OK..
this is my first time using this forum (I've used Pink Monkey though) but here goes.
I am having problems starting to program in asm. I am a student and have been programming on Basic for the past year and a half, so i know most of my way around. But, I heard about Assembly and thought well if it's that faster and is SOO much better why not give it a shot?
I downloaded the compiler from cirrus programming and got it running (clr home was changed to a .8xp file and loaded it to my TI-83 plus silver. When it was on graph link the program was incredibly short, only like 2 words but I figured that was how assembly was. When i try to run it on my calc, it has a syntax error and will not clear the darn screen.
Can any one help me and give me some reasons why it possibly won't work
Thanks a lot!
(pretty hot name though huh?) |

Sounds like you're missing a correct header. In your source file make sure you have the like .db $bb, $6d. This denotes TIOS that it is in fact an assembly program!
I'll just type out the source since it's so short
Code:
#INCLUDE "TI83PLUS.INC"
.ORG USERMEM-2;Defines where prog loads itself in the memory
[B].DB $BB,$6D [/B];This is the line I said to insert, tells the calc it's assembly
BCALL(_CLRLCDFULL);Clears the screen
BCALL(_GETKEYS);Waits for a keypress
RET;Exits program
.END;denotes end of file

I wouldn't use CoBB's until you have a good grasp on the basic basics.. like succesfully assembling and running an assembly program  try this guide:

Code:
#include "ti83plus.inc"
.org $9d93
.db $BB,$6D
ret
.end
That will work okay. Makes sure there is a space before the ret.
Now, compile and send.
If it works, all you will see is Done.
If it doesn't, you may see Err: Syntax, Err: Invalid, or very unlikely a ram reset. |
