Serin and debugin
Archiver
Posts: 46,084
Hi, I am trying to read information from a PC using pin 1 on a
bs2. I know that the baud rate from the PC is 9600. I tried using
both serin and debugin to read these commands and display it on the
debug screen. I can't get any information to come up. I took
commands from the editor help menu but that didn't help either. Can
anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance,
Chris

Make sure your degug screen is set to the same Com port and baud rate as your
Stamp.

MAIN:
SERIN 16, 54 + $4000, [noparse][[/noparse]MyData]
SEROUT 16, 54 + $4000, [noparse][[/noparse]DEC MyData]
GOTO MAIN
The above should work. You'll have to
bring up the 'Terminal' at 9600 baud.
The program will 'hang' on the SERIN,
and then proceed to output the decimal
value of what you put in when you hit
'return'.
The '54' should be the 'baud selector' value,
and the $4000 is 'Invert', which you should use
when having a 232 driver in-circuit.

press keys on your keyboard. What else
did you want it to do? The example you
posted earlier implied that's what you
couldn't do.
Note you CAN'T enable both SERIN/SEROUT
and DEBUG at the same time on the DB-9
-- as they both use the same serial port
on your PC.
Again, what else did you want it to do?

bus. I want to view the information through the stamp instead of
using the program on my laptop. In the long run I hope to transmit
these diagnostic codes from the stamp wirelessly to view from a
remote area. For right now I just want to see if the stamp can view
this information.

Chris -
You will need to know the specs for the data which is being produced.
Is it 7 bit or 8 bit, even, odd, or no parity, and are you sure the baud
rate is 9600 ? Once you know the above parameters, you can probably
construct a Stamp BAUDMODE which will meet your needs. Not all combinations
of the above parameters are possible with the Stamp. The manual will
indicate which are possible, and which are not.
It would also be helpful to know the format of the data which is being
produced.
