    Default Release HPWM?

    Hi Guys
    I’m wondering when HPWM command is used once, what does it take to make it go away?
    Or the “proper way”, so you can use the pin as normal.

    I know of a few like setting duty cycle 0 or 255, or frequency below what the pic is capable, etc.
    but what it supposed to be done to stop it and use the pin entirely manually?

    It’s for a digital controlled slayer exciter (mini Tesla coil).
    Once I get below the frequency HPWM can handle, I’d like to take over and do lower frequencies manually with DT’s timer.
    Cheers, Art.

    ccpxcon = 0
    would do it

    although tris bit for cpx would remain cleared.

    Ok thanks Richard, I will try.
    For now I have just been setting duty cycle 100% and then using tris for the pin to toggle a transistor base.

    Thanks
    It will make a few of them safer if I can do a small unit in a can for each neon.
    Then they can be supplied with 12 Volts 2.5A along the supply cable instead of 3kV 30mA.
