Thank you Milan for your help. I've learned a lot. I have few questions.
- How could I clear display anytime I want? It will allow me to call Lcd_Cmd only in one place. Even though I make own procedure for display clear I can only call it inside one procedure/funtion.
- I need two pushbuttons. According to datasheet all RB ports are interrupt ports. How should this be done properly? I've tested the following way but it seems to work only intermittenly...

Code:

void interrupt(void){
     if (IOCBF.IOCBF7)	// RB7 interrupt
      {
		// Do stuff
      }
       IOCBF.IOCBF7 = 0;        // Clear interrupt flag

      if (IOCBF.IOCBF6)	// RB6 interrupt
      {
		// Do stuff
      }
       IOCBF.IOCBF6 = 0;        // Clear interrupt flag
       INTF_bit = 0;
 }

- In your example you only set one parameter inside interrupt handling and did all the necessary actions in other procedure. Does this mean you shouldn't do much things inside interrupt?

Try this code. LCD connections are changed. RB0 and RB7 are for buttons. When button on RB7 is pressed then RB7 goes low.

Does this mean you shouldn't do much things inside interrupt?

There is no functional reason why code inside an ISR has to be kept to a minimum but there are good reasons why it is good practise to do so. In most processors, while an interrupt is being serviced (you are in the ISR) any further interrupts are inhibited. This is to prevent the ISR being called from within itself if a subsequent interrupt is triggered. Normally, the running ISR finishes and if there is another pending interrupt it is re-entered to service it so although it may be called several times only one ISR instance runs at a time. If you do things inside an ISR that can slow it down (delays are the worst thing you can put in an ISR) there is a danger that a second pending interrupt request is overwritten by a third or even greater request. There is a danger that your code is not able to see these later requests and fails to operate as it should.

If you keep ISR code as short as possible it helps to minimize the chance of missing interrupts. The best thing to do is simply set a flag in a variable to say the interrupt was triggered then clean up and exit the ISR. You can then check and reset the flag in your main code while still letting the interrupt system have the fast response time it needs.

I don't remember to have ever used an interrupt input for a button, except for wakeup from power saving modes.

That INTF_bit doesn't work. It freezes the MCU completely. RB7 does work.

Edit:
Indeed, I just added to main while loop checking of the state of buttons and do there necessary. Works like a treat and much simpler.. Thanks for you all.

milan.rajik · Nov 29, 2014

When does it freeze ? If you press button on RB0, press and hold button on RB0, press and release button on RB0 ?

Instantly when I press the button. This seems to be the freezer: if(INTF_bit)

Hai everyone....
I am using like this

void float_disp(int value)
{
d1=value/100;
d2=value%100;
d3=d2/10;
d4=d2%10;
lcd_data(d1);
lcd_data(0x2e);
lcd_data(d3);
lcd_data(d4);
}

I think this can be the final code which doesn't need any more changes.

Thanks Milan. I don't know why does it freeze immediately when it goes to line if(INTF_bit). Also those strcat things make extra G's on display. I dumped the idea of interrupt and handle those buttons in main. Nevermind this way it works but it's not the smoothest and simplest. I still got 63% free rom and 65% free ram on that PIC16F1847 chip which is plenty. I added following features to the toggle button: Maximum G values on both axis -> Minimum X values on both axis -> difference between max and min values. Reset button resets all stored values. Values from accelerometer are read very often and stored to variables but display is updated only like 0.1sec+nsec. I'm happy with the results. Here's the code if someone would like to build similar device. I was thinking to add third button to store the values but I don't see much use of it..
