SD card hardware SPI problems

Several years ago I used the AVR-DOS SD card routines for implementing SD card data logging in an instrument using hardware SPI (ATMega2560). Worked great, still works.
However, I can no longer get the old code to work (now using BASCOM 2.0.8.0). Software SPI works, but not hardware SPI.

Here is excerpt from original code (Config_MMCSD_HC.BAS) that worked:

Thank you. I'll give it a try.

I have the same problem with your code. Compiler returns "Invalid Parameter" on the Config SPI... line.
Removing "Master=YES" eliminates the error, but program freezes at SD initialization.

Why dont you use newest 2082?
Like picture shows, your code compiles fine, without errors.
Mabe your Bascom have some problem with license Very Happy

same result on 2082, two different computers.

frustrating!!!!

we can all send working code but the TS should post his code that does not work. Not just some fragment that means nothing without context. But the smallest part that does not work.

Files attached.

"S1012-100P2 A1300 PI3.BAS" is the main program

when I compile, I get:

Error : 127 Line : 51 Invalid parameter [1] , in File : M1046-101 MMCSD_HC.BAS

with this line highlighted:

Config Spi = Hard , Interrupt = Off , Data Order = Msb , Master = Yes , Polarity = High , Phase = 1 , Clockrate = 4 , Noss = 0

Hi,

Looking in you code your defining a constant "YES" and YES is also used in the CONFIG SPI command.

Deleting the Definition from "M1010-101 Constants.bas" the code compiles.

Hi,

Glad to be of Service.

I've seen afew other things in you Software that I'm not sure if they'll work the way you think, I'll look at the code again when I've had a sleep.

I removed the attachment because i am not sure you want to share it with the whole world. When not ok, just post it again.

Great find of Ian indeed !

There are some issues with your code.
One of them : Sensor_ua_raw = Sensor_volts / Gain(gain1_idx , Gain2_idx) 'sensor current
this will not work since gain is not an array. I will check that since in this case you should get an error. The IDE indicates as an error, but the compiler should give one too.

there are others but you do not call that code so no problem yet.

Thanks for the attachment removal.

The software is a work-in-progress based on my existing analyzer software that has a single gain amp, where Gain(gain_idx) is an array of gains. In this new analyzer, there are two digitally-controlled amps, so I just stuck that Gain2_idx in there to remind me to take it into account when I get there. But you're correct - Gain(gain1_idx,gain2_idx) looks like a function call or 2-dimensional array ! Will change soon.
Currently working on the touchscreen interface, so the software is just sending temperature, pressure, time & date to the display. Alarm relays, analog outputs, SD card, Modbus, valve and pump drivers are all functional.
