This Forum is Dedicated For all The Object Oriented PIC Lovers .......... The concept behind OOPic is straight forward. Use preprogrammed multitasking Objects from a library of highly optimized Objects to do all the work of interacting with the hardware. Then write small scripts in Basic, C, or Java syntax styles to control the Objects. During operation, the Objects run continuously and simultaneously in the background while the scripts run in the foreground telling the objects what to do.

[oopic] Re: Fried voltage regulator or Cable issue?

Thank you for the quick response Richard, i really do appreciate it.

Its deinitely is the s-board configuration (

http://www.oopic.com/connects.htm ), not the r-board, sorry about
that. The OOPic board is only about 3 weeks old (and since my
soldering skills arent that great id rather no have to unsolder the
regulator and solder on a new one already). Like i said, all i tried
to do with it was set up the test circuit found in the OOPic manual
in chapter 2 to try and see if it was working. Hooked up a 9v battery
to the power connector using the battery connector cable that came
with the programming cable, and connected the resistor and LED to the
correct pins according to the pinout sheet and example. So im not
entirely sure how it happened.

Sorry about the confusion with the parallel/usb reference. My comp
does have a real parallel port. I had usb devices (ipod, printer,
etc) plugged into my mobo and as i read the forums some people had
mentioned that these could possibly interfere with the parallel port,
so i just unplugged them all. I will look into getting some type a
serial conenction instead of using the parallel connector if that is
what you reccomend.

Thanks for the help. If you have any other ideas/input please let me
know. Thanks again
