Framing error if I disable transmitter after shift register is empty?

[richard]

when you disable the transmitter how are you setting the tx pin
code ?

I'm not doing anything to it. Should I?

explain how disabling tx-module sets the pin to "tristate"

[Demon]

I'm not using tri-state yet, cause for now I have only two PICs talking, and they're not sharing any lines (but I will be the future, hence why I'd like to master enable/disable of transmitter).

It's direct TX-to-RX and RX-to-TX with 1 set of 4K7 pull-ups.

Right now it's only an exercise.

yet when tx is disabled the pin is hard driven to logic 0 , explain how disabling tx-module sets the pin to "tristate"

[Demon]

I'm not setting anything to tri-state, yet. Using TXSTA.5 = 1 / TXSTA.5 = 0 is just preparing myself for when I will use Usart pins in tri-state.

I thought I could just turn Usart TX and RX on/off whenever I wanted (when nothing was in the buffer).

Or was that a wrong assumption?

post the code . no point guessing
