Download problem when using INC command

[SD2100]

While attempting to download to a 28x1 I had an error message and the program failed to download, I tracked it down to the INC command and once removed the program downloaded ok. I've replaced all the INC commands with the old x=x+1 thing.

Attempting to download the following line causes the error message

inc b0

Chip used = 28x1 version A.0
PE = 5.2.2

(I just found that it happens with the DEC command also)

It works OK in 28x1 A.3 and A.5. I've been programming dozens of them

This appears to be a missing hot-fix compiler for version A.0

I remember another issue with A.0 compilation a few weeks ago but cannot recall the exact problem there; it may be related. We will investigate this.

Thanks hippy, The last time I download to the 28x1 A.0 chip was on the 28/8/2008 using whatever PE was current then possibly 5.2.1 ???, I usually install the latest PE when their released so this has only showed up with PE 5.2.2. I tried it with a 28x1 A.2 but that was ok.

Our apologies as there's been a discrepancy in naming which which we will correct for the next release. In the meantime the workround is ...

1) Locate your "C:\Program Files\Programming Editor\Compiler" directory

2) Copy "picaxe28x1_0.exe" as "axe28x1_0.exe" in that directory.

That should make everything work as expected.

Made changes you suggested and all ok now.

Thanks
