PIC 2 PIC communication

[Mario]

I'm attempting the same thing with RF PIC-PIC serial communication. Any chance you could clear up a few things for me?

what is the reason for sending ($55,$55,"A",170) instead of just your data? I take it your data in this case is 170? Also, why is the sent data in curved brackets () and the recieved in square brackets []?

Thanks

This $55 just to make you receiver (wake up) ready to receive your valuable data ,so the receiver will wait until it reach to "A" then save whatever you send in the variable....

actually ,the correct bracket is [] for pic basic pro and () for basic one
