Older Necto Studio version or older MikroSDK version

[bjlli]

Hey there, I bought a Clicker 2 for PIC18FK, a 4-20mA Receiver Clicker and a RS485 6 Clicker. And I'm not able to use none of these boards with MikroSDK and Necto Studio.

I tried a lot of examples and the only libraries that work are the gpio related. I tried the Hal Pwm library and that's the code that it's suggested in the headers:

/**
* @file main.c
* @brief Main function for pwm-teste application.
*/
#include "board.h"
#include "hal_pwm.h"

int main(void)
{
hal_pwm_t hal_pwm;
hal_pwm_config_t hal_pwm_cfg;
hal_pwm_configure_default( &hal_pwm_cfg );
hal_pwm_cfg.pin = MIKROBUS_1_PWM;
hal_pwm_cfg.freq_hz = 5000;

hal_pwm_open( &hal_pwm->handle, true );

hal_pwm_set_freq( &hal_pwm->handle, hal_pwm_cfg.freq_hz );

hal_pwm_start( &hal_pwm->handle );

hal_pwm_set_duty( &hal_pwm->handle, 0.5 );
/* Replace with your application code */
while (1)
{
}

return 0;
}

Because of the &hal_pwm->handle, i get the error:

Operator '.' is not applicable to these operands '?fake$'
And due to the function hal_pwm_set_freq i get the warning:

Implicit conversion of int to ptr

This warning happens because the second parameter of the hal_pwm_set_freq it's *hal_pwm_config_t not an integer.

I corrected it, but it still doesn't work because of the error above.

This error is common in Hal UART and HAL Spi, I already tested them. I tried to pass the parameters as &str.handle and I tried to use an auxiliary variable, but nothing works. The drivers libraries are called by the Hal ones, so they don't work either as expected.

Is there a way to downgrade MikroSDK version or the Necto Studio for testing? I bought two modules: 4-20mA Receiver and the RS485 6 that I can't even test them because the SPI and UART libraries don't work properly.

Hi,

Try using our example code from Necto Studio, you can find the example code in the Packages section.

As for the RS485 6 click, it is not in Necto Studio at the moment, but you can access the example by downloading it from the link below and then converting it from Memake to Cmake:

You can see how to convert the example in the link below:
