 Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me. |

Is there any way to find out which version of MM+ firmware is running from within the program? http://rittle.org -------------- |

PRINT MM.VER says 5.01 on my board, not 5.1... Is that normal? http://rittle.org -------------- |

Yes. From MM Manual p50 Regards Michael EDIT: BTW. Is there already a way to do a (soft-)reset? Something like CPU RESTART but with the startup banner. ‚My name is Ozymandias, king of kings Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!‘ Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and ... |

No, not that I can think of. But CPU RESTART does the same thing as cycling the power (except for the banner). Geoff Graham - http://geoffg.net |

@Geoff, thanks for clarifying this! There is also no "unofficial code" for this purpose known? Eg something like a unexpected error which leads to a reset. Michael ‚My name is Ozymandias, king of kings Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!‘ Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and ... |

No, that is trapped on startup and an error message is displayed instead of the banner. Why is the banner so important? Geoff Graham - http://geoffg.net |

Only way i can think of is to connect a pin to MCLR and drive it low. It will cost you a pin, but it will certainly work. Oh,wait. What about WATCHDOG 1? Microblocks. Build with logic. |

That's nothing I cannot live with.  But I would prefer to see the banner after a reset. Makes the status more clearly - for me!
I'm often using more than one MM (different MMBasic versions) at the same time. Michael ‚My name is Ozymandias, king of kings Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!‘ Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and ... |

"connect a pin to MCLR and drive it low.": that's a HARDreset. I use that often. "WATCHDOG 1" gives you Thanks MB. Michael Edit I would prefer a "verbose mode" for the cpu restart command (CPU RESTART V). ‚My name is Ozymandias, king of kings Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!‘ Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and ... |
