Usart interrupt

Hello everybody,

After many search, I hope find here a solution to my problem.

I'm using the PIC16F877, and I would like

1) Receive a byte through USART interrupt,
2) During these interrupt sendback a byte with the usart.

The first point here above can be esaly done, eg :
http://www.picbasic.co.uk/forum/arch...hp/t-3068.html

But how can I perform the 2nd point because the HSERIN and HSEROUT command are not available in case of using the hardware serial interrupt???

May be by using the simple software serout command, but is not the realy best method.....

WKR, thony

Try using DT instant interrupts.
It worked for me.

Will this work??

Code:

---

DISABLE
USART_INT:
    RCSTA=0  ' disable serial port
        'bla bla bla                   
    RCSTA=$90  ' re-start serial port
HSEROUT SOMETHING
    RESUME                 
ENABLE

Hello.

I suggest that you use mr. Darrel Taylor's (fantastic) instant interrupts as mr. JohnMacklo proposed, but not from the link he provided which is for 18Fs only and you're using 16F. Instead start here: http://www.picbasic.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=3251

Here is an example of using mr. Taylor's USART interrupt to receive and send received, one byte at a time. However that is not the proper way to do it, you should use ISR only to collect data and get out of it as soon as possible. One of the usual methods is to create a buffer and fill it in ISR, and process received data when you can spare some time. It all depends on what you need. If you can tell us what would you like to achieve maybe we could assist you a little bit more.

INT_LIST  macro    ; IntSource,  Label,  Type, ResetFlag?
        INT_Handler        RX_INT,  _IHINFO,  asm,  yes
    endm
    INT_CREATE              ; Creates the interrupt processor
    INT_ENABLE  RX_INT
ENDASM



MAIN:
'do something here...
goto MAIN




RX_ISR:
x=rcreg
txreg=x
@ INT_RETURN

In RX_ISR you can use HSERIN/OUT instead of directly reading RCREG and writting to TXREG, but accesing registers directly is a little bit faster I think. At least it uses less code space.
