    SEROUT2 PORTB.2, BAUD,["TEST",13]

    But this does...

    Use a FOR NEXT

    I think that you could use something like.

    Delay Var Word ' Pause in us
    Counter Var Word

    FOR Counter = 1 to Delay
    @nop
    @nop
    NEXT Counter

    Do you have a resistor

    Hi and welcome,

    The code appears to be okay to me ( another newbie).
    You don't need these lines as you already set TRISB = 0

    Try this OSCCON

    Hi Carl,
    I usually use
    OSCCON = %01101000 and it seems to work. Don't forget the Define OSC for speeds other than 4MHz.
    Hope this helps.

    N9600

    From one Mike to another,
    I'm not sure on this, but I think that you can only use modedefs.bas and N9600 mode with the SEROUT command not with SEROUT2.

    Rs-232

    Hi Cameron,
    I wasn't sure whether you were using the rs-232 still but these invert the signal as well as increasing the voltage to 12V. Could this be your problem?
