Thanks for that Chris. I'll study your code and see can I make it work. Regards Dermot

Thank you very much for the info and code. It is more than generous. I'll study what you've given me carefully and I'll also try simply using the pulsout and wait commands as I already have the codes and just want to turn one socket on and off. Thanks again for your help and code.

Thanks for that info.

Hi, I want to try and control a remote 433MHz RF plug with a PIC and cheap transmitter. I’ve searched the forum but couldn’t find anything specific on this question although there is a lot on RF transmission and reception. I have been able to sniff the codes using an Arduino and a library called RCSwitch.h. See the attached file and the raw code here: Decimal: 6725231 (24Bit) Binary: 011001101001111001101111 Tri-State: not applicable PulseLength: 315 microseconds Protocol: 1 Raw data: 9788,204,116,348,468,136,104,80,96,272,364,248,828,332,832,1004,256,960,224,316,888,920,264,244,412,68,408,48,92,236,168,304,240,100,616,108,212,276,84,372,256,72,88,268,76,164,120,224,308,...

Thanks for the help. Really fast response. Great forum. I've donated the £23 for the Pickit Plus even though I don't need it. The free stuff you give is easily worth that. Regards Dermot

Sorry folks. Everything works fine. I had a pull down resistor on my breadboard for GPIO.5 and it was a bit loose. DOH!

Hi, I'm using GCB 6.22.2290 and the 12F683. I need to have two inputs and 4 outputs. I'm using GPIO.5 and GPIO.3 as inputs and GPIO.0, GPIO.1, GPIO.2 amd GPIO.4 as outputs. When I bring an input high I want to get an output to go high. When I do this with GPIO.3 I get one of my outputs to go high no problem. When I do the same thing with GPIO.5 it doesn't work. I think it's because GPIO.5 is a serial in pin as well as an input pin. Is there some command I can use to turn GPIO.5 into an input pin...

I just got back to completing my project and thought I should give a word of warning and a correction to what I wrote about making output pins high and connecting them to V+ and saving myself the use of three resistors. This doesn't work in the long term. I discoverd that although it worked fine the PIC began to get very hot and I'm sure would become damaged after a while.
