Heckler,

The SBL2e's serial port is connected to the PIC via 2 general purpose I/O pins. I wanted to be sure I didn't have any issues with signal polarity (that always seems to bite me), so I just used the SERIN2 and SEROUT2 commands with a couple of I/O pins, instead of using the actual hardware UART. That's really all there is to the hardware hookup! The code isn't a bit complicated, but unfortunately I can't post it as it was a work project. If you just be sure you have common baud rates and the other serial issues (parity, etc) set right, I'm sure you won't have a problem. As I said, support is in the US, and they're very helpful and easy to deal with.

Good luck to you!
