From the manual... SERIN2 part
STR followed by a byte array variable, count and optional ending character will receive a string of characters. The string length is determined by the count or when the optional character is encountered in the input.

I'll try it out.
Went back to 13 bytes b1 thru b13
serin porta.0,n1200 [qual1,qual2],b1,b2, -- b13
which can be done, right?
even added a long timeout.
n1200,1000,start [qual1 etc
but having problems with it too.
I'm just testing each byte for the right number 1,2,4,8,16 etc
even tried t1200 and pullups and pulldowns -- 22k and no resistor.
I'll get it.

Dave, we must agree with Michael, the PBP manual is not realy a masterpiece.
So I think we should give him some help:
START:
SerIn2 PORTA.0,17197,500, START,[WAIT(QUAL1,QUAL2),STR DATAIN\13]
The above is the line code you must use with serin2 command.
17197 comes from 813 for 1200 bauds, plus 16384 (bit 14 set because inverted)
500 are the milliseconds serin2 will wait for data before to timeout to START
WAIT() will wait for the qualifier sequence before acquiring data
Str array_name \ 13 is the command to collect 13 bytes in your 13 byte array
Try it should work.
Tray to read again,(more carefully) the manual (pag 132-136) very likely you will find it more clear now.
Al.

Short and sweet, very elegant explanation Al, thanks !

Great -- I always hate to end up getting code written for me (and I usually don't) but the manual does have problems with being vague.
More code examples would be nice.
Oh well, at least this is added to forum "array" search.
Crystal clear now.
At first, I just saw SERIN2 as "basic stamp" friendly and ignored it -- after all, I've never even touched a stamp so why should I care?
Yet the manual sells it that way right up front.
Thanks kindly.

SERIN = Basic Stamp 1At first, I just saw SERIN2 as "basic stamp" friendly and ignored it
SERIN2 = Basic Stamp 2
So you should have ignored both.

been ill all week and haven't tried this out yet before I burn a chip, do I also need to add DEFINE SER2_BITS 8 ?
Or does it default to that?
Good thing all those mode codes are on melabs site ot that would have been my next question.

Default is
8 N 1
