Hello,

I wrote a program where I'm collecting data using the internal uart of the Pic16F876A.
In my main loop I check the status of the RCIF flag. When the flag is set I'm collecting the data (8bytes).

All is working fine except when I do a 'cold reset' (power off/on) the data is to be sent twice before the pic executes the command.
However when I reset the pic by pulling the MCLR pin low the device is responding immediately.

Someone has a thought how this can be solved or did someone had the same experience?

Thank you
