Hi group, Using the 16F685 i want to set two bits on PORTC using these lines: btfsc OUTPUT, OUT1A ; Is bit set so set it to 1 in portC bsf PORTC, OUT1A btfss OUTPUT, OUT1A ; else if not reset it to 0 bcf PORTC, OUT1A btfsc OUTPUT, OUT1B bsf PORTC, OUT1B btfss OUTPUT, OUT1B bcf PORTC, OUT1B But could this be done easier and if so how?
