SEROUT,HSEROUT or DEBUG ? max 232 or no max232 ?

[Darrel Taylor]

I created a new variable called datatx
and then after the displaying myvar to LCD with LCDOUT,
all I did was let datatrx = myvar
then SEROUT myvar
And whammo it works :-) YAY ...!

Well, I'm glad it's working, but I don't think that's what fixed it.

All that did was copy a byte var to another byte var then displays the copied var. It's no different than displaying the original var in the first place.

And since it works, I assume that means you don't have PBP 2.60, so I won't need to show an ARRAYREAD example.

Hi again Darrel

Would love to see an ARRAY read example if you have the time ..if not just point me to a place to read about or reference it :-)

Kind regards

Not sure what sort of ARRAYREAD example you are looking for... but here is one example.

I am simply reading in a NMEA string from a gps unit and then parsing the NMEA sentence using ARRAYREAD.

The underscore at the end of each line of the arrayread statement allows you to wrap the text so you do not have such a LONG sentence, yet it is still all one PBP statement.

serin2 gps,188,3000,tmout,[WAIT("$GPRMC,"),STR GPRMC\63\"$"]

arrayread gprmc,[DEC2 hh,DEC2 mm,dec2 ss,_
  wait(","),fix,wait(","),DEC2 latdeg,DEC2 latmin,wait("."),dec4 latminn,_
  wait(","),NS,wait(","),DEC3 londeg,DEC2 lonmin,wait("."),dec4 lonminn,_
  wait(","),EW,wait(","),dec knots,dec Knotss,dec course,_
  wait(","),DEC2 dy,DEC2 mt,DEC2 yr]
