' Name        : SERVOXU.pbp
' Compiler    : PICBASIC PRO Compiler 2.6
' Assembler   : MPASM
' Target PIC  : PIC18F4550 or similar type
' Hardware    : LAB-XUSB Experimenter Board
' Oscillator  : 20MHz external

' Description : PICBASIC PRO program to move RC servo 1 using buttons.
' Button 1 moves servo left, 2 centers servo, 3 moves servo right.

' Define LOADER_USED to allow use of the boot loader.
' This will not affect normal program operation.
Define LOADER_USED 1

' RESET_ORG can be set to move the BASIC program out of the way
' of any boot loader running from location 0, such as the
' Microchip USB boot loader
'Define RESET_ORG 800h

Define OSC 48      ' Core is running at 48MHz

' Define LCD pins
Define LCD_DREG  PORTD
Define LCD_DBIT  4
Define LCD_RSREG PORTE
Define LCD_RSBIT 0
Define LCD_EREG  PORTE
Define LCD_EBIT  1
