Hi,
I´m trying to set upp the harware serial port to send ASCII to a serial LCD display.
I´m using a 18F6585 running at 10MHz.
Can anyone help with the setup?
I have tried the following:
DEFINE HSER_RCSTA 90h
DEFINE HSER_TXSTA 20h
DEFINE HSER_BAUD 19200
DEFINE OSC 10
I use a MAX232 as a RS232 driver.
When I connect the pic to a PC and use HyperTerm I can get something out from the pic but it look like garbage.
Almost as the pic is transmitting at wrong speed.

Your code looks a bit iffy...Are you sure it's running at 10mhz?Quote:

DEFINE HSER_TXSTA 24h ' Enable transmit, BRGH = 1
DEFINE HSER_SPBRG 32 ' 19200 Baud @ 10MHz, -1.36%
DEFINE HSER_CLROERR 1 ' Clear overflow automatically
Error % is better.Code:DEFINE HSER_RCSTA 90h ' Enable serial port & continuous receive
DEFINE HSER_TXSTA 24h ' Enable transmit, BRGH = 1
DEFINE HSER_CLROERR 1 ' Clear overflow automatically
DEFINE HSER_SPBRG 129 ' 19200 Baud @ 10MHz, 0.16%
SPBRGH = 0
BAUDCON.3 = 1 ' Enable 16 bit baudrate generator
NOW, you have to show us your configuration fuse setting.
PICMultiCalc available bellow...

Configuration Fuses setup and how to..

Maybe your PIC is running @10MHZ... but you you didn't set the right Fuses. That one have a few to set first :(
Thanks guys.
First I just have to say that this PicMultiCalc is the BEST :-).
I setup the fuse in programmer software but I am going to put it in my program instead.
Now I have a 10Mhz crystal.
OSC=HS, PWRT=ON, BOR=OFF, WDT=OFF, LVP=OFF, DEBUG=OFF
I still can´t get anything out from the serial port.

This is what my 18F6585.INC file look like!

I forgot to say that I dont run the pic at 10Mhz as I said erlier.
I use HSPLL function and run it at 40MHz.

Then you have to DEFINE OSC 40 'cause it's running at 40Mhz, not 10MhzQuote:

But still not working as it should.
Maybe I have something wrong in my design with the MAX232 curcuit.
I will do a check to if it works.
Hi again,
hmm.. its a little embarrassing.
I´ve got it working now.
I just had to shift the RX and TX line on the RS232 cable. hehe.
I took the scope and saw that both my pic and the PC tried sending data on same line.
But I got lot of help from you anyway. Like this PicMultiCalc software :-)
