Talking to the BS2 with COM1
Archiver
Posts: 46,084
Greetings,
I want to send the BS2 a single character from time to time from the
COM1 port on my PC.
I'm using 8 bit, no parity.
SerData VAR BYTE
SERIN 16, 84, [noparse][[/noparse]SerData]
My problem is how do I configure the PC port. I must have something
configured wrong like DTR or DSR. This will be a Windows program so the
setup for the COM ports has about 40 different options and settings in
WIN32. Outside of setting the port to 9600 baud, 8 bit, no parity what
does it need?
Thanks, Theron Wierenga
