Cytron Technical Forum

I just bought this kit PR12 and encounter an error during build the sample code and the error shows as below:
HI-TECH C PRO for the PIC10/12/16 MCU family (Lite) V9.65 Copyright (C) 1984-2009 HI-TECH SOFTWARE (1273) Omniscient Code Generation not available in Lite mode (warning)
Error [1347] ; 0. can't find 0xA56 words (0xa56 withtotal) for psect "text184" in segment "CODE" (largest unused contiguous range 0x800)
********** Build failed! **********
I do see someone post the same failure in product enquiry page too but Cytron said want to upgrade the code.

Can some help to solve this problem, I newbie just going to start the PIC and this is my first kit I bought.

Thanks.

We have compile the same source code from website and everything is okey. No error while compile the source code. Below is sample of result after we build the source code.

Memory Summary:
Program space used 13CEh ( 5070) of 2000h words ( 61.9%)
Data space used 35h ( 53) of 170h bytes ( 14.4%)

Running this compiler in PRO mode, with Omniscient Code Generation enabled,
produces code which is typically 52% smaller than in Lite mode.
The HI-TECH C PRO compiler output for this code could be 2636 words smaller.

Can you download the source code once again and try to compile it. Hopefully it will success. Make sure MPLAB 8.30 and Hi-Tech C PRO is used. Thanks..

I do aware that the source code had been updated after you reply. Hence, thanks for the reply by the way how to used the PICKit2 to program the chip through PR12 board?
Thanks.

engkiang WROTE:how to used the PICKit2 to program the chip through PR12 board?

If you have a PICkit2, you should have PICkit2 schematic. Then you can refer to the schematic given in PR12's Useful Doc section. There's a UIC00A Programmer Connector. Connect PICkit2 programming connector to PR12 programmer connector with the correct pins.

Thanks for the info.

Hi,
I just downloaded the PR12 source code from Cytron website. I'm tried to compile the source code and faced these error message from MPLAB

Error [192] E:\PIC Projects\Cytron DIY Projects\Display Real Time Clock (RTC) on LCD\PR12 Source Code\i2c.c; 115.8 undefined identifier "RW"
Error [192] E:\PIC Projects\Cytron DIY Projects\Display Real Time Clock (RTC) on LCD\PR12 Source Code\i2c.c; 234.8 undefined identifier "RW"

I'm totally no ideal of this error message and don't know how to fix it. I would like to request help to fix this error.
I'm using MPLAB v8.83 with HITECH C Compiler PRO mode v9.83.
Thanks.

Thanks for sharing.

However the new MPLAB X IDE has a "config word generation" module - just select the option register below (master clear on/off, Brownout on/off...) and you can paste the generated config words macro into your code.

Thanks ABSF for the post. Finally the build was successfull by replace RW to R_W. Even the build was successfull but there are errors occur during building the project. Does the error giving any problem?
