OK so you're having an issue with the example code.

Can you post the code you have, we can then review it for errors or problems?

[andrewwaack]

here is the example code

' SERIN & SEROUT Commands
'
' Upper case serial filter.

Include "modedefs.bas" ' Include serial modes

SO con 0 ' Define serial out pin
SI con 1 ' Define serial in pin
B0 var byte

loop: Serin SI,N2400,B0 ' B0 = input character
If (B0 < "a") or (B0 > "z") Then print ' If lower case, convert to upper
B0 = B0 - $20
print: Serout SO,N2400,[B0] ' Send character
Goto loop ' Forever

thanks for any help

I would try something like this:

Include "modedefs.bas" ' Include serial modes

SO var portb.0 ' Define serial out pin <-------You have to define a port
SI var portb.1 ' Define serial in pin <--------You have to define a port
B0 var byte

loop:
Serin SI,396,[B0]' B0 = input character
If (B0 < "a") or (B0 > "z") Then ' If lower case, convert to upper
B0 = B0 - $20
endif
Serout SO,396,[B0] ' Send character <------You don't need print command
Goto loop ' Forever


Try this and see what happens.
