Pwmduty 08m?

[techElder]

Is pwmduty available for the 08M or not? It certainly works for the 08M2, and the following from Basic Commands doesn't specifically exclude the 08M.

PE 6.0.9.3 complains with, " pmduty command not supported by this chip, use pwmout! " and that is clear to me, but confusing when I'm following the documentation.

A forum search did not bring up anything.

Name:
pwmduty
Syntax:

PWMDUTY pin,duty cycles

Pin - is a constant which specifies the i/o pin to use. Note that the pwmout pin is not always a default output pin.

Duty - is a variable/constant (0-1023) which sets the PWM duty cycle. (duty cycle is the mark or 'on time' )
Description:

Alter the duty cycle after a pwmout command has been issued. On some parts the pwmduty command can be used to alter the pwm duty cycle without resetting the internal timer (as occurs with a pwmout command). A pwmout command must be issued on the appropriate pin before this command will function. See the pwmout command for more details and restrictions.

Applies To:
All (except 08, 18, 18A, 20M, 28, 28A)

If the compiler says no the answer is no. This part has been obsolete for several years - the current part (08M2) does support this command.

What has probably happened is the 'available for' had been copied from PWMOUT to PWMDUTY. I have updated the online PWMDUTY documentation accordingly.

Now, that's funny! Don't you know that programmers have OCD?

Thanks for the responses, guys.
