes here

main
.... ; your code goes here

For code type project, something like:

ORG 0x000
goto main

ORG 0x004
... ; interrupt code goes here

main
... ; your code goes here

Nothing to worry about. The conventions are the labels are flushed to the left and the instructions are indented from the left margin by using spaces or tabs. These would create a cleaner layout which is easier to work with. That's what those warnings are.

Like the example below:

Rich (BB code): 
lbl_example
        btfss    my_flag, 0
        call     fn_explore
        ....
