BS2-P40 DIRS(input/output) question

Maj.Slayer

I have a problem. I cant seem to get SERIN's Flow control pin to go low then high. I'm using a BS2-p40 and my Flow Control pin is AUX 13. How do I set this aux pin for input or output mode?

Thanks.

If you're trying to have your serial IO pin in the main group and your FC pin in the aux group, this is a problem. You need to have them in the same group due to the nature of selection a pin group for IO functions.

AUXIO ' switch to the 16 aux pins
DIR13=1 ' sets x13 as an output
OUT13=1
OUT13=0

MAINIO ' switch to the 16 main pins
DIR13=1 ' sets p13 as an output
OUT13=1
OUT13=0

AUXIO
SERIN 12\13,$54,[noparse][[/noparse]yy] ' uses x12 as data input and x13 for flow control
' that automatically makes x13 an output and x12 an input

SERIN 16\13,$54,[noparse][[/noparse]xx] ' uses debug port with flow control on x13

Also you can look at the IOTERM command for switching between the main and aux pins.
