'REPEAT' problem?

Rsadeika

Maybe it is something that I am overlooking. The code snippet below, I am expecting the string to display five times, for me it only displays three times. When I change the value to 'repeat 2' it does not display anything. Is their something that I am missing?

Thanks

your first string is sent immediately upon boot, the second 2 seconds later, so you are probably missing them if you are switching to a terminal application, this can be remedied by writing the program to eeprom and reseting the prop once you have the other app open

Thanks CJ,

Now, why·didn't I think of that, I put in a four second delay, and that seems to have solved the problem.

Thanks
