Dennis, I don't believe you read what I wrote. In my quotes from the "manual", it very clearly states exactly what you are finding on those three registers. Please re-read very carefully my two quotes from pages 24 and 237. The manual is very clear and correct on this, although a

You have to "build" the code. I use the SDK500 and Studio4.x. The build will generate the object code. If an error occurs, it will flag it. Try using the GPIOR0, 1, 2 registers with the instructions given in the manual. Only GRIOR0 will work. D ----- Original Message ----- From:

Clarify. The GPIOR0 is in a different address space from the other 2 GP registers. Why? Haven't a clue. They are not in the I/O space like ports. However, the manual leads you to believe that the SBI, CBI etc instructions work on all 3 registers. Not so. The EIMSK is kind of sort

The GPIOR0, 1 & 2 do not all respond to the instructions specified. Only GPIOr0 does. I use the LDS and STS with all 3. If you look at the RET and RETI instructions, the stack operations are the same, according to the manual. However, the RET does return to the instruction follow
