    Question Question on made gecko error reset controler

    Hi,

    I search an electronic specialist that has built the Gecko error/reset controler card with old PIC 16C55 that I have found on this site : www.aree.com/gecko/err.html
    If you 've build this, How have you programming this Pic from source code provided on the site ?
    In first time i have used cvasm16 version 5.8 (find on Techtools site) but this version generates a simple file .obj
    I don't how use this object code to flash my PIC.
    With the newest cvasm16 version 6.2, I have modified the program of this manner to adapt the new directives
    programming to produce Microchip hex code
    Like this :

    include '16c55.inc'
    FUSE _XT_OSC & _WDT_OFF & _CP_OFF
    reset start
    ;------------------- -----------------
    ; equates
    ;------------------- -----------------
    ; For compatibily with MPASM
    ; (hex program produce with /M option of cvasm16 6.2)
    ; RTCC Timer change for TMR0
    RTCC equ TMR0
    ... no other change

    I have compiled the source code with the option /M to produce a file .hex compatible with my PIC hardware programer (It's a Tait's with PP5X software)

    What do you think of this and could you explain me how can i use initial obj file (without modification code) to obtain the initial function GERC

    I've email to alan on the site www.aree.com but it seem not life ...

    With my thanks for your help
