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.

PicoMite, absolutely fabulous, next job making an accurate pedometer.
(the accelerometer should be taped to the big toe for best results)
then no need for complex maths.

I just want a beep, what am I doing wrong. (it's usually me)

setpin gp2,pwm1a
pwm 1,256,50,0

error = 'pin not set for pwm'

also, while I'm at it,

do flag=1
loop until flag

'not a biggie, but be aware

regs Dave
Try swapping 2 and 3 over

1 - Do you set the option power pwm ? (page 57)

2 - Look in the manual 87 page for the pwm configuration.

3 - look in page 92 for the correct setpin with pwm use.

I hope it help you.

Best regards,

You are setting a value (0) for pwm1b. Just omit the ",0"

Re DO, it's not clear what you're seeing or finding a problem with, but you need a ":" after DO.

Perhaps he is expecting an error as WHILE is usually the only thing that can follow DO.
Trapping every possible typo is a bit difficult.
