Problems with SERIN2 using PIC16F689

[jesusbaez]

Dear Sirs,Madams:

I am having problems to implement Serin2 in a pic16f689.

This is the code I am using:

MainLoop:
SERIN2 Rxpin,84,[STR test8/8]
'instructions to process incoming data and reply with data (i.e. serout2)
Goto Mainloop


Where

Rxpin: Rx pin (PORTB.5 in PIC16F689 and PORTC.7 in PIC16F877A)
84: 9600,8,n,1
test8 declared as var byte[8]


This code works fine with PIC16F877, waiting for 8 characters to be received before processing incoming data but it does not work with PIC16F689.

When I run it in PIC16F689, it does not wait incoming data to arrive and executes instructions to process incoming data.

Your help will be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Sincerely,

Jesús Baez

PORTB.5 on the 16F689 is analog at power up. Place ANSELH=0 in the top section of your
code to disable A/D on this pin.
