SERIN from BS2

SteveD

main:
TX_BYTE theTemp
TX_BYTE setTemp
TX_BYTE tHold
goto main


TX_BYTE:
· ·Flo = 1············ 'alert max 1483
·· ·Pause 1
···· ·· Temp1 = __PARAM1
···· ·· SEROUT Sio,baud,temp1
· ·Flo = 0
RETURN

I can send 3 bytes one right after another from the SX to the stamp using Jon's example code above.· It works great!

The code below does not work for me.· Should I be able to ably the same idea as above and have it work?·

main
·RX_TEMP setAcHi
·RX_TEMP setAcLo
GOTO MAIN

RX_TEMP:
·temp1 = __PARAM1
·· SERIN sio, baud, temp1
RETURN

This format works ok but it seems like the one above should work too.

main:
RX_TEMP
goto main

RX_TEMP:
SERIN sio, baud, setAcHi
SERIN sio, baud, setAcHI
RETURN

Thanks again

Steve,
In the example that doesn't work, it looks like you setting up to do a SEROUT but then you do a SERIN ?
For instance why would you do "temp1 = __PARAM1" before a SERIN that is going to change the value of temp1 ?
I think you want to do this:

RX_TEMP SUB 0

main:
  setAcHi = RX_TEMP
  setAcLo = RX_TEMP
  GOTO main

RX_TEMP:
  SERIN sio,baud,temp1
  RETURN temp1

Bean.

That makes a whole lot of since when you put it that way, I will give it a try. Wow I would give anything to be half as sharp as you guys. Believe it or not you guys have brought me along ways.

THANKS!
