help with msp 430 interface and dip-switches

Started by bcincin November 28, 2007
1- I got a board with dip-switches. How do they work? What do they use for?


2- I'm tring to do a c# interface to change baud rate of msp430 but it
does not work properly. I got a blinking led to see if it works fine. The
problem is, when i change baud rate, led stops blinkind. When I set change
it back to initial baud rate, led starts blinking again 

Code: 
#include <msp430x16x.h> 
void checkMes (char ); 
void delay(); // delay 
void blinker(); // blink led 
char message; // check received data 
volatile unsigned int delm=1; // # of delays 
volatile int t=0; // led's not blinking when it is 0 
volatile int m=0; 
volatile int baud; // msp430 baud speed 



void main(void) 
{ 
WDTCTL = WDTPW + WDTHOLD; // Stop WDT 
P3SEL |= 0xC0; // P3.6,7 = USART1 option select 
ME2 |= UTXE1 + URXE1; // Enable USART1 TXD/RXD 
  

UCTL1 |= CHAR; // 8-bit character 
UTCTL1 |= SSEL0; // UCLK = ACLK 
UBR01 = 0x0D; // 32k/2400 - 13.65 
UBR11 = 0x00; 
UMCTL1 = 0x6B; // Modulation 
UCTL1 &= ~SWRST; // Initialize USART state machine 
IE2 |= URXIE1; // Enable USART1 RX interrupt 

            
P1DIR |=BIT0; 


P1OUT =~BIT0; 
// Mainloop 

for(;;){ 
_BIS_SR(LPM3_bits + GIE); 

#if 1 
while (!(IFG2 & UTXIFG1)); // USART1 TX buffer ready? 

TXBUF1 = message; 
#endif 

while (t==0){ 
 // Enter LPM3 w/interrupt 

checkMes (message); //check command message coming from interface 

while (t==1) 
blinker();  //start blinking the light 


} 

} 
} 
  

#if 1 
// UART1 RX ISR will for exit from LPM3 in Mainloop 
#pragma vector= USART1RX_VECTOR 
__interrupt void usart1_rx (void) 
{ 
 _BIC_SR_IRQ( LPM3_bits) ;// Clear LPM3 bits from 0(SR) 
 t=0; 
 message=RXBUF1; 
  
} 

#endif 

void delay() //changes the blinking speed of led 
{ 
  unsigned int i; 
  i=10000; 
  while(i>0) 
    i--; 
} 


void blinker ()     // blinks led 
{ 
  while (t==1){ 
    int i=delm; 
    P1OUT ^=BIT0; 
    while (i>0)    // waits for delay 
    { 
      i--; 
      delay(); 
    }  
  } 
} 


void checkMes (char m) 
{ 
  char c2; 
  int com;  
  
  
  
  if ((m & 0x80) == 0x80)  //Check if it is blink command 
  { 
    if ((m & 0x10) == 0x10){    //check if it is blink button 
      t=1; 
      blinker(); 
     } 
    else      // # of delays 
    { 
      c2=(m & 0x07); 
      delm=c2;          
     t=1; 
    } 
  } 
  else     // it is configuration 
  { 
   t=2;

Just a wild guess, but I would imagine your code never advances beyond this line:
> while (!(IFG2 & UTXIFG1)); // USART1 TX buffer ready?
The reason *may* be that you did not follow the initialization sequence for the USART correctly with regard to the SWRST bit. Check the docs. There is a required sequence that will otherwise result in "unpredictable" behavior. -- Michael N. Moran (h) 770 516 7918 5009 Old Field Ct.

When closed, they allow current to flow through them. When open, they don't.
> What do they use for?
To turn current on/off.

Your code is 1) Too long. People are willing to look at a short program to help you with a specific problem. If you just post a 100+ lines of code and ask "what's wrong with my program?" you're not going to get very good results. 2) A mess. The random indentation and brace placement make it impossible to read. Most of us won't try to help until you put in a little effort to make it easy for us. If you want help, post a smaller, well-formatted program that doesn't work. The program needs to be as small as possible but still demonstrate the problem.
