can i store {eeAddress = (month - 1) * 4} in another VAR and send it out?

SEROUT toModem,baud, [noparse][[/noparse]MonNames, eeAddress = (month - 1) * 4]
···
cos it shows a binay expected, ')'. So how am i able to display my number out thru the serout?

    You can do that like this:

    SEROUT toModem,baud, [noparse][[/noparse]MonNames, (month - 1) * 4]



    or by putting it in a variable first:

    eeAddress = (month - 1) * 4
SEROUT toModem,baud, [noparse][[/noparse]MonNames, eeAddress]

    That line of code points to the first character of a string. You must use a loop with READ to retrieve the characters, then send them with SEROUT.
