    Default Ebay HC-12 wireless transceivers

    HC-12 wireless transceivers

    Has anyone used the HC-12 wireless RS-232 modules on ebay? My modules seem to work fine with Arduino but I am having no luck using a 16F628A/16f616. Very simple code below returns

    96
    128
    32

    64
    128

    Transmitter Code 16F616:
    Tx:
    SEROUT PORTC.5,6,[2] 'sends 2 to the HC-12 every 3 seconds
    PAUSE 3000
    GOTO TX

    Receiver Code 16F628A:
    OVER:
    SERIN2 PORTB.2,16468,3000,OVER,[V1]
    IF V1 = 0 THEN GOTO OVER
    SEROUT PORTB.5,6,[#V1,10] 'Output to serial Monitor
    GOTO OVER

    Break down the problem - connect the 16F616 pin C.5 to the 16F628A pin B.2 with a piece of wire and make that work first.
    GND on both devices should be tied together too.

    It works as expected when wired direct.

    which would be not at all


    tx true level @38400 baud
    SEROUT PORTC.5,6,[2] 'sends 2 to the HC-12 every 3 seconds
    rx inverted @9600 baud
    SERIN2 PORTB.2,16468,3000,OVER,[V1]

    It works for sure when wired direct.
    If you take a look at the third 9600bps mode " http://melabs.com/resources/ser2modes.htm " you will find that 16468 is indeed 9600 inverted when using serin2 as is mode 6 when using serout. I am running inverted since I am wired direct and not thru a set of MAX232 ics.

    ok [I was thinking serout2]

    are you sure the signal needs to be inverted , I have not used these modules but the code here is using true levels

    there is also mention of setting the module correctly re baud rate and fu_x
