Hi, i want to transfer some data from 3 micro controllers to one micro. i don't want to use wireless transmission. the distance between micro controllers are at least 10 meter. i use PIC16F877A and picbasic pro 2.43, could you help me?

Hey, D_T!!! Could I hotlink your ROFL.GIF here? :D
You could, I don't mind. But it wouldn't be very nice to laugh at him. :eek:Quote:

Hi amindzo,
look at this link, I bought several of this authors books, and would again.

Hi,my friend suggest that you use a multi cable to connect one port to another port of main micro(8 wire,for example PORTB of micro 1 to PORTC of main micro) and use PEEK and POKE instruction. you put one byte on a port and read it from main micro and you should make a time program to read data on time.
but it is not a good method. it's need a lot of wire and the distance can effect on the voltage,current and also we have noise.

That'll work great...Quote:

if i want to use serin and serout instructions, can i connect(for example) PORTB.0 of micro 1 to PORTC.1 of main micro with wire directly?(with 10 to 20 meter distance)
Hi, which cable i should use for this application to avoid noise problems and if i want to use MAX232 how should i connect it to microcontroller ? could you show me the diagram and the code in picbasic pro with serin and serout instructions?
Anything else?Quote:
