Hello guys,
I am a Belgian maker and I am actually trying to learn how to program
MSP430 in C language. I have read of course some tutorials but I am stuck
with this problem.
I would like to do this :
- If I push the bouton with a timing lesser than 1 second, the RED light
switch on.
- If I push the button with a timing higher than 2 second, the GREEN light
switch on.
- If a LED is switch on, when I push the button, the LED are off.
I tried with this in order to switch on the LED at least but it is not
working.
#include <msp430g2553.h>
void main(void)
{
P1DIR = 0x41;
WDTCTL = WDTPW + WDTHOLD;
P1OUT = 0x00;
BCSCTL2 = SELS;
TA0CTL = MC_1 + TASSEL_2 + TACLR;
CCTL0 = CCIE;
while(1){
if(((P1IN & BIT3) == 0) && (CCR0 <= 32768)) {
P1OUT = 0x40}
else
{
if(((P1IN & BIT3) == 0)) && (CCR0 >= 65536)){
P1OUT=0x01)}}
}
Someone can help me ?
Thanks by advance.

First, whenever you're working with embedded systems, when something doesn't work, _simplify_. You're trying to time things, detect a button press AND turn on a light. Fine. Ditch everything except for turning on the light. If you can run the code and the light comes on, that's not the problem. Then put in just the timing, to try to blink the light. If you can run the code and the light blinks at the expected speed, then the timing is working. Finally, add in the button press. When your code acts like the button is getting pressed multiple times, you will have discovered switch bounce, and you can come back here and ask about it. -- Tim Wescott Wescott Design Services http://www.wescottdesign.com

Do you mean the leds are not going on? Or are they not going off? Or is it working sometimes? Or have you released the magic grey smoke? So as well as simplifying the code, keep track of what happens when you try it. And keep track of different versions of your test code, so that you can refer back to them as you make progress.

OK, I tried again with this program but even if I stop pushin the button,
the two LED switch on even if normally, they should stop.
Can someone help me because I do not know where is the problem. I have
take a look to this link to understand how is working the push button :
http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/MSP430_LaunchPad_PushButton#Code
but apparently, with this sequence, it does not stop.
Thanks for your advices.

You set the lights to different colors with different delays every time the button is pushed. I don't see a need for an interrupt. To get something working try making a loop that continually tests the push button. Once pressed start a timer. The easiest way to do that is to have a free running timer and you just store the value to a variable. When the button is released this stored timer value is compared to the current timer value and a decision is made about which time period has elapsed. The appropriate LED is lit. All of this can be done in the loop. If you have a reason to use an interrupt, this code would go in the interrupt routine with the loop as the main routine with nothing in it. As someone has mentioned, you will need to debounce the switch input. That would be a third time interval (a short one) that precludes any action. sooo..... here is some pseudo code... forever loop { current_button <= read_button(); if current_button <> old_button { current_timer <= read_timer(); interval = current_timer - old_timer; if current_button = pressed { if interval > 250 ms { turn off all LEDs old_timer <= current_timer; } } else { if interval > 250 ms { if interval > 2 sec { turn on green LED old_timer <= current_timer; } if interval < 1 sec { turn on red LED old_timer <= current_timer; } } } old_button <= current_button; } } -- Rick

I do not know either what my code was doing except telling me to ask for a big help :D What do you mean by current button and old button ? What sort of clock do I have to use ? The sub-main clock ? --------------------------------------- Posted through http://www.EmbeddedRelated.com
