Serout/Serout2 on pin RC6

[Ioannis]

Yes. This is the problem. When there is a Hserout command inside the program (no matter where, even at the end), the TX pin is engaged by the UART and cannot be controlled.

Now I have to find out how to release it from the UART control.

TXSTA=2 and RCSTA=0 did not help.

What I really want to do is to emulate a 1200 baud trasnmission of one zero (0), like this:

LOW PORTC.6
PAUSEUS 7500
HIGH PORTC.6

That way there is no need to deal with BAUD rate change. If it only worked...
