Help with sending text file from pic

Hello
i just need to draw on your expert advice on this problem that i have got.
i am trying to use my pic18f452 to communicate with a device that accepts text files to activate a test.
when i send say C1 with CR ,LF from hyperterminal there is no responce but
if i save C1 with CR,LF as a file and use send text file from hyperterminal
this works ok.
Is there a way i can do this with the pic ?
At present i send it with Hserout["C1",10,13]
What am i doing wrong here

Regards
Isaac

Try Hserout[$C1,10,13]

This Sends Decimal 193,10,13

Hserout["C1",10,13]

This Sends Decimal 67,49,10,13

Hi Isaac,

In Hyperterminal, goto

File | Properties | Settings Tab |ASCII Setup

and check the "Send line ends with line feeds" checkbox.

Your advice did the trick

Is it possible to send a string that has text within quotation marks in a string using the SEROUT command ? I seem to get an error and I need to use this feature to send commands to an external color LCD panel. (BTW, I'm new at PicBasic).

Sure can,

The ascii code for double quotes is 34. So you can do this...

Code:

---

SEROUT Pin, Mode, [34,"some text here",34]

---

Thank you !!! That approach had never occurred to me.
