Hi,

The PortA should be an 6 bit input controlled by a printer port.
If A4 would be  an exception I could only use A0,A1,A2,A3 as a block to
define 16 adresses.

The Microchip table of ADCON1 register if we select PCFG2:PCFG0 = 11x we
have :
RA0, RA1,RA2,RA5,RA3,VREF.
I misunderstood that RA4 has nothing to do with AD.

I try to use E0,E1,E2 as individual input switches for control .

I think after 1 week of atempts I have nearly solved the question: I
discovered that after  writing ADCON1 = 7 a watch window shows 0, and I need
to use Modify and before saving, program the chip. When I save, will ADCON1
= 0 again...

Thanks for your help

Fernando Teixeira
