Help with rxtime

steprog

Hello Late Nighters,
I need a little help in how does one use the rxtime function in FullDuplexSerialPlus. I need a timeout waiting for data transfer. Anyone have an example?
Thanks,
Greg

Here is a code snippet using rxtime. The line with " k := uarts.rxtime(0, 50)" waits 50mS to receive a byte, and returns with the variable "k" set to that byte or -1 if no byte was received after 50mS.

This code uses pcFullDuplexSerial4FC, but FullDuplexSerialPlus is very similar. The line would read "k := uarts.rxtime(50)" in that case.

Thanks for this. I will give it a shot.
