when i test the program using LED there are different when using

      Motor_Left_Front = 1;
         Motor_Left_Back = 0;
         Motor_Right_Front = 1;
         Motor_Right_Back = 0;


with

CODE: SELECT_ALL_CODE

      PORTD = 0b00000101


the different it the LED Brightness, when using PORTD = 0b00000101 the LED more brightness, the voltage between both command is different about 1.0 to 1.5v

Some of my friend said used
#define Motor_Left_Front LATDbits.LATD0
#define Motor_Left_Back LATDbits.LATD1
#define Motor_Right_Front LATDbits.LATD2
#define Motor_Right_Back LATDbits.LATD3
#define Motor_Driver_Active LATDbits.LATC4

what are different between them???

Can you at least describe what your program is doing ? Which part of your program is not working ? The ultra-sonic part or the motor control part ? And what do you suspect is wrong.......

I am sure nobody here have time to read through the whole program for you. So please help us to help you!

What my program doing is to detect distance using HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Sensor but it seem not working. even there are change in distance, the CCPR1 value didn't change at all, so it must have problem on hardware or it's programming. to say hardware problem maybe not, cuz the ultra sonic sensor is new one.. just try with all ultrasonic sensor that i have even with "PING))) from parallax"

i thought it was problem with the CCP1 port. there are a ways to check whether that port is working or not working???
Even i change the PIC still same...

What is the freq. of your crystal osc? I only know HS.
What is the distance in cm are you expecting to measure?
Where did you connect the pins trig and echo of your ultra sonic to?
What does the timer1 interrupt do in your program?

   {
      CCP1CON = 0x05;
      T3CON = 0x00;

      TRISD = 0x00;
      TRISCbits.TRISC2 = 1;
      TRISCbits.TRISC1 = 0;
      TRISBbits.TRISB0 = 0;
      CCPR1L = 0x00;
      CCPR1H = 0x00;
      INTCONbits.GIE = 1;
      INTCONbits.PEIE = 1;
      PIE1bits.CCP1IE = 1;
      PIE1bits.TMR1IE = 1;
      PIR1bits.TMR1IF = 0;      
      while(1)
      {
         TMR1L = 0;
         TMR1H = 0;
         outOfRange = 0;
         CCP1CONbits.CCP1M0 = 1;
         PIR1bits.CCP1IF = 0;
         PORTBbits.RB1 = 1;
         Delay10TCYx(10);
         PORTBbits.RB1 = 0;
         while(PIR1bits.CCP1IF == 0);
         T1CONbits.TMR1ON = 1;
         CCP1CONbits.CCP1M0 = 0;
         PIR1bits.CCP1IF = 0;

There is no comment at all in the above code. I am not that familiar with 18F4580. Would you please have the curtesy to insert them? Or else only you alone can understand your program...

Do you have something like LCD or UART terminal to display the contents of Timer value or the distance? In other words, how did you debug your program?

Im using Standard SK40C form cytron so OSC it will be 20MHz
what i want from ultrasonic is when distance 1m it will perform avoiding program...
I Connect the trig pin at "PORTDbits.RD0" and Echo pin at "PORTCbits.RC2/CCP1".

My program above it Converting Form Pulsin() program from BasicStamp By doing some research. but not converting all of them..
What pulsin do form my research is set CCP1 to Scan change form LOW-High signal ,when it detect High of Echo pin then it start Timer1 then it change the CCP1 to detect HIGH-LOW Signal, after it detect echo signal High-Low the timer 1 is Stop. sooo TMR1 address is storing number of tick of echo signal.. using datasheet and calculation (145 tick = 1cm). when the Timer1 is overflow it will set the sensor is out of range then break;

I dont used LCD or UART to display i only Used LED as Moniter. to check i just send TMR1H:TMR1L to PORTA:PORTB that have Connection With LED but that i see at LED No change in TMR1 address value even sensor is away or close obsticle

Using Ultrasonic with PIC18 is so hard now my robot only used Longrange IR as sensor

or if someone have PIC18 program for Ultrasonic Sensor PING))) Parallax can post here
soo i dont know what to do T_T

[ABSF]

CCP1CON = 0x05;

You're using capture mode to detect L-H transition on RC2, right?

I Connect the trig pin at "PORTDbits.RD0" and Echo pin at "PORTCbits.RC2/CCP1".

But I dont see any thing about RD0 in your program. Instead, from your software, the trig pulse is from RB1.

PORTBbits.RB1 = 1;
         Delay10TCYx(10);
         PORTBbits.RB1 = 0;

HC-SR04 timing chart

A short ultrasonic pulse is transmitted at the time 0, reflected by an object. The senor receives this signal and converts it to an electric signal. The next pulse can be transmitted when the echo is faded away. This time period is called cycle period. The recommend cycle period should be no less than 50ms. If a 10μs width trigger pulse is sent to the signal pin, the Ultrasonic module will output eight 40kHz ultrasonic signal and detect the echo back. The measured distance is proportional to the echo pulse width and can be calculated by the formula above. If no obstacle is detected, the output pin will give a 38ms high level signal.
Library:

This is the timing chart and quote are from the datasheet of the ultra-sonic.

1. I would suggest to add 2 uS of logic LOW on the Trig pin before the 10uS HIGH.

2. Your calculation on the distance in cm is not correct too. You divide the content of CCPR1 register by 72.5. The CCPR1 did not hold the amount in uS but 200nS because you're using 20MHz crystal. t=(1/(20/4))=0.2 uS

3. You said you displayed the contents of Timer1 in PORTA and PORTB using LEDs. But at which point you did it is not mentioned in your software. And I doubted the content of timer1 is correct at that moment.

4. May be you can modify your software just to detect the H-L change of Echo pin and forget about the L-H transition. From the graph, we dont know how much time is taken between the "Trig pulse end" to the "begin of Echo pulse".

5. Even if your timer1 overflow at the count of 0xFFFF, that's only 65536/5=13.107mS. Still a long way from the 38mS as suggest by the datasheet.

If my above calculation is wrong, please do let me know cos I am also learning about this HC-SR04 thing and I dont have a 18F4580 to try on my SK40C.

ermmm Maybe I try create the program again about CCP1 port i already set it correctly first setting to detect L-H then start the Timer1 then Setting The CCP1 Port to Detect H-L then stop the timer1. that programming process flow is correct.. maybe it about the Timer1 it self =.= wrong setting with it prescale value is not correct here =.=

Using Basic Stamp really easy with this but using PIC hahaha feel like to smash my head at the wall

i try using different prescale value and asking for help again

Basic Stamp is using BASIC. A better example is to use a C example like Arduino here:

Arduino Ultrasonic Ranging With HC-SR04 | ITead Studio
http://iteadstudio.com/application-note ... h-hc-sr04/

I also read in the datasheet that CCP1 will send a reset signal to Timer1 when a CCP1 interrupt occurs, after transferring the contents of Timer1 registers to CCP1 registers.
