Ah thanks for pointing that out. I was using a max232 with 'n' and not 't' :P

Working code:

Code:
Include "modedefs.bas"

OSCCON = %01100000      'set for 4mhz internal
CMCON0 = 7              'TURN COMPARITORS OFF
ANSEL  = %00000000      'Set A/D OFF
ADCON0 = %00000000      'Analog converter OFF 

rcx var GPIO.4 'input pin
tcx var GPIO.1 'output pin

stat VAR byte

Main:
serin rcx,t2400,STAT
pause 100
 SEROUT tcx,t2400,[stat]
GOTO Main
END
Is a max232 needed? I haven't had much success without it in the past but I might consider trying to lose it since space is a bit tight in the dongle case.
