serin and serin2??? need to understand

[tkly36]

'using pic16f84

INCLUDE "modedefs.bas"

DEFINE CHAR_PACING 1000

kdg var byte[3]
i var byte

pause 2000
here:
SerOut PORTA.0,t2400,["input value from 1 to 200",13,11]
pause 1000

i=0
start:
serin PORTA.2,t2400,[kdg[i]]
i=i+1
if kdg[i]==9 then start

SerOut PORTA.0,t2400,["the value your enter is ",kdg[i],13,11]
pause 2000

where is the wrong in my coding?
how to make the serin accept more that 1 character.?

ok
i use 2 pic16f84a.

1 for send variable data. (pic1)
1 for receive the varia ble data.(pic2)

pic1

INCLUDE "modedefs.bas"
DEFINE CHAR_PACING 1000
define osc 4

digit1 var word
digit2 var word

digit1=0
digit2=0
start:

if portb.0=1 then
digit1=digit1+1
end if

if portb.1=1 then
digit2=digit2+1
endif

serout porta.0,n2400, ["OK",digit2,digit1] ' send OK 1st, digit2 2nd and digit1 3rd

goto start
end

pic2

INCLUDE "modedefs.bas"
define osc 4

nilai1 var word
nilai2 var word

nilai1=0
nilai2=0

lcdout $FE,1
lcdout "ready"
start:

serin porta.0,n2400, ["OK"],nilai2,nilai1 ' recieve OK 1st (true),2nd put digit2 to nilai2 and 3rd put digit1 to nilai1

'for see the input value

lcdout $FE,1
lcdout "Nilai"
lcdout $FE,$CO
lcdout DEC3 nilai2,DEC3 nilai1

goto start
end

i hope this help u abit
if u send data( serout) the another must ready to recieve data(serin).
that is very importent

thanx

sorry not mention early about my situation...
my project is about communicate from PIC to computer
i'm using hyperterminal to communicate with the PIC.
but when i try input a number as example 100 or 11.the monitor show only the first digit of input of the number...

i hope you can explaine more on serin command..
