ok
well our instructor decided to change the school project to using serial instead of parallel communication
i am using pic code for the first time and im not sure how to get the pic to capture the input from the 8 switches and output it.
which ports on the pic do i use?
because when i was checking out the pic schematic, all the ports could be programmed ?!
how do u determine which ports to use and how would u modify the code that SuB-ZeRo gave me for serial?? (thank u very much for ur help SuB-ZeRo)
finally, how do u setup the baud rate??
let me explain
the pic takes the input from the switches and outputs to the serial port on the computer
if i setup the pc's com port to use a baud rate of 9600... how do i setup the pic to output at that baud rate?
please keep in mind, i have never used a pic before but that doesnt mean that u cant throw some moderate code at me... just that ill ask questions later!
thanks for all ur help
